When Will Disneyland get it's own Christmas Travel Channel Special?

I am tired of these Samantha Brown Christmas Specials about WDW. Why not do one about DLR? They could easily do a 1 hour holiday special about The offerings at the Disneyland Resort, going in depth about HMH, Small World Holiday, the decor that covers the park, the gingerbread house in the Ballroom in HMH, new main street lighting, soo much to talk about! Who Agrees?

Re: When Will Disneyland get it's own Christmas Travel Channel Special?

When Disney pays Travel Channel to head over and film, they will.

And that will never happen, since Jay would rather sweep DL under the rug and give it's younger and shinier cousin all the specials.

Because Disney wants people to prefer a vacation to WDW before DLR.

Keep in mind WDW costs a lot more to go to than DLR, get what I'm saying here?

Re: When Will Disneyland get it's own Christmas Travel Channel Special?

They did one where Sam did both DL and WDW. It mostly about WDW, but they did show more of DL than I thought they would.

I do remember seeing it, I think that was last years version of the WDW Special. It was 90% WDW and 10% DL. Not enough for me XD.

Oh, I agree. But, it's definitely more than we've gotten in a while.

They'll do it when they do a travel channel show on just DL.






Have they done that yet? I haven't seen one!

Re: When Will Disneyland get it's own Christmas Travel Channel Special?

I think this is great.

I'm always looking for new shows on the travel channel about Disney.
All the ones I have watched are permantely recorded.

I can't wait for a new one

Anybody know of another channel that does shows about Disney besides the History Channel

That's not it. It's because WDW relies of tourists coming from many miles away much more than DL does.

The travel channel shows are just huge advertisements for WDW. The DLR doesn't need it because that's not the type of guest it attracts.

Re: When Will Disneyland get it's own Christmas Travel Channel Special?

When they take down the fake snow from everywhere and let Southern California be Southern California. I don't know about you, but 'fake snow' doesn't make me feel like Christmas is all the more magical or make me feel cozy or anything. It kind of looks gawdy. What happened to 'less is more'? What happened to just putting up the Christmas Tree and wreaths and garland and lights? Why the 'fake' stuff? It doesn't snow in Anaheim.

So Fake Garland, Fake Trees, Fake Wreaths - OK
Fake Snow - Not OK?

You probably have more affinity toward Deck the Halls, than Jingle Bells, Frosty the Snowman, and I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas, too?

Snow leaves a lot of people feeling cold.

Back to the main topic, yeah, I don't like that Disney calls their Christmas Day Special the "WDW Christmas Day Parade". Close to half of the stuff is from Disneyland. The name of that special Drives me crazy, and don't forget the signs that put up in DL the Day of the taping saying that it is the WDW Special. UGGGGGGGH!!!

I just have a thing regarding the 'fake snow'. I don't care about the fake tree/wreaths, garland and such. They are fine with me.
