Thank you for supporting live entertainment at Disneyland. The show cast (inculding crew) deserve all of the respect they have asked for. They ARE the "plus" that make the Disney difference!
The plus?
@@Jack_N2_Horror Walt used the term "plus"ing the park.....bringing extra
@@seanquartermus6530 interesting, I can picture Walt Disney using that term. For a moment I thought it meant 3 things “ Disney plus” or “plus size clothes “ and or LGBQT+ 😂
If I want to express my 2 cents to Disney in supporting live entertainment what is the most effective way to do that?
Attend performances. As a 35 year stage veteran, I can tell you, we appreciate you.
The way I look forward to this series every week.
They could put the country bear jamboree inside of the Golden horseshoe I think that would be totally awesome
❤🐻❤O-M-G YES please!!!!!!! ❤🐻❤
👍🏻💖💫That's a fantastic idea!💫💖👍🏻

No virtual queue! No virtual queue!
Bad news it's getting virtual queue only ABC just posted saying it
WHY do they have an irrational obsession with that system those days?!
Live entertainment is a must at Disneyland to continue Walt’s vision and the environment at the parks. Without it, it is becoming just a place for rides. Live entertainment is what makes Disneyland enjoyable for everyone in the family!
I miss the shows at the Golden Horseshoe. We would always watch it during our trip every two years. I really miss it.
Right?
Blue = clean water
Yellow = Natural Gas line
Green = Sewer and drain lines
Red = Electricity.
Orange or Pink = Telecommunications
The triangle can be used as a point location. In other words the Green Triangle could be pointing out where the Sewer or Drain lines are located on the other side of the wall to prevent damage.
Our family love your videos all the way up here in Napa County!
14:20 ATW with his "piping hot caffeinated beverage!" 😆
I'd say 15:20 for the Woo. But that is him. Funny to see him pop in there. He does stand out.
13:48 as well :)
If you saw Adam’s vlog they met up on the Mark Twain.
@@disneymatt01 I. L. Beback. That's righhhttt.
I would really like to see the Haunted Mansion Open in any capacity when I visit from Australia is early September. It was one of my favs when I first went 20 years ago and would really like my husband to experience it also. I am bummed I wont get to experience Winnie the Pooh as it was being built when I visited last time. I am grateful to people posting ride throughs on youtube so I can a least see what I am missing. Thank you Freshbaked for all your vidoes. I have been following you for the past 2 years and feel less and less overwhelmed and prepared to visit and make the most of our time.
Knott's Berry Farm, Six Flags Magic Mountain, & Universal Studios Hollywood are also worth a visit!
Yeah, they need to build a Haunted Mansion Holiday ride in Disney’s California Adventure as well as in Epcot for Florida so as not to tie up the Haunted Mansions.
I think they'd wait until late August, when Oogie Boogie opens for the season to reopen.
One of the most memorable moments of my first trip back after the shutdown was when the Golden Horseshoe pianist made eye contact with me. I felt like he was singing one of his numbers directly to me.
I think the queue will go up really fast once the hole issue is solved. Moving dirt takes longer than building. It wouldn’t shock me if it was ready by the end of August still.
Nightmare Before Christmas in July sounds fun! I think having the opportunity to ride is better than not having the Mansion open at all. I'm not a big fan of the virtual queue but the Mansion is such a large attraction/people eater that reopening it with any queue is great for the other attractions as well.
Watching this while i work spreadsheets from home, jealous of your job
David, Five Fires mentioned he heard the issue with Porto's is their Holiday Policy. They are closed on the Major Holidays. Disney wants them open everyday. Something about the contract for being located in Downtown Disney.
Wouldn’t surprise me. Malls tend to have rules around minimum hours a business needs to be open. Disney taking a maximalist position would seem par for the course
I do new construction electrical and we always mark our stuff in green. Where an appliance is going, or where a lighting fixture is going, etc.
Thanks for the report. I totally agree the cuts in live entertainment is a awful decision for them to make.
Definitely agree on the live shows, it's a crying shame. They really are part of the magic of Disneyland to me, and not having the opportunity for guests to experience that - regardless of popularity - is heartbreaking.
I don’t go to the parks for the rides, I go for the live entertainment and the parades. I am so sad this has been continually decreasing especially at the Golden Horseshoe. Disney if you are listening please please bring these back for us none ride seeking adventurers.
…..I ONLY go for the rides. 🤷🏼♂️
Unfortunately live entertainment is being cut because it’s probably cheapest to cut, Disney has an unfortunate tendency to cut stuff like this when they’re hurting for money like they are right now.
I’m visiting Disneyland this August with my dad for the first time. One of the main reasons we chose that date was to be able to ride the Haunted Mansion but with the Holiday overlay. We are really hoping for it to be open even if it doesn’t have the queue ready.
