    What was the event where you could be on tv shows? I was selected to be on an episode of Cheers. I think they had Designing Women and other 80's shows. I can't remember what this was!

    Thanks

    yep, saw it back in the '95 trip.

    I can only remember two of the shows.
    David Letterman (guests asking Dave to smash things in an industrial crusher.)

    The Golden Girls (you could also see the Girls' house during the Backlot Tour at the time.)

    This might have been the show where they showed people how to be a foley artist and make sounds for TV and movies, but I could be wrong on this one...

    This occurred in the area that is now home to Drew Carey's Sounds Dangerous.

    *sigh* How I miss Superstar Television and Monster Sound Show (the one where you could be a "Foley" artist and the short starred Chevy Chase and Martin Short. Between the two of them, I've been chosen to be a part of it, not once, not twice, not thrice, but 4 times!!!

    3 times for Superstar and once for Monster Sound Show. Of the 3 times, I had played the butler getting the pie in the face for the Three Stooges skit twice and once chosen as a detective for the Golden Girls skit. Fun times!
    28 times to WDW and still going since 1984!! Most recent visit: November/December 2011...Far too long since my last visit! :'(

    Personally, I believe it didn't start with a mouse. It started with a man that had one of the greatest imaginations in this world.

    The monster sound show was a very cool experience and a great show. The film was classic and really was not dated. You actually felt like you were at a real studio

    Those two shows were great and my family loved them. DHS is lacking something now.
    Your attention please, the Walt Disney World Railroad is now boarding for a trip around the Magic Kingdom

    Is this the same show that had Home Improvement? We never went to it, but I remember something about it on my old Disney Vacation Planning Videos.

    Both were fun shows and I miss them.

    Although the stunt shows are fun, it seems like there is not a lot of actual studio production stuff around the Studios anymore.
    I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way.

    They also used to have a place on Hollywood blvd (I think it's a gift shop now), where a cast member dressed up as a director, and a cue card guy would 'direct' you in scenes. I believe it only last maybe the first year the park was open. They would tape it then sell you the tape as well as broadcast your performance on monitors on the street outside. Fun stuff.
    Sometimes, when you are a Bear of Very Little Brain, and you Think of Things,you find sometimes that a Thing which seemed very Thingish inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open and has other people looking at it.

    Towards the end of it's run (Superstar Television), yes they did include a skit for Home Improvement. They used to try and pick someone out of the audience that most closely resembled Al and they would have pitted against Tim in a speed contest of nailing drywall. I think we all know who wins that one.
