    Can't wait to see what Tiana's looks like in thirty years! Off to a great start!

    Courtesy of ChatGPT: Name: Dr. Worm Species: Earthworm Occupation: Self-taught Bayou Musicologist & Accordion Virtuoso Instrument: Button Accordion (custom-built for worm anatomy) Backstory: Deep beneath the mossy floor of the bayou lives Dr. Worm — not a doctor in the traditional sense, but a passionate scholar of bayou beats and backwoods boogie. Ever since he wriggled into an old music box buried in the mud, he’s been obsessed with learning every kind of rhythm that echoes through the Louisiana wetlands. Cajun, zydeco, jazz, even old riverboat tunes — Dr. Worm knows them all, and he’s got the footnotes (and wormholes) to prove it. Dr. Worm crafted his own tiny accordion out of bottle caps, fishing line, and a discarded harmonica reed. He might not have hands, but that’s never stopped him from bringing soulful squeezebox melodies to every critter gathering from dawn 'til dusk. Though he’s soft-spoken and polite, Dr. Worm is full of surprising wisdom and unexpected grooves. He joins Tiana’s Mardi Gras mission not just to play — but to document the rhythms of joy, community, and celebration. Fun Fact: He insists on being called “Doctor” out of respect for his lifelong study of music (and because he says, “Professor Worm just didn’t have the same swing to it”). Catchphrase: “Now that’s a rhythm worth wrigglin’ for.”

    California still has the mist but it looks like WDW's is gone for good.

    They should hear that dude out and do the opposite next time.

    I doubt they ever considered making the attraction a book report (I think Frederick Chambers' pitch was, but unless he somehow got his hands on the original plans for the retheme before it was announced and claimed that he came up with it himself...). The most frequent complain about the film I see is that the first black princess is an animal for most of it. Chances are they wouldn't have had her be an animal for most of the ride too.

    An actual worm. He lives like a worm.

    Wait, stop, I'm sorry. Are you kidding me? The big amazing swamp fog (or whatever) effect they touted for months that turned out to just be poorly positioned mist machines is just... gone?? So, like, the main lift is just... colored lights now? Good lord.

    He's not a real doctor, but he is a real worm.

    I think I've lost count as to how many former storylines this ride had. Salt mine (still in the queue)/secret spice, lost trumpet (screen in-ride), need a band... What other ones am I missing?

    They didn't need Tony. They had a former-accountant/financial-person-turned-Imagineer in charge of the project! What could go wrong?

    I'd buy that. It'd be even nicer if they didn't use such a dumb font for "Reaching New Heights".

    Thank you both. I guess I just always got the tiny version before. As for the light, it hit me every time during previews. This time I was in the front (where I'd been before) and it seemed like the light was pointed up. So it was probably broken (final Tiana was static too). But at least none of the jets in the tiny place hit me in the head this time 😂

    How unfortunate. So much for "True Bayou Magic"
