Save The Nine Lives of Chloe King

Save The Nine Lives of Chloe King

ABC Family clearly didn’t learn their lesson and they have AGAIN cancelled a new series after only ten episodes! The ABC Family series The Nine Lives of Chloe King was just getting started and had just begun to build up what was a very large and elaborate story line. We had some major plot elements revealed in the mid-season finale, which unfortunately has become the series finale. We call on all Disney fans to help us in our campaign to get this series renewed. No show deserves to end before it’s potential an even be measured. Our first SDS event is next week on October 9th (for nine lives) and we really need your support!

Learn more about how you can help us ave the show on our Nine Lives section of Save Disney Shows.

Huge news at Disney Channel this month! Carolina Lightcap, the now former president of Disney Channels Worldwide, has decided to step down from her post. Gary Marsh, Disney Channel’s Chief Creative Officer has now been promoted to president for Disney Channels Worldwide in addition to continuing to serve as Chief Creative Officer. Mr Marsh has long been one of the most receptive and well respected executives at Disney Channel, and his ascension to president of the channel is very good news for the fans in general.

In commenting on Mr. Marsh and his promotion, Anne Sweeney, co-chair, Disney Media Networks and president, Disney/ABC Television Group said, “Gary Marsh has been the driving creative force behind Disney Channels remarkable growth for the past 15 plus years, responsible for some of the most iconic and successful franchises in our history, including ‘Hannah Montana,’ ‘Wizards of Waverly Place,’ ‘High School Musical,’ ‘Phineas and Ferb,’ ‘That’s So Raven,’ ‘Shake It Up’ and many others.” She continued, “The evolution and growth of our Disney Channels business will come from the alignment of this great creative with strong distribution, in all its myriad forms.

We expected that Good Luck Charlie would be renewed for a third season, but you never know with Disney. If you need a reminder of that, just ask any Phil of the Future fan. Production is scheduled to resume in Los Angeles for a season premiere in early 2012. …

“Good Luck Charlie” has also inspired a Disney Channel Original Movie, “Good Luck Charlie, It’s Christmas!,” set to premiere in December, starring the cast along with guest stars Debra Monk (“Damages,” “Grey’s Anatomy”) and Michael Kagan (“Desperate Housewives”).

Debby Ryan’s Jessie Begins Filming

Debby Ryan's Jessie Begings Filming

Debby Ryan’s new show Jessie filmed it’s first episode back on Friday, June 17th 2011 at Hollywood Center Studios. In the new series, Debby plays recent HS graduate Jessie who was raised in rural Texas. She wants to be a singer/actress and comes to New York to chase that dream. She ends up as a live in nanny to four kids, three of whom are adopted from all over the world. The parents are like “Brangelina” with the mom an ex-model and the dad having a movie background. Jessie quickly finds herself hired and on the job.

It’s very much unlike any show Disney has ever ordered for DC. If it succeeds it could be a major game changer for the future of the network. If it fails, well, expect more shows built on the HM formula for a loooong time. The show is expected to premiere in the fall. We will of course continue to keep you updated.

New DCOMs Lemonade Mouth 2 and Shake it Up!

New DCOMS Lemonade Mouth 2 and Shake it Up!

Well… this didn’t take long. Lemonade Mouth was a pretty big hit, but a sequel already? They must want to strike while the iron is hot. “Lemonade Mouth 2″ will reunite fans with Olivia, Wen, Stella, Mohini and Charlie, and feature all-new music.

The hit buddy comedy series set in the world of a tween dance show, “Shake It Up, Chicago!,” has

generated development plans for a DCOM debut. The comedy series features two high-spirited characters,

best friends CeCe Jones and Raquel “Rocky” Blue… Between learning

a wide range of new dance styles, navigating the backstage antics at the show (especially with their

rivals Tinka and Gunther) and their newfound social status at school, the girls experience new and fun

adventures, some that test their friendship.

Kim Possible Fan Convention 2012

Kim Possible Fan Convention 2012

Periodically, we bring you messages from other groups that are working on projects that we think may be of interest to you, our readers. At SDS we are committed to preserving Kim’s legacy for all time, and for this reason we strongly endorse this new fan proposal. We urge you to join with then directly via facebook but of course we will continue to keep you updated on the project via this newsletter.

KIM POSSIBLE FAN CONVENTION 2012: WHAT’S THE SITCH?

