Behind the Attraction (Disney+)
First 5 episodes are up:
Jungle Cruise
Haunted Mansion
Star Tours
Twilight Zone: Tower of Terror
Space Mountain
I watched through all 5 and as a huge fan of the parks it's a really informative fun series. Paget Brewster makes a good host and I liked how they spent time going over the differences at all the different parks and the various overlays for special occasions.

I love behind the scenes stuff for Walt Disney parks. Some of it looks like it’s just a commercial for Disney’s latest live action movies but I’ll still give it a watch.
My favorite ride of all time is Pirates of the Caribbean. I’d love to see a behind the scenes episode of that.

Episode 1 of the Imagineering Story has a segment on Pirates of the Caribbean at about the 50 minute mark. It is pretty interesting.

Re: Behind the Attraction (Disney+)
Yeah. I think I knew that and seen name, even popped up in somethings, a failed series maybe, years ago. But, I just loved her back then. So cute. Might still be.

Re: Behind the Attraction (Disney+)
Yeah maybe when I was flipping but I’ve never seen more than 5 minutes of that show. Maybe less. So, how would I know?

I watched the first episode. Kind of interesting but hated the "funny" noises and bad puns. Is this a show for kids or adults? Hopefully those are less prevalent later. Watching someone make multiple "seal of approval" jokes is not how I want to spend my evening.

Did you read the description for the episode? Dad jokes.

I love the parks, but I really wish they picked someone who would treat this material seriously. The subject should be front and center, but much like the ...that made us series, these are more focused on trying to be clever/funny and seeing how many cuts they can fit into each segment.
There is actually some good info and obscure facts in here, even for someone who knows a lot about the attractions and their history. Unfortunately, you have to make it through the horrible presentation.
Ill keep watching because of the subject, but its about as bad as something can be and allow me to still keep with it.

I was so stoked to go to the Haunted Mansion in Disneyland back in 2019, for at least a decade I had wanted to see the Nightmare before Xmas overlay. Love the park and look forward to watching the first episidoes!

Sounds like you've never rode Jungle Cruise. The whole ride is bad puns and dad jokes so that's the vibe of that episode.

I like her as the host and the documentary style (like The Movies That Made Us & The Toys That Made Us). I like the light-hearted tone. The new host for The Movies That Made Us is not good though, when comparing the two series.
I kept joking about The Hall of Presidents being a future episode, but I guess they made one

No, I know that. That is why I said that I hoped it was just this first episode and that it didn't continue. Because it came across like a Nickelodeon broadcast and I wanted a docuseries targeting adults who love Disneyland. I will watch to see if the tone gets more mature, which I hope it does.

I would love that ... I watched Haunted Mansion and Jungle Cruise last night and enjoyed it. Will probably watch Star Tours tonight and am hoping for some Adventure Thru Innerspace .. loved that ride when I was a kid

Star Tours also includes some Galaxies Edge.I loved Star Tours, especially since it uses the same motion system that I worked on in the Navy when I worked on Flight Simulators.
