Just off the Dream with late seating, and our shows started at 6:00 pm each night. Except for the night they showed a recent movie in the Walt Disney Theater (we had Ant-Man and Wasp for our sailing). Due to the run time, it started at 5:15.
I get why cruise lines seem to all trend this way, where the late seating show is prior to dinner, but am I the only one that misses the days when the late seating show was after dinner? I used to love the feeling of having the ship to myself while all the early diners were back in their rooms getting ready for dinner. Now the show times cut into my pre-dinner nap.

We've done late dining for 11 out of our 12 cruises and the show has always been before dinner, never after. If the show was after dinner for late dining, it would be at something like 10:30 pm and I don't recall them ever doing a show that late other than movie premieres.

I am not talking about DCL specifically and, according to your signature, this was before you started cruising. When I first started cruising in the early 90s, the late seating show would be after dinner (yes, it would start around 10:30-11).