On July 15, a gentleman started positing on various Kim Possible fan sites across the Internet. His one question – was anyone interested – seriously interested – in having a fan celebration to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Kim Possible.

The idea isn’t without precedent – the Disney animated show GARGOYLES had a 13-year run of fan gatherings in different spots around the country. But there are challenges: KP fans had never successfully organized a fan gathering during the run of the show, the show ended it’s original broadcast run in 2007, it is currently not being shown in reruns anywhere in the US, and the last previous online effort surrounding the show left fans feeling bitter about the owner of the show, The Walt Disney Company.

On July 21, a Facebook page appeared online: KIM POSSIBLE FAN CONVENTION 2012. The goal was simple. Find 100 serious KP fans willing to indicate they liked the idea of such an event. It they stepped forward, then work would commence on building the event from idea into reality.

My name is Donald Speirs. I’m the gentleman with that idea, and today I’m happy to announce that we have reached and shattered that goal. As of August 1st, we start the planning stages for a Kim Possible Fan Convention 2012.

The goal of the event is simple. We’re going to celebrate the creative team that came together and gave us the first great heroine of the 21st century. We’ll have fun sharing Kim stuff. And this will be a fan convention, so we will be taking in ideas on what things should be at such a gathering.

We’re in the very early planning stages – but you’re in for a treat. For one thing, it’s not just fans who want this event. Word of this project made it’s way to Hollywood, and some people came to Facebook and said they’re excited about this event as well: Kurt Weldon. Thomas Hart. Mark Drop. Brian Swenlin. Stephen Silver. Lisa Schaffer. Andy Ice. Adam Berry. Steve Loter. Bob Schooley (yes, that Bob Schooley). With their input on the event as well, I expect this will be a fan event unlike any other.

So pencil in these dates on your calendar: June 8-10, 2012. Visit and like the Facebook Page for the Kim Possible Fan Convention 2012. Once there, you’ll get updates from me and the rest of Team Possible 2012 about what’s happening.

Come, join us as we celebrate the first great heroine of the 21st century!.

 

Selena Gomez Concert at the OC Fair

Selena Gomez Concert at the OC Fair

Our very own Webmaster Greg recently went to see the talented Selena Gomez as she kicked off her new nationwide tour at the Orange County Fair on Sunday July 24th.

Selena did a total of 18 songs, including songs from all three of her studio albums with an obvious emphasis on the newest album.

Disney 2Q Net Profit Slides 1.2%

Disney 2Q Net Profit Slides 1.2%

Walt Disney Co.’s (DIS) fiscal second-quarter profit slid 1.2% as strong advertising revenue and an improving parks-and-resorts business were offset by poor results in the studio entertainment division.

Like many of its peers, Disney’s networks have benefited from a rebound in the television advertising market, while its theme-parks division has reported higher attendance and per-person spending. However, overall results were dragged down by the timing of the Easter holiday, which fell in the current quarter, along with the effects from the Japanese earthquake, the timing of certain DVD releases and a disappointing showing for the film “Mars Needs Moms.”

Revenue from the company’s media networks–its biggest top-line contributor–jumped 12%, while profit increased 17%. ESPN revenue was boosted by the football Bowl Championship Series and high ratings for regular-season NBA games. Chief Executive Robert Iger said on a conference call that early signs suggest “strong” advertising sales.

Wizards wraps it’s final Season!

Wizards wraps it's final Season

Disney Channel’s hit series Wizards of Waverly Place has filmed it’s final episode. Disney will likely stretch out the last of the new episodes through the end of the year and possibly even into early 2012. It looks like the promises second movie won’t be happening though… which leaves the serious possibility that the series will end without an answer to the question of who will win the wizards competition.

Hellcats Cancelled!

Hellcats Cancelled!

We had touched on this subject last month, but it’s official now that the CW has cancelled Aly and Ashley’s series Hellcats. They never really got behind the series saddling it with a terrible time slot so it’s not really a surprise.

So Random premieres June 5th

So Random premieres June 5th

Sonny with a Chance may be over, but Demi’s cast mates are carrying on with a new spin off series focusing on the show-within-a-show So Random. The new series focuses entirely on the comedy with pretty much no connection to Sonny‘s plot what so ever. Still, it’s got a good cast and it’s pretty well written. Give it a chance, the series premieres June 5th at 8:30 after the Shake it Up / Good Luck Charlie crossover special.

