Quite the letdown after yesterday, although these Disney shows weren't included in the marathon. Enjoy!

Modern Marvels: Disney World
Journey underground and backstage at the technological marvel that is Walt Disney World. Enter a make-believe world spanning some 27,000 acres, brought to life by cutting-edge technology. What was once Florida swampland now boasts the world's largest theme park. The ride technology ranges from space-age centrifuges to enhanced motion vehicles powered by 3,000 PSI of hydraulic pressure. And hundreds of audio animatronics brought to life through the power of pneumatics, hydraulics, and electrical systems. Walt Disney World is made up of four separate theme parks, each with its own innovations: the 107-acre Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney-MGM Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom. The four parks are all part of a megaplex of a resort. Twice the size of Manhattan, it was the final vision and crowning achievement of a man who spent more than 40 years pushing the limits of technology to create entertainment magic: Walt Disney.

I must agree. It's also a great show to get those "non Disney freaks" into. I wish there were a channel with all Disney shows all the time.

Thanks for the info

I was able to watch a few of the shows and I was so happy when i noticed that there were two new ones! The behind the scenes and Animal Kingdom were both new. The behind the scenes had stuff about the comedy floor and some others. The animal Kingdom had stuff about Expedition Everest it was great.
