The parades are no where near as special as in the past. They meant so much more when they were telecasted live.
sweet, wil be there opening night for CHristmas Party, maybe they’ll need some family extras =)
the holiday parade is so scripted to look live. The crowds are required to cheer for the whole time the camera is on them and then so much more is added in post production. In an attempt to make it look like fun, it looks unreal.
