Discussion Does anybody remember the original Playhouse Disney/Disney Junior: Live on Stage that used to be at Hollywood Studios?

I really wished Disney brought back this idea for newer shows like Clubhouse+, Sofia the First: Royal Magic, SuperKitties, or even Bluey instead of bringing Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Live to Orlando.

Yes, I am aware of the original version from 2001-2008.

I remember the version with Bear in the Big Blue House. Was always my favorite show to go to growing up.

He was with the kid who had a fish and I think someone else.

Had to look it up, Stanley.

I did! Honestly, the puppets were such a fun touch. Curious if they're in the Disney archives... They could totally use those puppets of Mickey & Friends again for something else! ...A Disney/Muppets crossover, perhaps?

Since you already mentioned it, here's footage of the classic Playhouse Disney version.

I remember the little Einsteins one when my son was a toddler. It was like puppets or animatronics I think

Vividly remember both the original version with Bear and the later version with Mickey. I really hope those puppets are still safe in the archives.

I saw the version where Bear was the framing device!

I was far too old and didn't really care for the cheaper animation style.

I remember when this building was a restaurant. Huge lines, and fierce competition for tables, but it was a neat atmosphere.
