Her name is Kryssa - I saw it spelled that way when I had the captions on the tv. Its ok to watch one time but her facial expressions and perkiness make me want to shut off the tv!
I was just at Disney POR this past weekend and I too was very disapointed that there was no more Zip A Dee Doo Da Tip for the day! The top 7 show, well I never watched the whole thing, but my 3 and 4 year old DS loved it. Anyway, to answer someone question about the old Mickey cartoons, I saw them while scrolling through the channels, they were way up high.

I have to agree that Krista is a very annoying Samantha Brown wannabe....
I wish her no ill will....I just don't want to see her on tv anymore.
I think she's too hyper and not funny at all. And we used to love to keep the information channel on while we were getting ready in the morning or whatever -- now we don't.
and hope someone from Disney is reading this....
our family also does not like to watch the channel since Krista
is the hostess - we have also turned on the Spanish channel to hear the song
DISNEY - Bring back Tip for Today!!!!, please.
I was just posting to let people know that the Zip A Dee Doo Da tip for today was still available! I had no idea it would turn into a 4 page diatribe! LOL!!!
And yeah, after I posted, I saw her name is Krissa.
And I gotta ask....WHY can't you turn that darn captioning off on the Disney TV?! I tried REALLY hard!!! I even found the menu part that said it was off!!!! LOL!!!!!
I say run Krista and Zippadee together to break things up. She can get a little annoying over and over again. But she's not that hard on the eye's so it can be okay. I do miss the Tip for Today though.

You can see the Disney Cartoon Clips on Chan 96. However on some TV's they have blocked this channel in-room. I even brought my own universal remote in once to try to get it and still couldn't. But luckily I taped hours of it on a past trip and have it to play at home whenever I want. I don't know if all of the hotels have blocked this station yet. It seemed to happen at about the same time DVC rooms went DVD.

Ok, this might seem like a dumb question, but are you saying that if we bring a blank VHS, we can tape anything we see on our resort's TV, such as the Disney Cartoon Clips and, (God forbid), Krissa?

My memory is fuzzy on this point, but I think some of the channels are duplicated, with a captioned version on one channel and a noncaptioned version on another. In this case you cannot turn off the captioning. I'm not sure whether you ever can turn it off.
I hated to turn on my TV after the first day because it automatically comes up with Krissa! Very annoying and nothing like Samantha Brown. You would think I would find them both annoying since Krissa is copying her style, but Krissa is more like a caricature of Sam that exaggerates her subtle idios.
I wish we could program the TV to come on with a different channel! Why didnt they just get Samantha to do it?
I agree that she is annoying. She drove me nuts all week. She is super excited about everything and does nothing but smile. And that Goofy blush - she does that twice
