Host: Aaron Rittmaster
Co-Hosts: Tim Hicks & Willie Crocker
Host Aaron Rittmaster and Co-hosts Willie Crocker and Tim Hicks go right back to the Top 9 well, but with a new twist. This time, they take their first look back at Disney History (or, rather, un-history), talking about their favorite attractions that didn’t end up getting built in U.S. Disney theme parks. All of these attractions reached at least the concept art stage, and some were even publicly announced before being canceled.

-
- Hard to understand how this concept could have been so thoroughly botched TWICE
-
- Concepts originally developed for this attraction made their way into Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway
-
- The Excavator would have stretched across Dinoland U.S.A,
-
- The attraction’s story was that guests were visiting a top-secret Swiss bobsled training facility
-
- Mt. Fuji would have given the Japan Pavilion a totally different profile.
-
- Bat-themed ride vehicles invade the Dragon Tower
-
- Geyser Mountain was considered for both Disneyland & Disneyland Paris
-
- Atlantis Exhibition actually had a construction banner in Disneyland Theme Park.
-
- Tony Baxter never gave up on this attraction. Could it be what the WDW Frontierland needs to be relevant again?