Better food and a great show and they could make Golden Horseshoe an expensive restaurant! Live entertainment is MAGICAL because you connect with other people in a meaningful way! It is the soul of Disney!
I miss the Can -Can dancers 😢 and open The Mansion ASAP 😂
I did some quick math based on my knowledge of pay rates and hours. Cutting the shows you mentioned will save upwards of $1mil per year. That is certainly just a drop in the bucket of the parks budget.
It’s practically nothing.
I can’t wait to see haunted mansion reopened
Live shows are well worth it. You stop hectic run run run to catch your breath and munch on a churro. Cool off if inside. Worth it
So sad how disney has no idea what they're doing as far as entertainment goes. They're worth over 180 BILLION and can't afford live entertainment? Really?
Oh, it’s not that they can’t afford it. It’s that the fat cats at the top like their nice checks and bonuses. Paying for these performers would mean that they would *gasp* make less and not afford a tenth home or can’t buy that nice private plane b/c of unionized higher wages and benefits. It all comes down to greed. I have voted with my wallet since 2021 and refuse to support those ghouls, and I hope more and more families across this great nation do so as well
Of course they can afford it. The problem is that Disney corporate is infected with same short-term-profit seeking most U.S. corporations are infected with, which drives them to prioritize reducing wage, maintenance, and property expenses (which results in an immediate boost in profit at the expense of product quality, customer goodwill, and long-term growth) over expansion and quality assurance (which sacrifices short-term profit to maintain customer goodwill, grow the business, and secure future sales). With the parks full-to-bursting and making huge profits, instead of expanding to sell more admissions, they tried to synergize with their other products (all the IP tie-ins) and drive profits via cost-cutting. And then Disney+ was an attempt to take the low-profit (still profitable) leasing of their digital entertainment to others and capture all of the profit, but they failed to recognize the limits of that market and the effect of competition in their business plan, so they turned a low-profit source into a negative-profit source, which exacerbated the corporate "need" to create short-term profit from the parks division. And thus we get price hikes, smaller food portion sizes, entertainment cutbacks, frequent ride shut-downs, and ride components not working for moths and years in the parks.
Disney is going down the toilet literally. Their losing billions for poor choices
Especially with the Golden Horseshoe, where it's been a staple pretty much from the beginning, they really should be doing some live entertainment there. You're absolutely right, even a piano player, like they have outside of the snack bar on Main Street would be great. But at this point, I'd settle for a screen showing any old World of Disney recordings of old shows there, like the Golden Horseshoe Review.
the Disney expo, they said that we redid the Country Bear Jamboree , with new Songs and Jokes.
what they really need is to put Fozzie Bear, who is a Muppet in there some where with his Mom too.
Hope to see Haunted Mansion soon!
Who remembers Doc Severinsen? He brought people in from all over. What a great performance he had.
Rumor has it that the sanctum is going to be used as the entrance queue for the avengers e ticket, based on the most recent concept art. I like that idea but of course it could be wrong
My whole family screamed when you said rumored July opening for Haunted Mansion! We’re headed on my kids’ first trip mid August, and I’ve been sad we won’t go on Haunted Mansion as it’s my favorite. That would feel like some real Disney magic for my family if it opened before our trip and we got to go on it ❤️👻
11:14 you can see the ladder coming out of the hole in front of the HM. It appears to be an extension ladder which would tell me that the hole is probably 10+ feet deep. That’s a huge hole! 😮
How can they do that when they are still working on the exit gift shop? I think this is a bad idea, I want to see it all complete.
They are not going to open until August 23 at the earliest. The mansion still in holiday mode.
If they open early it will also be holiday
My guess too.
I hope they are on schedule. The contractor penalties if they are late are usually very very scary.
Also, it looks that they are cutting it down to 1 or so set of actors for the shows that are active.
And finally all of this explains the cheep ticket deal for the summer. Meaning all these cuts were planned before they made the inexpensive summer ticket deal.
Especially liked the “shrubberies” 😂
I personally am very happy the HM will be open with or without the queue! I have an upcoming trip and the idea of so many closures had me debating if I should postpone. This is encouraging news! 👻
I remember in 1968 going to the park for the first time, I was 7 years old. I remember Betty Taylor and the golden horse cast. I specifically remember Betty Taylor with the heart shaped mirror and the lights were lowered and a spot light was shown on the mirror has she sang and reflected the light on the mirror on to guests in the crowd. I also miss the more current Biily hill and the hillbillies. To bad Disney is changing for whatever reason.
I totally agree about the live entertainment! We went to Disneyland right after it opened after Covid and there were no parades or shows yet. The Magic was just missing! We need the live shows. I'm especially sad to hear there are no more shows at the Golden Horseshoe, that was such a part of my childhood. Thanks for all you do, I love your videos.
