Playhouse Disney changes?

[Cellthing]

Has anyone seen the show since they closed it for a few days? It was said that Jo Jo's Circus was replacing Rolie Polie Olie and that is possibily why it was closed. I believe it was scheduled to reopen the 10th (I think) and was wondering if the replacements took place or not?

 

[WDSearcher]

Yes, they did. JoJo is now a part of Playhouse Disney!

 

[daisylove]

What about Ollie???

Is Bear still there?

I have had a thread out for the past few days trying to confirm this info - with really no satisfactory answer

no one has acutally seen it but someone read somewhere it was olie
someone else read it was pooh
at DL it is olie
but I called MGM and they told me they didn't take anyone out (she was not confident in her answer)

I just called again and was told by someone else at Customer Service - who called to verify and she said that they left eveyone in and just added JoJo!!!!

Rolie Polie Olie was taken out, and JoJo put in it's place. Bear, Stanley and Pooh are still there.

Really??!!! I had heard they were replacing Pooh w/ JoJo. Don't get me wrong...we love JoJo (and Pooh for that matter) but this was the ONLY place you could find Rolie Polie. I am so sad they took them out.

have you actually seen the show? Because two calls to Disney say that they are all still in!

Yes. I saw it this morning.

Rolie Polie Olie is still in the Parade however. Just to clear that up. Not in the show, but still in the parade.

 

[julia & nicks mom]

Yes. I saw it this morning.

Bummer - thank you for clarifying!

I can not for the life of me figure out why they would have taken Olie out - this might call for a letter to WDW!!

 

[DisneyMomx7]

My kids are so disappointed that Olie's out. Why not take Pooh out since we get to see him and have breakfast with him already!

 

[DonnaDuck]

Gosh, this upsets me so bad.

I love Pooh, but Pooh is everywhere...

I agree about the letter to Disney, I may have to do this also. UGH!!

First Disney Magazine, now this!!

 

[TigrLvsPooh]

Wow, bummer. I thought they would add JoJo and keep Ollie.

 

[lclark0621]

Now I am upset! How could they take out Olie!?!

I think I need to make a complaint. Playhouse Disney Show was the only place to see Olie in all of Disney World. How many times do we need to see Pooh? I mean Pooh has his own ride already in the MK!

Olie is also in the parade at the Studios. Just FYI ...

I know but it still isn't the same effect -

my oldest is a girl and I am all for the princesses - but Disney really has a lack of boy favorites and Olie falls into this category - my 19 month old loves Olie - he likes Pooh - but could take or leave him - plus you can see Pooh everywhere!!

This is another case of Disney dropping the ball in appeal to boys!

Thanks for giving me the heads up and helping to answer my question. I myself LOVE RPO and am disappointed that he has been taken out. Yes I would choose Pooh to replace if they would of asked me, and the best of both worlds would of been to keep them all and add Jo Jo. My girls are just now getting to like Jo Jo but they would prefer RPO instead. We love the show no matter and will continue to see it. I was just wanting to be prepared for whatever changes they made.

Thanks for the updates everyone!

 

[Disney Mama 2 Two]

My kids are going to be so so disapointed with this change!!!! They do both like Jo Jo but Olie is a BIG HIT at our house...my ds had a RPO birthday two years ago and we are all Olie fans!

Boo-Hoo...Shame on Disney, poor choice in my opinion.

Is there a fast pass now? I heard they were adding this...

thanks
