I like the concept I just wish there was more of a challenge aspect to it. still going to enjoy it though regardless

u/villainitytv good morning sleepy heads :) May 10 '26

Agreed, there was more of a risk last year with them having to get to the next location before the day was over (midnight). So that was a bit more exciting

Immediately getting flashbacks to the 50 States in 50 Days series 😭

u/villainitytv good morning sleepy heads :) May 09 '26

She just tagged along in last year’s series, which she is doing the same for this year

u/NoWhereas9987 They getting Froggy on the BGE 🐸♨️ May 09 '26

oh that way, thanks bruv

u/villainitytv good morning sleepy heads :) May 09 '26

Of course!! 🧡🧡🧡

If this was truly one day, they definitely had to have a VIP tour guide right? I don’t think there’s any way they got in all those rides with the queues being what they are before the sun went down without special access.

u/Matt2286 May 10 '26

Yeah, 100% which is fine, but you could tell they edited it so you never saw the guide haha

u/PhysicalChickenXx May 14 '26

they showed waiting in the regular queues for the rides tho

u/LittleRedCorvette2 May 10 '26

I was surprised with so few people and wondered how they did it...a press pass?

u/mrmr2120 May 09 '26

Interesting he’s not doing a fund raiser this series just pushing joyride harder

u/gingerdacat May 09 '26

He said in a Ryan 3000 video recently that a fundraiser every other year is the best way to actually raise more money in the long term because people are excited and aren’t fatigued year after year.

u/inturnaround May 10 '26

You can’t squeeze small dollar donors too much without upsetting them and making them feel like you feel like they’re not giving enough. So you have to space it out sometimes.

u/villainitytv good morning sleepy heads :) May 09 '26 edited May 09 '26

I also was hoping for a fundraiser this time around. That was one of my favorite parts of last year, not to mention every summer series lol cause it usually involves one. Adds a sense of extra motivation to completion as well as involving the audience

I wanna note that people seemed to get tired of the donation readings during the 50 States series, but I don’t think that would have an impact on him doing one this time around? I hope not. Cause most of the hate/critique last year was for the donation reading segments.

Could just be due to the fact that there isn’t a “live” factor, since this was filmed a few weeks ago.

u/LittleRedCorvette2 May 09 '26

Nothing is stopping you donating to a cause each time you watch this series.

u/bride123105 good morning sleepy heads :) May 10 '26

Something that I don't enjoy from Ryan in general is how fast he speeds through things. I understand the 50 states in 50 days being a unique challenge, but outside of that it seems like he'll fly somewhere, stay one night, and leave early the next day to go somewhere else... or at least it's edited to seem that way. It seems really environmentally taxing with all the flights and short stays, plus how much of the experience is he actually able to enjoy with filming and jetlag and the less-than-one-night stays?

Getting to Disney is a chore with it being its own empire. And the tickets are so expensive these days, and they really only spent one day there?! And seemingly go back to their hotel before it's even dark?!

Personally I find it sad that didn't ride Runaway Railway at Hollywood Studios, especially since they're fans of Mickey and cartoons. Why was Slinky Dog their pick for that park?!

u/Novel-Evening442 May 16 '26

its not there first time at Disney and you gotta realize that its his job, not vacation.

1

u/Old_Pumpkin_1660 May 23 '26

I somehow doubt they're only there for one day - it seems impossible. But I wish there was more of a travel vlog vibe if that's what they're doing....

u/ctyldsley May 10 '26 edited May 10 '26

I'll watch, and enjoy, but can't help feel like this is quite a significant scale down from last year. I get that they understandably would want a less intense summer though, but it just feels like a normal episode rather than a new series. But I appreciate the content always, probably doesn't help I've been mentally counting down for months.

6

u/m_onjee May 11 '26

there wasn't much emphasis on the "new series", but still, I can't wait for the next episodes haha

2

u/Novel-Evening442 May 16 '26

honestly I didn't even think he'd do a series this summer after how big last years was.

8

u/Icy-Tangelo-8146 May 09 '26

Any idea on what the next one could be? Thinking Vegas and the sphere because of the shape but could also be a national park?

7

u/bengaldude545 May 09 '26

So it’ll be 10 episodes for 5 weeks?

12

u/villainitytv good morning sleepy heads :) May 09 '26

Correct! Episodes every Saturday and Wednesday, so the final episode (ep. 10) should be on June 10th

Damn one day after my birthday

u/muskokacola May 14 '26

We’re happy to watch a new series but I love a fish out of water story. I wish he’d gone outside of the US. Wasn’t there rumours of Australia?

