Disney has announced that beginning in January 2008, the Disney MGM Studios will be renamed Disney Hollywood. This used to be my favorite park out of the frou on the Walt Disney World property, but it seems like in the past few years it has been ignored and not had any improvements or additions that dazzle. It was also a disapointment when they took the actual working studios out of the park. It used to be you could walk through the soundstages and see actual tv shows in production. I remember seeing the Mickey Mouse Club (the one with Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake) being filmed as well as Wheel of Fortune and an adventure show starring Hulk Hogan- oh well, that may be the answer there- but anyway, part of the thrill of going there is gone, although it is still great fun. Fantasmic is one of the most amazing shows on the property and the Indiana Jones Stunt Show is a blast. Hopefully the park will get a new boost of excitement with the name change.
The ups, downs and all around chaos in the lives of show people (and some of us who love Disney.)