Good to see a small business like Porto's stand up to Disney. Porto's just wants to *gasp* give their employees holidays off, while Disney mandates that they don't. I hope Porto's doesn't give in to the Mouse. If they don't, it's more of an embarrassment to Disney for announcing Porto's at Downtown Disney before finalizing such details.
We almost got 3rd degree burns watching the Dr. Strange show; kneeling on that hot ground at 3PM in July.
Some of my most cherished memories at Disneyland are of my personal experiences with the Disney entertainers. Rod Miller at the Coke Corner, when he would take his breaks on stage. Herb & Ernie of the Royal Street Bachelors. Fulton Burley and Betty Taylor at the Golden Horseshoe. Farley in Frontier Land/Critter Country. The many, many Dapper Dans over the years. And of course, the numerous face characters.
So many of these entertainers were the reasons I came back to Disneyland and looked forward to each and every trip. Nobody can replace these personable memories of Disneyland. They put me in the mood to relax and enjoy the park. I found I stayed in the park much longer than I planed and came back repeatedly.
So Disney management IF you are listening, these entertainers have been instrumental in me spending MORE money in your park over the years. So stop pinching your pennies and start investing in the people who actually bring in the crowds and keep them coming back!
From what I hear is that Porto’s is backing out and will no longer be in Downtown Disney due to different business decisions with Disney
What blogger or website did you get that information from? I’d be interested to learn more about it.
I think that they are creating a seating area above Walt's apartment for guests who do the tour. The tree in front of the building I believe would obscure the view of the parade if it was VIP seating.
The detail that your camera can pick up is amazing! I love this format with the slo mo and the transitions!!
One can only hope the reason the stage area of *Tom Sawyer Island* begin closed is because they are getting to install or test Murphy. How awesome that be if it was true (but I digress).
The boxes of “tiles” could actually be the brick veneer for the walls!
Don’t necessarily attend the live shows (except Fantasmic and Color on occasion) but do like knowing they are occurring in my periphery.
I am pretty sure I see Adam The Woo where you are talking about doing the virtual queue and he’s to the right taking a picture lol
I absolutely love your videos. We watch them every night ❤ Thank you so much for what you do !
Thanks for all you do Freshbaked!!! I have learned a bunch from you over the years.
Absolutely, I want mansion open asap. The whole point of my November visit is to see it w my little one who loves Jack.
Thxs for the most amazing updates from the parks
Just to toss out an idea on the entrance gates, it could be that the gates were always meant to be a temporary test. So removing the test gates could indicate that the testing was successful and they're no longer needed. So out they go to get ready for the new permanent gates.
Yeah that could possibly be it where they put them on the exit lines as to not obstruct and now they're ready to be reintroduced into the entry lines
@@michaeltompkins5919I hope so! I really hope they add more uses for the magic bands here at the California parks.
1. Crew could be acid washing stone @3:45 to bring color back to stones calcium from water; 2. Is that Adam the Woo @13:48 ; 3. Thanks for the update!
I so hope there is a virtual queue soon!! We will be there in November for my littles birthday.
Great updates today, Fresh Baked! Thank you for keeping us informed.
Congrats on 200k!
thank you very much!
Idk if you noticed but the Pooh corner sign was removed! I also noticed two plastic bags on top of the log infront of the mountain… maybe it’s the frogs!?
No maybe about it.
@@WindowtotheMagic ?
I thought Pooh corner was surviving or half of it
@@kurtrichardson-wv8yk well the shop is turning into a new shop for Tiana’s bayou adventure, it’s sad but I’m excited for the new shop!
@@khelerp I thought half of Pooh corner will be converted not the whole building
Live shows are the only thing that separates Disney from Knotts 6 Flags. Ever since the Mad Tea Party was ended, highly produced, quality live shows have steadily been decreased. Sad the Magical Map ended as well.
Lots and lots of cost cutting.
I like the random chair @ 20:20. Best part of the attraction!
I really appreciate these update videos. I want to plan a Disneyland trip the last weekend of September, but if Tiana’s and Haunted Mansion aren’t open I’m gonna go elsewhere. These videos are great to plan with!
Woooooo right on time for my lunch break!! there we go babyyyyyy
Hey a Adam the Woo sighting AT 13:46!
I have three reactions to this first, it’s ridiculous whenever they charge their regular prices but have such a significant portion of the park walled off, so I think they need to get it opened as soon as possible.
This leads to my second point, do you really want your crown jewel park looking like this when the most avid Disney fans are going to be descending upon that area in early August? Unfortunately, I won’t be able to go to the park at that time but I know most people pair a park visit with the D23 Expo.
