Although we’re excited about everything coming to the streaming service soon, we just heard some news that has us wanting to stomp our feet with excitement!!

During the ABC game show “Don’t,” Ryan Reynolds gave fans a little teaser saying that Dinosaurs would be coming to Disney+ this Fall. In case you were living under a prehistoric rock in the 1990s, Dinosaurs was created by the Jim Henson Productions and ran for 65 episodes on ABC.

Through comedy (not the momma!!) and musical numbers, the sitcom commented on modern life and society through the lives of the Sinclair family. The star of the family was Baby Sinclair (who reminds us of a more talkative version of Baby Yoda from a prehistoric time far, far away).

Dinosaurs was a fun and interesting show that we are honestly so excited to be able to binge again when it makes its way to Disney+ soon! Although we aren’t sure when the release date of the series will be this Fall, we will keep you updated on more news.

News: Disney Is Suing Orange County in Florida Over Property Tax Appraisal

Walt Disney World takes up thousands upon thousands of acres in Florida.

And it should come as no surprise that Disney has to pay a LOT of taxes on said acreage.

But, according to The Orlando Sentinel, the amount of money Disney should pay in property tax, is well, to be debated.

Disney is suing Property Appraiser Rick Singh over its property taxes, saying that its 2019 property tax appraisals were too high. The company has filed a dozen lawsuits in the Orange Circuit Court.

According to Singh spokeswoman Beth Watson, “[Walt Disney World] had been undervalued for decades by previous property appraisers.” Meanwhile, Disney spokeswoman Jacquee Wahler said, “As we have shared before and as a matter of public record, we have challenged the property appraiser’s assessments and we will continue to dispute the errors by the property appraiser as any property owner in Orange County would do.”

According to Disney’s lawsuit, Singh listed the value for EPCOT at $539 million, Magic Kingdom at $504, Animal Kingdom at $435 million, and Disney’s Hollywood Studios at $394 million. Disney didn’t say what it thought its resort’s value was, but called Singh’s numbers “excessive.”

Lawsuits between Disney and the Orange County Property Appraiser’s Office are a regular occurrence. According to the Sentinel, this has been happening every single spring since 2016, and Disney has “dozens of court cases”  pending.

While this can always change again, this is a HUGE development for those planning to head to Disney World this summer. Previously, Disney World temporarily SUSPENDED MagicBand orders after the park closed. But they seem to be back now! However, Disney has yet to update its official website reflecting this change.
