Would it be better if the new Paramount Pinnacle on the former American Adventure site were indoor so it can be open year round?
As Dreamers Do Part Deux
- Thread starter OldNavy1988
- Start date
Are the paramount pinnacle parks related to the paramount parks from our timeline?
Not directly. Paramount ITTL doesn't just slap their IP names on existing rides like OTL Paramount did.

I just received word that a few months ago IOTL, Great America in Santa Clara might close within the next decade.
ITTL, the 49ers are playing their farewell season at Candlestick Park before Chevron Stadium opens next year in the Mission Bay neighborhood in San Francisco proper, the same part of town where the Golden State Warriors opened Chase Center IOTL. With Levi's Stadium simply plopped at a different address ITTL, hopefully that can keep Great America open for a while longer.

Possibly, ofc would be interested to see what attractions would be seen for here.
Paramount still owns Braveheart ITTL. Would that be of interest? Right now, Paramount is still trying to patch things up with the BBC after Scott Bakula's Americanized Doctor Who (known derisively as Doctor Yank) polarized the entire fanbase. By the way, Microsoft co-owns BBC America with the consumer product arm of the BBC. I think it's BBC Worldwide now IOTL, right?
Possibly about Braveheart...would be interested to see what could be done with this.
What's that?
Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Will the OTL 2005 revival series still exist? If so, they NEED to import it Stateside ASAP, and not screw it up!
Hey, at least the Tracy Beaker series is a hit on UPN.
It WAS BBC Worldwide, it's called BBC Studios now, (WARNING, INCOMING JOKE!!:I don't know why, you don't ask me why it's called that and I won't ask you why OTL's GameCube's codename was "Dolphin": NO PUN INTENDED!!)
Fox MLB Signoff after the 2006 World Series
Moments after the Boston Red Sox swept the Hollywood Stars in Anaheim to win the World Series on October 26, 2006, Matt Vasgersian bid a tearful farewell.
Tim McCarver (MLB on Fox Analyst)
"We don't have baseball at Fox anymore, but we have the memories. Tonight, I think, is bittersweet for all of us."
Matt Vasgersian (MLB on Fox Play by Play)
"Bittersweet indeed, Tim. While I personally didn't like how we'd have to pre-empt The Simpsons or the Magical World of Disney for weeknight postseason games, I think the fans who grew up watching baseball on Fox are certainly gonna miss the flavor we brought to every broadcast. Reminiscent of how ABC has handled Monday Night Football or like SBC still does with Wednesday Night Hockey, I think our entire crew did a great job the last ten years bringing the best of baseball to the entire country. Canada too.
*a tear drops from Matt's cheek*
Vasgersian
"Chip?"
Chip Caray (MLB on Fox Studio Host)
"Matt and Tim thank you very much."
Tony Gwynn, Sr. (MLB on Fox Studio Analyst)
"When a network loses a major sports property like Major League Baseball has been for Fox throughout the years, it's almost like when you graduate high school and you and all your old friends go their separate ways. On the other hand, the league's new partners next season, whomever they may be, best of luck to them."
Chip Caray
"And as we say goodbye, we'd like to take one last moment to look back at the last decade of baseball moments that we've had the privilege to bring to your living room. For Matt Vasgersian, for Tim McCarver, Tony Gwynn and Pam Oliver, I'm Chip Caray. Farewell from Anaheim."
*Clips from past MLB on Fox moments accompanied by Celine Dion's "My Heart will Go On"*
Gary Thorne (archive audio from Game 7 of the 1998 World Series):
"Nagy needs one more strike to win it for Cleveland. The 2-2...HIGH FLY BALL...DEEP RIGHT...GOODBYE...HOME RUN...TONY GWYNN...SAN DIEGO...THE DREAM HAS COME TRUE!!!!"
Thorne again (2001 World Series; Game 7)
"The pitch to Gonzalez...A FLOATER TO CENTER! THE DIAMONDBACKS ARE WORLD CHAMPIONS!!!!"
Matt Vasgersian (2004 World Series)
"3-2 to Lankford. The pitch by Foulke...STRUCK HIM OUT! RED SOX FANS HAVE LONGED TO HEAR IT! THE CURSE IS REVERSED! SANTA MARIA!"
Tony Gwynn (archived audio from a post-game interview after the '98 World Series)
"What we've accomplished together...will endure forever..."

That......
Is a beautiful way for baseball on Fox to go out with a bang...
I LOVE IT!!!!
I Wish ABC or NBC or CBS is going to get the MLB Back from FOX or maybe SBC will get it for the First Time.

[1] Major League Baseball's new TV partners are the following:
- For at least the next eight seasons, ESPN extended its existing deal for Sunday and Wednesday Nights plus Home Run Derby.
- NBC will take over for Fox on Saturday afternoons, plus the All Star Game. ALCS in odd years and NLCS in even years.
- Odyssey (shared by Microsoft, Saban and Mattel) will carry games on Sunday afternoons in a Game of the Week format.
- ABC will alternate with NBC on the rights to the ALCS, NLCS and World Series.
Wild Card and Division Series games will be divided equally among ABC, NBC, ESPN and Odyssey.
The ALCS/NLCS and World Series will rotate as follows:
2007, 2009, 2011, 2013: ALCS on NBC; NLCS on ABC; World Series on NBC
2008, 2010, 2012, 2014: NLCS on NBC; ALCS on ABC; World Series on ABC
TBS will still carry the Atlanta Hammers while WGN will still have the Chicago Cubs.
In case anyone's wondering, ESPN and ABC will both share a classic theme song: [LINK]
As part of NBC's acquisition of the MLB rights, Turner, Bally and Disney will team up to buy out the remaining year of Peacock's media rights to the World League of American Football. After 2007, All three will continue to carry the WLAF thru 2012. Yes, that's The Hub's new logo below.

SBC missed out on getting MLB for 2007 but they'll have Arena Football pretty soon.
The ones willing to take the PR hit are Bally, CBS Discovery, Microsoft, TimeWarner, Peacock and Turner.
Cbs owns owns dc so a dc heros park in dubia is feesable. I fought that bally was talked out of the dubia park and were building in japan instead. It seams that if turner builds a park in dubia it will be the first park he built himself
R.I.P. MLB on Fox. Great way to end it, out with a whimper and a bang.

And after roughly a decade in the gutter, at least having MLB should help Odyssey a TON. Now to find a commentator pairing for their Game of the Week.
Are Odyssey and the Hub still Family channels, or are they more general audience channels?
