Variety reports that 'Harmonious Live!' will be one of around fifty titles removed from Disney+ as part of a new cost-cutting move.

Harmonious show

On last week's earnings call, Disney CFO Christine McCarthy announced the move to remove titles from its streaming platforms.

Hosted by Idina Menzel, Harmonious Live! originally aired June 21, 2022 on Disney+, honoring World Music Day.

Along with special guest Auli'i Cravalho ("Moana"), the live event from Disney Branded Television celebrated the power of music with a medley of classic Disney music reinterpreted by a culturally diverse group of 240 artists from all around the world, all performed by a live orchestra and ensemble of international vocalists.

EPCOT's Harmonious had its final performance at Walt Disney World on April 2, 2023.

I think they added back a lot of the extra fireworks again. I just saw it tonight. Wonder why it happens on and off

Epcot Forever did that!

That’s all Epcot fireworks. Depending on wind direction, someone gets smoked out. This very site started out like 25 years ago with a feature that predicted where you should avoid during IllumiNations if you don’t want to get smoked out.

It happens to be the one show that when it's over just seeing it at the entrance of international gateway or even nearby Riveria even you can see the smoke air the atmosphere. Can't imagine how or if it's healthy in the park.

Wonder if it's a technical issue or too early of a call to not fill the smaller close proximity barges.

Perimeters did start the show.

Luminous is running with reduced close proximity pyro tonight. Basically only pyro that launches from the main barges. Wind doesn't seem that crazy though? Only 9mph with 20mph gusts..

You know what, you've just made me realize a point where it's baffling for them to incorporate one song to with even if it rhythms or blends with the other song. Remember Me is fine because it's about telling saying "remember me". As for "When She Loved Me is strange." this song is about the relationship lost and/or that once was between a girl and her doll toy. The girl didn't pass away. Using death for the segment and hearing "When She" is like saying they loved you only when they were alive and now it's gone.

A permanent giant globe that was raised up from the surface level a good bit would work and be totally in-theme to be out in the middle of World Showcase Lagoon permanently. Jus' sayin'....

Starship824Sep 24, 2024

I totally agree, I think they do need some kind of globe though. You can't just do the show without the globe. I think drones would be the best way to represent the globe and then you have them making different shapes throughout the show otherwise. I would also include flamethrowers on the barges for the inferno barge since I'm not really sure there's another way to do it.

But poster said it's not enough for him to like it MisterPenguin!😜

I feel like if they bring RoE back with the Luminous hardware, it would mitigate all of RoE's flaws, namely that dang Globe that no one could see. The quiet parts could have some pyro, or even just be fountain-centered. It would be a better version of the best show.
