Nemo show worth a FP?

[ArielSRL]

For our AK plans we have FP planned for the Safari, EE, and Dinosaur. I am not sure if we will do Dinosaur as I am thinking it may freak out my 4.5 yr old and its no big deal if we miss it this trip. So if we decide to skip it, we would have an extra FP.

We are planning Nemo for the last show (unless things change when/if hours are extended even more for the nighttime stuff) at 5, coming back around 4/4:15 after a break. Touring plans has us getting in line about 30 minutes prior to the show. Is that necessary to get a good spot or to even get a spot at all to watch the show? And if so, would getting a FP for it decrease our wait time at all? I'm thinking if we didn't have to wait as long, we might could hit another quick attraction between arriving from break and the show, or else just take a longer break.

My other option would be to book the 3rd one for the nighttime safari (if its up and running by the beginning of June) or RoL.

Any opinions/insights? TIA

It's a good show and well worth doing. I don't use FP at all at AK, I've never had a long wait for anything other than EE and I really don't mind that line. When I went to Nemo it was a last minute thought, I was walking by on the way to Dinosaur, and thought hmmm maybe I'll see the show. They had already started letting people in who were in the standby line so I just hopped in the line and walked right in. My seat wasn't the best but that was because I'm short and unless I'm either on an isle or right up front, I can't see around whoever is sitting in front of me, happens everywhere I go.

Nemo Musical is one of the better FP uses at DAK.
A real advantage to choice of seating in the show.

Arrive by the start of the FP Return Window, then when they open the doors to those with a FP,
guests can pick from nearly every location in the theater.

Is the same true of Lion King?

Sorta, but the way the theater is laid out for FoLK, it's not such an advantage.
I've done it both ways at both shows and now I only use a FP at Nemo.
