    D23s new format DisneyGeek - really?

    Just watched the new version of Disney Geek. My comment on their Facebook page
    "Sorry to see that Corporate Comms now has control over D23's Geek. Seems like in most instances the "one message" model is taking over everthing at Disney. What that ends up doing is removing emotion, energy, and vibe with those passionate about Disney. you might as well have just posted a news release. Not much difference."

    Carmen capone was (and maybe still is) Director of Corp Comms for Disney Company. Stanek was a "communications specialist" for the Disney Company. Jeffrey I think now writes on the Parks blog.

    You may have a different opinion so check it out - but I think they over-polished the thing.

    Just saw this video and agree with you - it is terrible. Jeffrey Epstein seemed like he was interested in Disney - a true geek. The new hosts are just talking heads.

    And who is in charge of all those disgusting shows with "B*tches" in the name? Especially "GCB". I cannot believe those people are putting these things out with the Disney imprint. Please, will somebody at Disney corporate please stand up and tell these people to leave! We want our Disney back!

    to me, the way things have progressed over the years in many entertainment divisions, the influence of ABC TV and how it grew is huge. And where was Iger before he was CEO? yup.. regardless, about the Geek - many on facebook slammed it (some said give it time, or thank you) but interesting to note that in these AND in the Armchair archivist the folks in front of the camera are many times the same ones behind it as well. so they're not actors- they are THE communications/marketing people. Makes you wonder sometimes...
