James Earl Jones, hands down, is the best narrator for anything and everything! But they do have some good talent up there.

Wish they'd get someone in the 12/7 - 12/10 slots so I can see who will be there when I am. I have gotten the dinner package for one of the other nights we will be there but still would like to see who else is coming.

Highly recommend going to see Neil Patrick Harris. My family has seen him twice at Candlelight and he's just incredible, very warm and personable with the crowd as well as an exceptional narrator. I'd also definitely recommend the meal package at Via Napoli in Italy, but make sure you come hungry! Probably one of the best values in WDW, my family did the lunch for $39 per person with priority seating for the 5pm Candlelight and the three-course lunch kept us full through the evening.
