In the wake of Bluey, I noticed that the chicken al pastor potato has been replaced by the Bluey pizza potato. I was hoping it would be there when I go back later in April.

This egregious evil will NOT stand. I want my chicken Al pastor potato!

Theme park company once again whiffs totally foreseeable capacity issues, water is wet.

CM's seemed to not know what was going on. Like you could ask one person and they would have no clue while other's would give answers

So it was for sure just a hard day for the cast. Hopefully it will get easier as time goes on

So Bluey is an actual show? That's great. Hey, at least the Fantasyland Theatre is being used for an actual show. First time in over 2 years.

Yes, it has show times and inbetween are suppose to have games and dancing but at least day one is was too packed and they mostly just did shows

I agree, its eating up 1,000-2,000 people at a time and while we'd love a bigger show....its doing its job and having a bunch of people in it most the day

Having watched the show — any idea why they didn’t try to do this at the very empty Hyperion Theater? Seems like that would be a great draw to DCA and could obviously hold a lot more guests.

I assume its because its suppose to have dance party s and games in between shows

The Hyperion isn't really built for that, if they just do the show and have mini games in the Q area where Deadpool's show was that could be a work around but they could be worried the Q area isn't big enough for the Photo ops and games and what not.

I at least hope this shows Disney people are down for shows if its the right idea

Also a note on shows, They are having weekend Peir concerts at DCA for food and wine (at the stage where WOC is) and when I went last weekend, it was packed at both shows we saw.....so I just hope Disney is seeing how people want shows and Disney needs to do better providing them because DCA has with the DCA pier stage 3 stages not being used (Hyperion and the little Hollywood stage as well)

Plus if they redid the Redwood creek trail area where Santa meets into a real outdoor stage, I'm sure a hoppers show would do well there but yeah...they just don't see to care about doing shows in the past 5 years but I am hopefully after Bluey they will start looking into ways to make shows people want to see

Good point, that makes sense.

Are the crowds for Bluey more manageable now and was it just the first day craziness? Haven’t seen any photos of long lines since. Reminds me of how quick the Walt Disney show lost its crowds.

Fresh baked went there on Monday the day after....it had a lot of people but nothing like Sunday

Some weekends might get busy but I think it should be much easier to see now

Total random question, but my fiancé and I are headed out there in two weeks (21st through 26th), and he is a total Kingdom Hearts nerd. The Key to Disneyland toy is effectively the closest thing we will get to an official keyblade of sorts, haha, and I just wanted to make sure the experience is still going on (and that they are still being sold!)

Definitely still going on and definitely still being sold as of Sunday.

From Fresh Baked's latest update, there is a bit of a rumor regarding Rodger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin. When it reopens this Friday, the manual spinning will be removed and the cars will rotate/spin by themselves. From the sounds of things, this is to make the ride more kid-friendly to allow lap seating for younger children, something which they couldn't offer previously due to the manual spinning.

If that's the case, I'm not gonna' be too broken up about this. While the spinning was fun, it still took a bit of effort to get going. That and the ride is nicely themed all the way through, so it's still going to be the solid ride that it is even with the controlled movements. Compare this to something like Cat in the Hat at IOA which was legitimately hampered by the loss of its wild program...especially with certain scenes being very bare as you were supposed to be spinning wildly through them.

Wow that sucks. I mean not so much I can still enjoy the ride without making my arms sore but wow, end of an era. It’s a shame it’s going to get Cat in the Hat-ed.
