Debby Ryan is Kim Possible

October 31, 2012October 29, 2012 by Webmaster Greg

Oh. Em. Gee. https://twitter.com/TheDebbyRyan/status/261173181333766144 Debby went as Kim Possible, THE Kim Possible, to Just Jared's Halloween bash.

Obviously, she looks amazing. But even more than that, it is so totally awesome that she's a Kim Possible fan! https://twitter.com/TheDebbyRyan/status/262358622921707520 As I'm sure some of you know, I was one of the founding members of the original SaveKimPossible.com and the site that grew out of it, SaveDisneyShows.org.

Disney has all but abandoned Kim, long ago pulling reruns from the air and this past summer replacing the KP World Showcase Adventure at EPCOT with an updated Perry the Platypus themed overlay. So it makes me very happy to see Debs reminding us all of the show. :)

Here's one more pic of her at the party hanging out with the lovely Sarah Hyland. And if I find more from the party (oh how I hope there is more) I will be sure to let you all know. :)

As always, you can click any pic above to see the fullsize. There's no gallery view for these pics. EDIT: Another pic from Just Jared:

Olivia Holt – Regard Magazine & Girl Vs. Monster

October 24, 2012 by Webmaster Greg

So, did you all watch Olivia Holt's Girl Vs. Monster

The premiere only got a 4.9 in the ratings, so I don't think you all did.

I know I was watching, and I thought it was one of the best DCOMs they have done to date.

The girl can act, and she's got a pretty good voice too.

Still... I can't help but wonder why more people didn't tune in.

I mean, do people not like pretty blondes anymore?

ANT Farm Renewed for Season 3

October 24, 2012October 3, 2012 by Webmaster Greg

... but it sounds like they're changing things up quite dramatically in the 3rd season. I have absolutely no proof of this, but it kinda sounds to me like someone decided they weren't gonna do a third season and as a result they destroyed the season two sets. Then someone else looked at the overall ratings and decided they needed it after all and this is twist what they came up with. I also suspect we won't be seeing much if any of Paisley, Chyna's parents, Wacky, and Principal Skidmore in this new season. Although, Allie tweeted that she "can't wait to get back" so hopefully we will be seeing more of Paisley. *fingers crossed* https://twitter.com/AllieDeBerry/status/253308951360335872 Disney's official press release follows.
