So Bill Rogers is now also WDW's announcer or is that someone else?

Saw and (mostly) heard the new tag while walking from GF to MK tonight - really a lovely addition. The Water Pageant has always been a gem, and I’m so glad this change only enhanced it.

We are planning on heading to the Contemporary.

Should be viewable from the Resort Monorail platfrorm as well. I don't know when it passes MK anymore? Does it??

Is the Electrical Water Pageant still viewable from outside the Magic Kingdom or do you have to go to one of the resorts?

Could've been worse... he could've called it "Disney's Polynesian Resort and Casino"

This is a really awesome addition. I don’t think I would have minded some updated animation for the existing portions, either, haha! A great idea.

I saw the show tonight around 10:30pm after exiting the Magic Kingdom. Was thrilled to see the new 50th elements ....and delighted that it includes more then just the 'logo'. I won't spoil it for those who have yet to have seen it.... Make an effort to view this. Truly looks great during those 50th segments...a real plus to this long running classic. If nothing else, THIS was a truly welcome addition for the Properties' golden anniversary! :) -

Yeah I’m at the Polynesian now and heard the “spa” announcement. My partner and I both thought that sounded odd.

Did the announcement really say “Disney’s Polynesian Resort & Spa”? Haha, oops! Otherwise, it looks great! I’m a huge fan of the EWP, and am always worried its remaining time with us is short (just look at Lights of Winter’s “obsolete technology” 🙄). I love the show so much, I recreated some of the floats in Illustrator and, with the help of my Pixel Stick, brought them to Vero Beach. 😊 I can’t wait to see the updated show in person!
