The local fox station is running a story about people going into the utildors and areas that have been closed for years.The ad asks if they are taking the shine off disney by doing this, They show a book in the ad. The website is http://www.fox4now.com It will air tonight at 10 and should be posted after that. If you google it its Fox 4 Ft Myers.

I was in the utilidors 5 years ago, not exactly new information. It's part of the KTTK tour. Didn't take any shine off for me and since it is a paid tour, those that don't want to know what goes on probably won't go. I fail to see any problem at all.

The people involed are not on a tour.They are sneaking into the areas taping and promoting what they are doing.One of the promos is asking how safe is disney if they can get away with this.

Sorry, still don't see the problem. Sneaking in or paying to get in has basically the same end result...nothing! None of the park above is visible from down there, therefore no real connection to those that don't even know this exists.

Sneaking, and taping, and being eaten by the retired Seal Team dogs that patrol the Disney underground.

I don't think it will diminish anything. People who want to know about backstage things won't be put off, and people who don't want to know can avoid it pretty easily. I don't think there are many people who actually believe backstage is anything magical in and of itself.

I like seeing backstage things and have taken most of the official tours offered. It usually gives me a greater aprpeciation of the onstage magic created through the efforts of all the CMs at all stages of produciton.

I watched it last night and it was a plug for leonard kinseys book. There was a ex disney world cast member involed. It had to be a slow news day or it was just to get peoples attention away from the mess that voteing here was. (up to a 6 hour wait to vote)

Six hour wait to vote?! That's insane, I'm willing to bet overall voter turnout in your area was low with many just giving up and leaving or not having time to vote.


Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
