Bring back the Bedtime Stories on the resort tv's! E-mail added

[TBuss]

This is a major disappointment!!

How much could it possibly cost them to run these two programs?? For my family, these two things insure that our Disney day starts and ends magically. Somewhere in between it occasionally gets a little rough (overtired, hot, etc) but, that's OK!!

Thanks for the e-mail address. I'll send one tonight when I get home from work.

I sent mine. Hope it makes a difference.

WOW! I just got a phone call from Guest Relations! I had sent my letter via snail mail last week. The woman who called thanked me for taking the time to write and let me know that my letter has been forwarded on to both areas - the resort tv programming folks and the folks who decide on the wake-up calls. Cool! At least someone has seen it.

Just emailed separately for both reasons and let a friend of mine in on the address as well....gotta get people to write them on this...I NEED those bedtime stories back by end of Sept...they are a lifesaver for me in early evening when my kids are crashing after a long day at WDW!

thanks for posting the email address!

Our first trip is the end of September and my young children would just love this. Hope its back by then.

Thanks,

I just emailed a letter to the email address provided by the OP.

I asked them to consider bringing back the bedtime stories as they are tradition for my kids since 2003! And we go 2-4 times a year, so we're at WDW hotels A LOT!!!

Hope this works!!!

Hi this is my first post, even though I am here every day reading. I wanted to let you guys know that I have also emailed Disney to hopefully get the bed time stories back.

And this is my second post...and I will email as well.

I'll make the point that at WDW I don't have all my normal "stuff" - which includes disney things like DVDs, music, books, etc. Once we are in the room, we are somewhat removed from the parks magic, and don't have our "stuff" to fall back on - so it is becomes the one time in our lives when we have the LEAST amount of access to the Disney magic - RIGHT THERE ON THE PROPERTY!

How hard can it be to create 2 weeks worth of bedtime shows and just play the tapes? We won't mind if we hear the same stories on our next trip. And ti doesn't have to be live.

Hi -

We plan to stay at the Yacht Club for a week this November and I hear the bedtime stories have been discontinued.

Please consider re-instating the stories. The guests are obviously away from home and the children are out of their routine - including their normal access to Disney things like books, CDs and DVDs - the kinds of things they might enjoy before bedtime. It is odd that the one time we have the least access to Disney is before bedtime while on the Disney property.

It doesn't seem (to me) to be difficult to tape maybe 2 weeks worth of bedtime story shows and simply replay them every two weeks - we wouldn't mind hearing the same stories on a later trip anymore than we mind riding the same rides each trip.

Thanks for listening - here's hoping my 5 and 2 year olds can listen to some bedtime stories!

Jay

Good! I just got a generic email, at least I believe it to be.

Maybe snail mail is worth more to them than an email. I'll try that too. Thanks.

I sent an email message last week and I too received a call from Guest Relations. He apologized and said they were working on something new for this fall, but told me it would probably not be in place for our Spetember 23-30 trip.

My twins really enjoyed both services when we went in 2004 and will really miss them this time (We are really not big Stitch fans and will probably just skip the call.)

I emailed and snail mailed, and I got an email back... they indicated that there might be something new by the time we are there in November...

Disney just called me. I was surprised for the phone call. But I was not happy with what I heard.

Because they reprogrammed their tv programming and because of guests making requests for other things, like information on the resorts they are staying in, disney chose to eliminate bed time stories. That doesn't mean for good, but for now. And instead of one hub controlling all the programs seen at each resort control has been given to each resort respectively. She emphasized my concern got to her and it will go on to the right people to be heard and considered in the future. She did mention a certain website..... but told me although we are being heard, what counts more is the surveys they send out to resorts guests. They send out 200 surveys to past guests from each resort, each month. So, if you happen to be one of the chosen few to get one of those, I suggest you list any and every concern good or bad in that survey. Just thought I'd share. Doesn't look like the bedtime stories are coming back any time soon.
