Spectro Magic?
Please tell me it's not gone forever. The Electrical Parade is TERRIBLE!!!!! You can not see the characters on the floats, the music is to much, and it looks like something that was thrown together last minute.
Spectro Magic was BEAUTIFUL and AMAZING! Please tell me that it's going to come back!

Actually, it's all a matter of opinion. Many people actually like the Electrical Parade better. I saw it last November and I can honestly say that 1. I saw all the characters fine, at least as well as on Spectro 2. The music, while I like it, was a bit much by the time the end rolled around 3. Well, I can't really comment on this because I have no idea what you mean. It obvously takes a HUGE amount of preperation for an event of this magnitude.
But, to answer your question, Spectro is supposed to return eventually.

Spectro Magic
While I have not seen the new parade in person, we looked it up on you tube. I really hope Spectro is back for our trip in August. I agree that the music was not nearly as good! I watch the Spectro magic on you tube whenever I need a little Disney fix, and just hearing the music makes my heart pound. The music, in my opinion, makes the parade, which is probably why you didn't enjoy it as much. I'm sure that I will enjoy the Electrical parade either way. It's hard when you enjoy and look forward to something so much and it is replaced!

When I was a kid my parents took me to Disneyland and I was in awe of the Electrical Light Parade. I for one was thrilled to hear it would be back.
My wife and I liked it very much, but it was not as good as I remember, nothing ever is.

I have heard rumors that Spectro is getting a long rehab but will eventually be back. However, this is just rumor and at this point, this is turning into a really long rehab if that's really the case. But I hang onto the hope - count me in the camp that hopes Spectro is eventually coming back as I do not care for The Electric Light parade either.

Definitely a matter of opinion here. I grew up with the MSEP and was thrilled to see it return Now I also like SpectroMagic but will admit it was getting a bit stale and really welcomed the change back. I hope they actually come up with an all new nighttime parade that's better than both of them

I didn't realize that it was gone. What a bummer. Just the song that played with that parade makes me think of my kids faces while watching the parade every time I hear it. I do hope they bring it back. Not saying I don't enjoy the Electrical Parade but Spectromagic holds a special place in my heart.

My feelings too! They were both good in their time but are getting old. Haven't watched either for years. A new parade would get my interest back.

Ooooooh, it's the age-old Spectro vs. MSEP smashdown!! Wait, lemme get my popcorn and lawn chair!
But seriously, MSEP does have a special place in my heart because it was the first one I saw as a kid, and because I thought the music at the time was incredibly clever -- to weave all those classic movie themes in with the parade anthem.
But I can see how people prefer Spectro -- definitely more modern. Although I still don't know what those crazy spinning guys are supposed to be...
Many visits over 35+ years!

Absolutely. I grew up with MSEP so it was sad when it was replaced with Spectro, and I grew to love Specrto (except the clown guys on the balls, they scare me). But Spectro is feeling old and I hope they do come up with another version that is even more fantastic

I heard so many people with nostalgia for MSEP, but when I first saw it last Sept I thought it was just okay. I liked seeing something different, but I liked Spectro too.

agree! Agree! Agree!

I believe the creepy 'spinning things' are supposed to be china dolls. My vote is for Spectromagic, hands down, if only for the music.

My vote definitely goes to Spectro. I was looking forward to seeing something new, but was disappointed with MSEP. The music drove me crazy by the end!
