Throughout the shows, they would show before and after photos of Disneyland... of how it was in 1955, and how it is today. They screwed up a number of times. My favorite was in Tuesday's show... They showed a shot down Disneyland's Main Street in 1955, but for the present-day photo, they showed Walt Disney World's Main Street.
You'd think that somebody from the show or Disney would've caught these.
Sounds like they needed someone to do their fact-checking, which incidentally would be a pretty sweet job: to be a Disney rep in charge of ensuring accuracy in programs like that. Does that sort of role even exist? Maybe something tied in with the Disney Archives and Dave Smith?

I didn't see it either. I wonder if Disney ever let's shows know about those kind of screw ups.

Of course, besides us Disney Park freaks, how many people would notice something like that during a five second video clip?

Good point there. Aside from the couple of mess ups, was it interesting?
Playing tag should be permitted on Tom Sawyer's Island so the guards would stop yelling at me.

It wasn't really that interesting. I'm at work when Regis & Kelly is on, so I never really watch the show. Since they were going to be in Disneyland and Walt Disney World this week, I decided to tape it. It was cool to see the parks, but it seemed to really only serve as a backdrop to their show. There were a couple features and references to the parks, but nothing really exciting.
Almost ALL reports of Disneyland during May 5th were like that...

That's too bad. I remember when they went to WDW over the summer I think? I've never been there so it was interesting to get a chance to see what it's like there.

Yeah, leave it up to those two to make such mistakes. I'd bet they would be lost without their teleprompters, kind of like Ron Burgandy Anchorman.

This may seem off subject, but my local station was there (they are own by Disney) but my station did a whole ten minutes on the news about it. The guy that was there even used the old ABC cameras that they used on the first day.
If anyone has been to DCA while they are doing that Primetime thing (where they have the stars come and talk about their shows) or had seen it, the host Dale Yurong is from Fresno and works for the local station, so he gives free tics to people.
Back on subject:
They are both so stupid, mostly Kelly how did she get to be a host, and Regis is just annoying.
I've gone full circle on my avatars.
