I’m stunned by the lack of a very high caliber guard caption head.  I also think they need to re-evaluate the choreography individual as his work in 2018 left a lot to be desired.  

I honestly don’t know what to think about this set of additions other than I’ll have to wait and see.  I feel like Rick Subel is on his last leg this season if it’s worst or on par with 2018.

As a crown homer, I am truly underwhelmed but hoping for the best.

Hoping for the best too, but with no real changes I'm not overly optimistic.  Time will tell.

I like this staff.  I think we’ll see a more unified approach to the entire written book.  

I agree! I know a lot more of these staff then the last staff.
