There will inevitably be people in [[GoofySuit (really bad) cartoon character costumes that obscure the face]]. They will be free to wander aimlessly around the park without getting mobbed by little kids and disturbingly determined parents. [[note]]Nowadays, real characters have to appear at specific "greeting areas" with attendants and well-defined paths for approaching and leaving, because not all guests are all that well-behaved, and even those who are can be very dangerous to a cast member in one of these costumes. "Wandering" characters have not been seen with any reliable frequency since the beginning of the last decade.[[/note]] There will usually be no sign of "face characters", who are actors/actresses portraying characters who look enough like normal humans that they don't need masks or anything along those lines (think of Aladdin, for instance, or the various {{Disney Princess}}es). The park may have a mascot character whose face can be [[SigilSpam seen absolutely everywhere]].

If there is a parade, it will probably be a) in the daytime and b) clearly based on the Main Street Electrical Parade (which is ''at night'', thus the lights that make it "Electrical"; there has been alternate versions of the parade at the parks around the world, like Fantillusion in Paris, Dreamlights at Tokyo or Spectromagic at WDW, as well ).

Typically avoided in live action, since it's easier to get permission to use an existing theme park than to build your own for the sake of what's usually just one episode. For a time in the mid-1990s, after ABC was bought by Disney, virtually every sitcom on the network did [[VacationEpisode at least one episode]] at one of the DisneyThemeParks in the form of an EnforcedPlug (some were two-parters).

Frequently, rides will empty into a gift shop. This ''is'' TruthInTelevision for both Disney and Universal, where any ride of any significance has its own gift shop which is usually conveniently located right where you exit the ride (although some rides built before the concept took hold, such as The Haunted Mansion, have to make do with keeping a merchandise cart nearby).  If there is a parade, it will probably be a) in the daytime and b) clearly based on the Main Street Electrical Parade (which is ''at night'', thus the lights that make it "Electrical"; alternate versions of the parade include Fantillusion at Disneyland Paris, Dreamlights at Tokyo Disneyland, and Spectromagic at Walt Disney World).