Lastly, I’m tired of all the hate I hear Disney getting online, especially when people are comparing it to Epic Universe and how Disney is going to epically fail basically because they’re not responding to the Universal expansion, but I feel like that’s not really a fair comparison. I see Universal as a park that is catered to a very specific audience that is looking for thrills, but Disney is meant to cater to everyone; grandparents, little babies, people with disabilities and large part of that is their shows. It’s the streetmosphere, it’s the fact that you can go to the park and spend an entire day and not have to go on a single ride because the atmosphere was always so inviting and welcoming to every person. Universal just can’t match that, but if Disney starts to lose that, then they really are losing their identity in trying to compete with somebody who they shouldn’t even be trying to directly compete with the first place since they serve very different demographics.
I wonder if they will expedite opening Haunted Mansion early to take the heat off of Tiana's Bayou Adventure.
Love the Holy Grail nod😅
Yes!!!
I brought first timers in 2021 and I'm planning on bringing them back this Christmas for the shows. My Son wanted a rootbeer in a sovenir Woody boot at the Golden Horseshoe and he was looking forward to watching all the shows at the Golden Horseshoe and now there's none. 😢
So true can’t pay a piano player where’s all that extra money from ads on Disney+ and Genie+ and ILL
Green spray paint is used for sewer or drain lines, possibly for the drainage for the landscaping on the mountain
Live entertainment is the key differentiator between Disney and other parks. Was Velociraptor coaster fun in FL? Yes, but the interaction of Peter Pan with our daughter in the Teacup prop outside the giftshop is a lifelong memory for her and us…
wow they’re working so Fast!!! i hope they can be Open and ready By July for both attractions
They should have made Redwood Creek into a Wilderness Explorer theme from Up!
Please keep banging that drum about live entertainment, especially for the Golden Horseshoe! I can't imagine Walt would be very happy about it.
Just my estimate, but I think they can have Haunted Mansion fully completed by the end of October.
And you are creating this estimate based on what data?
@@WindowtotheMagic I have 30 years in the construction industry and have worked on theme park projects in the past.
In regards to The Haunted Mansion, it's better than nothing. Right now, correct me if I'm wrong, 2 attractions and one land are down. Closures are the primary reason for me not going this year.
I miss the Mad T Party live entertainment. It’s been 8 years and my friend and I still talk about it like it was yesterday. And it’s not like they’re doing anything else at all with the backlot.
I ran into you today! Nice to see you!
Hey Fresh Baked!!
Exciting news! Hoping haunted mansion is open by the time I go at the end of the year. Sad to see Dr Strange go. He's my favorite Avenger
I just hope the Disneyland opening of Tiana's is much smoother than the one in Magic Kingdom. The videos I have seen from Magic Kingdom show that the ride keeps getting shut down for hours during the castmember riding tests.
SIlva Cell... I learned a new building material :).
yes, open the ride
I wonder if the new "viewing area" next to Walt's apartment could be used as seating for the Candlelight Processional?
I heard from a vip tour guide that Walt’s apartment they are building something for disneylands 70th anniversary
That makes sense
The Fantasmic Cofferdam might be the fountain heads or the electric for the fireworks barge and shooting rafts for the fireworks positions in the river. 8:02
A lot of the trenches are being dug for running in utilities, water , power ,gas phones . Ever noticed no overhead wires.
My family saved up and planned a year in advance then they closed HM, its by far our favorite ride, we are all sad. I would love for them to open it immediately as we are going in the end of June if they could make a walkway and make it virtual that would be fun
Sorry to hear that you will be unable to ride the mansion during your visit. Maybe next time!
@@WindowtotheMagic yea maybe next time, in about 3 years of saving haha.
There was already a small retaining wall to the right side of the Briar Patch. It had a log facade.
I cannot wait until Hana mansion opens because that’s one of my favorite rides to go when I’m my favorite all the rights on my favorite
it feels like all of the parks are getting rid of shows. Universal got rid of two for the new coaster, Knotts isn't doing as many, and neither is Disney. Sad.
Fresh baked those green lines along the mountain are called lay out lines for exterior walls they may be re enforcing or adding something that needs to be attached..
The back elevator is Not required to open Mansion - they got the ECV 's and Wheelchairs out up the Stretching Rooms for drcades. now they need to finish up the queue and get it finalized. 18:32 green might be the vegetation Line.
FreshBaked!
Im hoping they can get the Garden and Front Lawn in time for the holidays with the old “Family Plot” opening with the return of Haunted Mansion: Classic in the new year.
Green spray paint is usually to represent drainage/sewer lines. Not sure that is what that is but could be a drain line for water runoff.
@ 10:38 the black on the brick wall ( if that is the area you're talking about ) is where the planter against the brick wall use to be.
How do we let Disney know about needing the shows back?
Tell them.
@@WindowtotheMagic Are you being sarcastic? I’ve seen you post the most unhelpful replies on nearly every video for years. Bordering on rude a lot of the time. This video alone you’ve done that 3 times with this question. If you have helpful information please share it, but why are you always giving unhelpful, rude, and demeaning replies?
