Defunctland Season 3 (Trailer)
In the third season of Defunctland, Kevin and company return with 22 more stories of defunct rides, parks, and themed entertainment experiences. The season will explore the revisionism of the past, the industrial tomorrow, dystopian futures, and the reality of today. Whether it’s Disney, Universal, Six Flags, or a hastily built World’s Fair, Defunctland Season 3 will look at the stories behind more incredible failures and beloved experiences in themed entertainment.

Since a lot of top comments seem to be suggesting that this season will be focusing on Michael Eisner, I wouldn't get your hopes up. Eisner is not the focus of this season, but I think that's a positive considering the hours and hours of documentary that we have already done on him.

2024, 4 years later, nothing new, what happened? Why did defunctland become defunct itself?

You should do a video on the terrible Willy Wonka experience thing they had in Glasgow a while back. I don't know if that's in your wheelhouse or not but I think you'd make it funny either way.

pls pls PLEASE make some vids about Marineland, Canada. that shit is fascinating (from the layout to the creepy rides to the shameless exploitation of animals to how they navigate constant protests) and I'm shocked almost no amusement park YT creators haven't jumped on that goldmine of crazy (and disturbing) history

Is there a link to this version of "There's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow"? It's so grand and tragic and different and I love it.

Please tell me you are doing Geauga Lake finally. I am from Youngstown…and once upon a time we had the biggest theme park in America next to us, and then, almost overnight, Cedar Fair killed it.

Defunctland, you would be perfect for the televisions worldwide, but there will be their extinction in 2030; Mickey Mouse will be a century old before that. Then you can make more videos about the new attractions and all the different TVs.

Sorry I didn't mention the Griffith Park tiny railroad too. (http://www.griffithparktrainrides.com )

Shrek 4D (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrek_4-D )? Another good episode? 🙂

Perhaps you can get your show on Quibi? ;D
@SteveBaker01
April 19, 2026 at 11:37 am
And "The Rise and Fall of Dreamworks Animation" might make for a good episode? 😉
@SteveBaker01
April 19, 2026 at 11:37 am
BTW. I worked for Jeffery Katzenberg for 12 years, but I don't know half the secrets you do. Keep it up! I will watch every episode. 🙂

April 19, 2026 at 11:37 am
Oh and perhaps you can give a current-day presentation on how Covid is going to effect the amusement park industry, moving forward. It can't be good! 🙁 And I feel like "defunct" may be the general future of things? 🙁

Your channel is f***ing brilliant!! And I would like to make a couple informed suggestions. (Aside from the original Elitch Gardens – which you have an obligation to cover.) But I haven't just lived in Colorado, I've lived in Southern California too. And in Burbank there are a couple tiny railroads that Disney himself had to have a hand in. He may have built them for all I know. They are only a couple miles away from Griffith Park where, as your show points out, was where he spent a lot of time as a divorce father. Disney loved tiny railroads! Today stands Travel Town (https://www.traveltown.org ) and the steam-punk park next door – L.A. Live Steamers (https://lalsrm.org ). I believe there is a Disney connection here that I can't research like you can.

How about ASTROWORLD, or Dogpatch? Either of those would be very interesting to be given this treatment. 🤔