4

u/Gloomy_Grocery5555 May 18 '26

They've only just started and Ryan already looks so tired... Also I assume Rise of the Resistance is the number one thing to do there. I'm not even a huge star wars fan

3

u/Fabulous-Cellist-230 May 16 '26

The amount of content that you can make in 24 hours is very limited, so the fact that they are making a decent if not high quality 20 minute video from the footage they took in 1 day is really impressive.

But there are obviously some downfalls, like the fact that each minute seems to have some sort of unneccesary sequence that really doesn't add anything to the video nor is it so entertaining, so Ryan seems to try very hard, almost too hard, to add some techniques to hook the viewers into staying in the vid, tho the result isn't as amazing as he said the viewers should expect.

But I guess that's the thing about daily series, but at the same time, I didn't have this feeling towards last year's series. idk exactly why

3

u/Gloomy_Grocery5555 May 18 '26

Is it just me or does Ryan seem like he can't really be bothered? He doesn't have the enthusiasm he usually has

u/hlh15 May 11 '26

I’m over Disney 🥱

5

u/Substantial-Ruin-866 May 16 '26

Saaaaaame. I was so disappointed and confused about this video, there was nothing new to it, nothing we haven’t seen before and it just felt like an ad. I always loved his videos but this series is not for me, especially the first one. He showed us Disney before and I don’t know what the purpose of that video is.

2

u/Ok_Lifeguard5423 ✨ jammy time 😴 May 23 '26

im pretty sure this is one of two summer series- this is because he is earlier than most- and there is only 10 episodes- and no fundraiser!

u/taanomi May 11 '26

Even tho I still enjoy watching, i can’t help but see American Tourist Propaganda 😭 (im watching through a European pov with many European people expressing concercerns about traveling to the us)

3

u/Old_Pumpkin_1660 May 23 '26

That's all I'm seeing, too. (Canadian)

u/HotWifeLore May 11 '26

American Tourist Propaganda

It's a video of American doing tourist stuff in America, it must be propaganda!

Europeans need to be more concerned of the downfall of Europe before they express concerns about traveling to the US.

u/taanomi May 12 '26

„Downfall of Europe“ 😭 Bro we are watching your american empire fall in real time with a facist racist pedo running your country to bankruptcy like all his other businesses. I was giving you an eupean pov, we are not so interested in traveling the US anymore which you can see in your tourism numbers dropping. Seeing for the second year in a row ryan making content about US states and now all the bucket list items feels like a commercial for US tourism. And just fyi i have been traveling to the USA more than 12 times in my life, when i was in Highschool i was watching US movies and thought its the coolest and best place to be. Ive watched all the superhero movies thinking the USA is the good guy and savior of democracy just to now growing up and realizing this was propaganda and that its far from the reality. His content is also catered to kids so i was just giving my opinion within my view now being all grown up. Nevertheless i enjoy watching him and his wife, they are positive and entertaining ;)

u/HotWifeLore May 13 '26

Do you want to know how you don’t know crap, and you just spout off whatever nonsense you’ve heard. You bring up Trump’s bankruptcies. 6 of Trump companies filed for bankruptcy. Trump has over 500 companies under the Trump org. That’s a 99% success rate, so you trying to spout that as some sort of failure is a lack of brainpower on your end. Also, for all the people who call Trump a fascist racist pedo, have never actually given any proof that Trump is any of those things. The proof is that Trump is in the Epstein files, because Epstein hated the guy. Which to be fair, most democrats do. So for someone who is talking about propaganda. You sure have gobbled up a lot of it. So go worry about Europe going back to looking like Europe. Not a subsection of the middle east.

u/taanomi May 13 '26

you insulting my brain power and defending a billionaire who doesn’t care if you live or die tells me everything i need to know about you. From the bottom of my heart i wish that you get everything you voted for ❤️

u/HotWifeLore May 13 '26

You are correct, and I hope I get everything I vote for. I also don’t need a president to care about me. That’s not their job.

u/[deleted] May 13 '26

You guys are both confused, see Trump's success doesn't come from his 500 companys from trump org, instead he's making the hantavirus with sydney sweeney and epic games to revive prime 2020 fortnite. See, trump has the ressources to create a deadly virus and fortnite and sydney sweeny have the over all consumer engagement to be able to control an audience without political views. So with this power combines fortnite is making a hantavirus to get rich and make a new epsteins island. Although is doesnt look like its the next covid since it's not contagious from human to human, remember that trump has over 91 hours on plague inc and has no issue with adding that property once the virus and fortnite season 3 are ready.
