I love Tusker House and I love character dining. No standing in line for autographs!

It will be nice to have a character lunch at AK. I'm sure if you are not into characters, it may seem like there are a lot of character meals, but it is not as many as it may seem. And there are very few lunches except when they add special ones during free dining. Unless I am missing one, the only character lunches are:
Crystal Palace (MK)
Cinderella's Royal Table (MK)
Akerhaus (Epcot)
Hollywood and Vine (DHS)
This should be a nice edition especially since it contains Donald & Daisy.

I miss the old "best counter service bang for the buck with huge portions of good stuff" Tusker House.
Now it is a full on character meal. Too bad....

I like the idea. I love Flame Tree BBQ, don't like Pizzafari, Yak&Yeti is just OK. But Tusker House with characters will give me another option other than FlameTree. I think this is a great thing!

I guess somebody agrees with me. Paying $15 extra dollars per meal just to see a charachter doesn't appeal to me. As I see it, charachter meals are just an excuse to jack up prices.

I am not going to disagree with you on this. I think the prices on character meals are high, though I think the non character meals buffets aren't inexpensive either.
Since my children are young, the extra price of the character meal can be well worth not waiting in a character line.

Release says from 11 - 2:45pm.... When I go to book an ADR there for Dec 18th it says lunch doesn't include characters.
Is it safe to assume I can reserve an 11:15AM and it will be a character lunch once they convert? or will they delete my current reservation when the system gets switched on 12/4

Based on similar past circumstances, yes.
If you have any concerns you can contact Dining Reservations directly close to the launch date of the new meal format.

I am excited about this. Flame tree always has really long lines. Pizzafari is ok, but you have to be in the mood for pizza. My kids have been wanting to see Daisy and now we have the chance! (Lines are too long on Main streeinin the AM) Plus we arent always the best woth MOVING in the morning and making it to a character breakfast!

I am totally disappointed with this, It's bad enough that they had to get rid of Lilo, Stitch Terk and Jiminy Cricket for this, but getting rid of the nemo package for this? I've totally lost my respect towards Tusker House. I'd rather eat at Restaurantosaurus or Rainforest Cafe. I've heard that the staff is much nicer at those places too.