New DCOM: My Babysitter’s a Vampire

New DCOM: My Babysitter’s a Vampire

This looks so stupid. But you never know; we thought Lemonade Mouth would be stupid and it actually ended up being quite good. It also looks like it’s part of a series?…

“My Babysitter’s a Vampire,” a comedic spin on pop culture vampires and scary movies in general, tells the story of three teens who believe their new babysitter is a real bloodsucking creature of the night — and it’s now up to them to rid their sleepy little town of the menace. The movie premieres FRIDAY, JUNE 10 (7:00 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney Channel. Produced by Fresh TV and distributed by FremantleMedia Enterprises (FME), it will usher in a summer series premiering Monday, June 27 (7:00 p.m., ET/PT).

Victorious Concert in LA

Victorious Concert in LA

This really isn’t Disney related, but our own Webmaster Greg has been keeping his eye on the competition, and the success Nick’s Victoria Justice and Miranda Cosgrove with Victorious and iCarly have definitely played a part in Disney’s plans for their new shows in development including Madison High and Austin & Ally.

So of course when Victoria Justice and the cast of Victorious performed their first concert in LA for Walmart Soundcheck, he just had to check it out. And it was very impressive, which of course, was expected from the start!

My Kim Possible DVD Sets

Posted on: Monday, May 23rd, 2011 in: Christy Carlson Romano, Kim Possible, Save Disney Shows, Webmaster Greg

Late last year I mentioned that Disney had released Kim Possible seasons one and two on DVD through their Disney Movie Club.

Kim Possible DVD Sets

Well, I did get my sets a few months ago and they are awesome!

Kim Possible DVD Sets

There aren’t any bonus features or anything but it’s got all the episodes and that counts for a lot.

Kim Possible DVD Sets

Of course, the US version isn’t nearly as fancy as the German version.

Kim Possible DVD Sets

The individual disks have their own designs and everything…

Kim Possible DVD Sets

…while the US version is just, well, there.

So in short, I’m glad I got both the US and German sets and I hope they decide to release seasons 3 and 4 as well.

So in honor of her 18th birthday, I finally got around to framing my new Debby Ryan autograph. Pretty awesome right? I love that pic of her.

Greg's Awesome Autographs

I ended up spending a couple hours rearranging and fixing up my autographs wall. So I thought I might as well show it off. These first few are unchanged…

Greg's Awesome Autographs

There are a few new ones in this next batch including Erin sanders (Zoey 101, Big Time Rush), Carly Schroeder (Port Charles, Lizzie McGuire) and Daniella Monet (Victorious).

Greg's Awesome Autographs

I did keep one I’m in the Band pic for myself. And despite Disney flat out refusing to give me one at the filming, (seriously, they treat everyone over 16 like crap) I did eventually manage to get my hands on a Sonny with a Chance poster. :D

Greg's Awesome Autographs

I finally got around to framing my Ariana Grande autograph. It’s only been 7 months. LOL.

Greg's Awesome Autographs

I got my Bella Thorne and Zendaya autographs on the far right of this next pic plus my Taylor Swift calenders (This year’s and last!)

Greg's Awesome Autographs

Last but not least, one of the rarest pieces of KP memorabilia that I know to exist.

Greg's Awesome Autographs

I hope you enjoyed looking half as much as I enjoyed showing off. And no, you can’t have anything, so don’t ask. :P

Kim Possible DVD Box Set Menu

I haven’t signed up and purchased the sets myself (yet) but RS.net member bgwillia did and was nice enough to share these photos of the sets with us.

Interesting item about Season two, it includes “Sitch in Time” as three episodes. The videos are standard television dimensions once A episode is selected from the menu, which is wide screen. There is A security feature on the DVD’s so one can’t play them from the computer as “The Villain Files”, “The Secret Files” and the two movies could.

I would like to strongly urge all KP fans to purchase these sets as soon as possible. I don’t like how they’re forcing us to sign up for Disney Movie Club in order to order the sets but after all we’ve done to get these sets I’m gonna do it and I hope you do too.

Disney Channel October Highlights

Selena Gomez - Eeek!

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.

Suite Life on Deck - 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.

Suite Life Movie Announcement

Suite Life on Deck

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?

It’s Halloween Time!

Mickey Halloween 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

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.

Selena Gomez’s New CD & Concert Videos

Speaking of new Disney CDs, the greatest Disney girl still on the network, Selena Gomez, just released her sophomore album A Year Without Rain.

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.

Greg met Ariana Grande!

Webmaster Greg, Ariana Grande, and Dan Schneider

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.
