The Big Show..

When will the announce this 3-5 year plan?

And your POINT is...

I think they should have left out the phone operators part and kept the P&D part. The only thing I learned from that, or just reinforced in my mind, was that there are a lot of really stupid people in the world (e.g.- Is the lake still there? What's the name of your park?)

They dont' announce it..
just about every major place like this.. be it a park or zoo has a 3-5 year plan. These things take time. They will announce it one year at a time.

Just ordered my tape..

lol

I thought it was so so. =The best parts were Dick walking around the park chilling. Gave you just a feel for the park. I can't believe the Maintenance Forman called Millennium Force "The Millennium Coaster." He should be fired, no wonder the thing always breaks down when I'm there ;)

Awsome show !! We must give Termite Art Productions credit. They did the show for Discovery Channel. However if they cut Dan out,whom we have already seen on national television, we may have saw the P&D segment. (just kidding Dan) Overall great show. Have waited for this show for a long time. I lost some beer also on the MF line shot.

3-5 year plans can change(Coaster plans might not always change!). So even if they did show the BP, it might not always come exactly like what is planned! Just look at the Toledo Zoo's 10-year plan it has changed a lot. I liked the show, but it did seem kinda short. I thought it was funny to see Fascination on the show!

Gang..the BP on the cutout portion of the program did not show anything!..You missed nothing regarding seeing the blueprints and plans for CP's future..There not gonna show that on National TV...All it showed was a Rolled up wad of Prints that could of been plans for a new John for all we know and the P&D director and the cameraman tugging at the Prints..It was Filler for the show...The Models of the Coasters was such a better portion to have missed..Now that was a tragedy to not have been shown to you guys :)

Yes Rob but I'm sure Discovery has a Graphics dept to add parts in..:)

It was pretty nice to see fascination all lit up at the end of the show. Too bad it's now gone. I was lmao at the MF line part. I too, Rob, have been at that point. (which I'm sure a lot of us have) And I was never aware of all the work that goes on overnight after we all leave. I thought it was great that they did a small portion on the Sweeps. They do a great job, and there would be no way the park would be kept so clean without them!

Overall it was a good show, an hour just wasn't enough. The whole P&D thing probably wasn't a big deal. I would have been more interested seeing the models than rolled up pieces of paper.

Going back to the show before it, "Making the Coaster" I thought following MF would be better since it would tie in with the show following it. Oh well

Yeah but they wanted to show two unique coasters. Lightning Racer is one of a kind.. and as much as we hate to admit it.. Steel Dragon is the tallest.. so it made sense for what they were trying for..

I thought that the whole "MF vs. Steel Dragon" part WAS a nice touch.. like how they put the crown on just after MF opened even though they were months away from opening.. hehehe nice touch...
