Looks like the Disney Channel underestimated the power of Nickelodeon's
iCarly. Their attempts to squash the possible threat to their
Hannah Montana empire were squashed, however, when a special
iCarly smashed the second episode of
JONAS, the new star vehicle for the Jonas Brothers. So to make themselves feel better, and despite what Miley Cyrus may have been saying, the show will go on.
Disney has picked up Hannah Montana for a fourth season, as well as Demi Lovato's
Sonny With a Chance for a second.
As for
JONAS, it's already been yanked from Saturdays where, despite an impressive debut, it got slammed in its second outing by
iCarly. So now, it's joining the Disney Sunday lineup, where it can nestle snugly behind
Hannah Montana and
Sonny With a Chance. This does create a powerhouse Sunday night for the network, while protecting the two newer shows with the power of Miley Cyrus.
