I think it will depend on the TV. If it's a Google TV or Roku TV, then I'm pretty sure it will be available day 1.

Edit: I looked it up and found all of the available devices. If it's Google, Roku, or Amazon, then it will work. If it's made by Samsung, Vizio, LG or Sony, then it should also work day 1.

How will Disney+ work with a Roku? Will it show up on the screen as a choice? Will we have to load it on there?

That Merry Menagerie at Animal Kingdom is just one of the best things I've seen the parks do!

I wish they could find a way to incorporate this to be an all year thing so I can see in person.

Roku has an App Store (or whatever it's called) and you'll have to add it.

I am wondering this to and guess will find out tomorrow morning - we have one Roku enabled TV and then the other has separate Roku device. Hopefully either app just is added or we can download it

They should just sell Disney-styled sliders (like these) without the slap band or pucks for use with the Magic Bands everyone gets for FREE on EVERY resort visit. .. but, I guess you can't charge full price for things like that.

I think a lot of people would buy sliders to attach to their existing watches (as watches are bouncing back in popularity) ..
I know I would.

You can get them on Etsy

Right .. plus there is the "Magic your band" stickers to customize them. I was just saying that I think Disney is missing out on a opportunity themselves to sell "officially styled" Magic Band sliders. All I've seen them do with the pucks is sell those necklace holders.

Just interesting they would go the slap band route as opposed to just slider/pucks .. but i guess maybe that is just too limited of a market, while a stand-alone bracelet and slider and puck is more appealing to general masses (whether they have a watch or not).

I guess people can just buy these and just use the sliders (if they fit normal watch bands, and not just the slap bracelets)

I don't really want one of these but Orange Bird is tempting me. They need more Orange Bird merch, or a meet and greet.

They could charge a pretty penny for a hard ticket event that included a meet and greet with Orange Bird, Figment, Muppets, etc

I've been shouting this into the void for years.

A rare character after hours event.

With all Disneys upcharge events and after hours parties they've never thought of this.

I know the DVC parties have rare characters but I have nowhere near the money for DVC

runDisney events
"Before" hours events with rare characters. You just gotta run or walk several miles to see them haha.

I did do the races for a while. All the Tower of Terror 10ks until they canceled them, both coasts Star Wars. Have kind of pulled back lately since they are so expensive on top of having to actually travel to Disney.

I would like to do Marathon weekend though.

You'll have to add the channel, launch the channel and sign in.

I don't think I've received a log in - will I be getting that from Disney?

Me neither, I'm wondering if it will be my MDE login.

I'm pretty sure when I signed up I had to use my disney email and password (or perhaps I could have set a new password but didn't, I'm not sure). I signed up through the D23 deal though. Anyway, I expect that's how I'll log on tomorrow.
