Good Luck Charlie – It’s a Boy!

Posted on June 24, 2012

Well… the people have spoken (LOL, like it wasn’t rigged [/opion not fact]) and the new baby is Toby Wan Kenobi Duncan.

Okay. I guess I don’t need to watch the episode now. xD But seriously, I heard it was good and that Bridgit sang a new song at the end. That girl needs a record deal, stat.

Anyway, what follows is Disney’s official press release:

THE DUNCANS WELCOME A BOUNCING BABY BOY, RESULTS REVEALED FROM OVER 25 MILLION VIEWERS’ VOTES TO DETERMINE HIS NAME…TOBY! IN TONIGHT’S SPECIAL DELIVERY EPISODE OF “GOOD LUCK CHARLIE”

In tonight’s milestone episode of “Good Luck Charlie” (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET/PT), the hit comedy for kids and families, the Duncan family welcomed a baby boy — and results were revealed from a viewer poll that determined the baby’s name – ‘Toby Duncan.’ The parents decide upon a middle name, one inspired by popular culture, in the episode’s tongue-in-cheek epilogue. The month-long “name the baby” poll at DisneyChannel.com tallied over 25 million votes around the world. In a particularly competitive race, the name ‘Toby’ received the majority of the viewer votes, edging out Noah, Jonah, Bobby Jr., Bo, Sydney, Erika, Mallory, Talia and Jenny. In the weeks leading up to tonight’s episode, Disney Channel presented several behind the scenes interstitials that built the anticipation for Baby Duncan’s arrival.

Adam Bonnett, senior vice president, original programming, Disney Channel, said, “The strength of ‘Good Luck Charlie’ lies with the talented team behind the scenes in writing and producing, and certainly the towering performances by our entire cast – together they perfectly capture the funny, tender and relatable family dynamic that viewers love watching and sharing in each week.”

The episode is available on WATCH Disney Channel, and the first game featuring Toby Duncan and his big sister, “Teddy’s Dream Dash,” will debut Monday, June 25 on DisneyChannel.com.

The series has increased in ratings for its third season – “Good Luck Charlie” accounted for three of the Top 4 scripted telecasts in Total Viewers across all basic cable (averaging 4.6 million) and TV’s Top 3 telecasts among Kids 2-11 (averaging 2.5 million), Kids 6-11 (averaging 2 million) and Tweens (averaging 1.8 million) for May 2012. For 2011, “Good Luck Charlie” was TV’s #2 series among Kids 6-11 and Tweens, and the Disney Channel Original Movie, “Good Luck Charlie: It’s Christmas” was cable TV’s #1 live-action movie of the year in Total Viewers (8.3 million) and the #2 scripted telecast across all TV in Kids 6-11 (4.0 million/16.1 rating).

“Good Luck Charlie” stars Bridgit Mendler, Jason Dolley, Leigh-Allyn Baker, Bradley Steven Perry, Mia Talerico and Eric Allan Kramer. Raven Goodwin, Shane Harper, Micah Williams and Patricia Belcher recur in season three.

The series was created by Phil Baker and Drew Vaupen and is executive-produced by Baker, Vaupen and Dan Staley. It is a production of It’s a Laugh Productions, Inc.

    has “Down-Sydon” a mentally brain illness.

  4. I liked the episode, but where does it go from here. What happens when the “new baby smell” wears off the show?

    I hope the single and album are released soon, because she needs something outside of GLC
