the dialogue often seems just a little stilted to me

Ah, right. Reading back now I see you were talking about the writing, not his reading of it. That probably comes from Davies' British vocabulary, and the fact(?) that there is no American involved who could've given it a language checkup.

Not even the Disney liaison bothered to comment on it apparently, and if you believe some of the online fan discourse out there, they dictate everything that goes on screen 😄

I mean, is it any COINCIDENCE that this episode was set in FLORIDA?

It's a Disney, Disney, Disney, Disney World.
