Please forgive me if I just hallucinated, I thought I saw that they would be adding Disney songs to the Country Bear Jamboree.
Original show was gutted for running time long ago. As long as they keep "Davy Crockett"--a true Disney and American music classic--and an Americana sound, I'm ok with this. Maybe even a bit excited.CBJ has been on chopping block for a long time now due to a multitude of issues. First being lack of interest in the show among general day guests, but also, they've been phasing out anything deemed problematic.
Honestly, i'm just happy that the characters are staying around and it's not going full Toy Story at this point. If I had to guess, i'd say that internally they realize that the only group of people CBJ is popular with are the hardcore fans so they're keeping the name and the characters, but Disney-fying it in the style of CBJ.
It's a half-measure.
Meh. It's a fan favorite and adding some old Disney songs like Bear Necessities isn't suddenly going to increase it's popularity amongst the general day guests. It doesn't really fix anything. Magic Kingdom has much bigger fish they could & should be frying instead (hey Tomorrowland/Stitch's Great Escape space, "beyond Big Thunder" proposal, etc.). Admittedly though, I was always shocked "All the Guys That Turn Me On Turn Me Down" lasted as long as it did lmao.The outrage for the CBJ replacement is laughable. You have this tiny hardcore fan base for it while the majority of park guests don’t even know it exists.

I’m already laughing in my head at the bears singing “We Don’t Talk About Brunoooo”If they don’t do any songs from “Home on the Range,” they’re misunderstanding the assignment…
