Have look at this! I don’t know how long this will last before Disney has it removed, but have a look at Tiffany Thornton’s Disney audition tape!
If you’re wondering, Sterling’s character was originally written as a kinda weak nerdy guy that was involved with the super diva Tawni. But they changed their minds at some point and made Chad a male version of Tawni.
We begin the November summary with an episode of The Suite Life that sounds pretty interesting. I hope they play the London look alike the way I think they will.

Looks live a pretty good mix of shows overall. Two new Fish Hooks, Wizards, Sonny, Charlie and On Deck episodes, with four for Shake it Up.
Ooh! La, La! Couture held a special fashion show during Scott Baio’s 50th birthday bash in Los Angeles in September 2010. Three of Disney’s up and coming new stars, Ryan Newman, Bella Thorne, and Allisyn Ashley Arm, where on hand for the event.
The show featured all three young hollywood actresses in poufy pink and black dresses.
I’m sure I can’t be the only one who thinks that Ryan Newman and Bella Thorne would make a heck of a team for a DCOM or maybe even a future series.
Bella really is, in particular, an exceptional actress. Shake it Up is gonna rock.
Ryan Newman’s character is, clearly, the only good part of Zeke and Luther.
And no episode of Sonny with a Chance would be complete without Allisyn’s character Zora. Except for, ya know, the episodes she’s not actually in… LOL
Yesterday, 10/10/10, Tiffany Thornton preformed two songs at the 2nd annual Allykatzz Tween Summit in New York for Disney’s Friends for Change.
Wow.
Anyone that knows me know that I just adore Tiff.
Obviously, she’s stunningly beautiful. But there’s more to her than that; she’s a fabulous singer, an amazing actress, and a genuinely good person. The last trait being the most important.
Anyway, Tiff sang both her songs from the new SWAC Soundtrack, “Sure Feels Like Love” …
It’s important to remember that paper letters are the key to our efforts, and events are spaced out so you have at least a week to prepare as many as you can. Please refer to our how to help section for addresses: http://help.savedisneyshows.org
Then on the day of the event, you can also send faxes, make phone calls, and use our email program athttp://sdsmail.org
Disney Channel October Highlights
Disney Channel is rolling out a lot of new episodes as part of their “October Takeover” Halloween promotion. Highlights include the season finale of Wizards of Waverly Place and JONAS LA.
There’s also a new Halloween special for Sonny with a Chance and The Suite Life on Deck (which Webmaster Greg says is a really good episode, and he would know because he went to the filming for that episode).
The Suite Life on Deck is also having a special cross over episode with Disney XD’s I’m In The Band.
A full list of new episodes coming in October along with episode air dates and summaries is available on the DC Fans Blog.
SDS Fundraising Drive
I would like to thank you all for your support during our last fundraising drive. With your help we where able to renew most of our summer domains, including SaveDisneyShows.com, SaveKimPossible.org, SaveWitch.com, LiloAndStitch.org among others.
However, we are once again in need of your support. Our hosting package for SDS and all it’s affiliated websites expires this month. Can you contribute $5, $10, $20? Any and all donations would be greatly appreciated. All proceeds received will be applied to our upcoming hosting renewal and to keep our campaigns running.
Well, it’s official. Disney is making a Suite Life DCOM. There have been rumors of one circulating for a while, but what they’ve actually come up for the plot seems rather strange.
As the story goes, teenage twins Cody and Zack Martin receive an opportunity to participate in the prestigious Gemini Project at a high-tech research center that studies the dynamics between twins. Soon they find themselves connected in a way they’ve never been before: When one twin experiences a sensation, thought or feeling, the other twin feels it too. While this newfound power helps the boys see eye to eye for the first time, it ultimately puts them in more danger than they could have imagined.
Is this how Disney really intends to end the series?
Halloween is by far the best recruiting day of the year. All year long we spend a lot of time encouraging everyone to get out there and find more people who don’t yet know about our movement(s). This might be by posting flyers around town, wearing SDS merchandise, and/or by posting about us online.
But on Halloween, kids (and their parents) come right to your door. So put a couple flyers on it. Or pass out handouts with the candy. It’s a great opportunity for near free promotion that should not be wasted. Start printing your flyers and handouts now!
For your convenience, we’ve organized our available flyers and handouts on our Halloween Bash Website. Spread the Word!
Hannah Montana Soundtrack
We all know that Hannah Montana season four will be the last for this series. And as a result, the last Hannah Montana soundtrack will be released this month.
The album covers much musical ground, from intimate ballads to straight-up high-voltage pop. “Gonna Get This” is a synth-laden pop duet between Miley and the Caribbean-based singer Iyaz, while the harmony-rich “Need a Little Love” pairs Miley with legendary singer-songwriter Sheryl Crow. Miley and her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, sing together the ballad “Love That Lets Go,” a fitting tribute to their close relationship, both on screen and off. The sentiment continues on “Been Here All Along” and the wistful farewell, “I’ll Always Remember You.” But the album kicks into high gear with upbeat rockers like “Kiss It Goodbye,” “I’m Still Good,” and the club anthem “Are You Ready.” The soulful “Ordinary Girl,” “Que Sera” and the explosive pop of “Barefoot Cinderella” round out the album’s 11 tracks.
Speaking of new Disney CDs, the greatest Disney girl still on the network, Selena Gomez, just released her sophomore album A Year Without Rain.
Selena’s new album doesn’t disappoint. From the title track “A Year Without Rain” to her single “Round & Round” this album really delivers. But if you want more, check out Webmaster Greg’s concert videos from Selena’s sold out show at the LA County Fair.
And this has absolutely nothing to do with Disney, but over very own Webmaster Greg was lucky enough to hang out with some Nickelodeon stars including Ariana Grande of Victorious and the great Dan Schneider, creator of All That, The Amanda Show, Kenan and Kel, Zoey 101, iCarly, and more. It was all part of a fundraiser for St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital.
