Looks like Disney's new show 'JONAS' is struggling a bit; disneychannel.wikia.com/wiki/JONAS#ReceptionSeems like that although it's barely holding its own, it seems to have done fairly poor compared to what Disney expected/demanded... And, as ya know, in the tyrannical business empire that is Disney, these sort of sitches do not bode well for a series... What are your opinions on the show? Is it barely holding its own, on deaths door or is it just a slow starter? |

Figures, there's only so much sappy music that one can take.
Better hope that you have your frack-you money saved, boys.

It's Disney. It's Crap.. It's also Live Action: Course they're gonna run with it...  |

It makes me wonder.
Live action TV shows are all the rage at the moment with Hanah Montana, iCarly the Suite Life, but... what happens when the shows finish/loose popularity? Hanah Montana might be popular now, but they're only doing one more season of it and once that finishes, will ol' Miley's popularity start to decline? Same sort of situation with iCarly.
Somehow, I get the feeling they won't last as long as shows like 'The Simpsons' or 'Spongebob Squarepants' (and even those are getting stale now, Jumping the Shark anyone?), so how long will it be until the fad dies?

I'll be honest, there are VERY few Live action (excluding sketch based and sitirical shows) Comedy shows that can actually (and legitimately) amuse me to the point where I can count them on one hand. Everything else seems to get either a slight smirk, a "hmph" or a "WTF is this crap?" responce.
I also believe that Spongebob was going to end at The Movie... only Executive Meddling brought it back...

Tbh, S'B has gotten really stale...the Simpsons have as well... Shows like Kim Possible and Futurama still have alot of life in them before they should be considered 'done,' yet... At least Futurama is coming back though.  The Simpsons came out when I was born. I'm 21 now. Case and point. |

I've never seen JONAS, and there's a reason for that, lmao.  It just looks... ugh. And BTW, iCarly is actually good. Honestly? It's effing awesome! Kind of embarassing to admit, but iCarly is a pretty rockin' show. They are SO pushing it with the inappropriateness though, haha! In the last aired episode iThink They Kissed, Sam said "Holy Crap"! WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!!! I was freaking out! They actually allowed it! They're trying to get an older audience, but they've had an older audience since the beginning, lmao. Seriously, this show kicks as s. |

And that's probably why it kicked the crap out of Jonas in the ratings department. |
