A Post for Quirkyloon

The other title I was toying with was:

"Julia spends way too much time watching The Disney Channel and reading TMZ!"

Quirkyloon wrote a blog post about watching tween kids shows (i.e. iCarly, etc...). So to make her feeling better I "outed" myself as watching a lot of Disney Channel.

Her response to my comment "@Julia You're a Disney Channel junkie so maybe you can tell us..what's up with the alleged feud between Hannah and Selena? Please tell! (I'll be checking your blog for an answer!) :)"

The really sad part - I know the answer!

It has to do with the show Hannah Montana The Jonas Brothers (OK, I REALLY don't get the appeal). First, there were rumors that they were going to replace Hannah Montana with Selena Gomez and then The Jonas Brothers fueled suspicion by wearing a "Team Selena" t-shirt. Also, each of the girls have dated a Jonas Brother.

So now that I have outed myself as a "tween wannabee" (to which I reply WHATEVER with my hands raised in the "W" sign) go and check out Musings of a Quirkyloon and see what she has to say on the topic of tween shows.

Thanks to having children who watch the Disney Channel, I see several Disney and Nickolodeon (Drake and Josh, iCarly and more) on a regular basis.

And I am clueless, what is the "w" sign with your hands? Can you take a picture?

Luckily for me.. my kids never really got into the disney channel.. But the friends want to come over and watch, my daughter is disgusted with the idea!

Oh Lordy. I am SO out of the Disney Channel loop. But I do have a child friendly TV.

I have been "cable free" for 5 years.

One night my just off the boat puritanical Irish Catholic mother came to visit me. It was late. Suddenly my boyfriend was transfixed by the TV. I guess it was Showtime.

A naked woman was dancing while pouring a gigantic silver bowl of vanilla pudding down her back. (I'll never understand that.)

My mother almost passed out, accused me of subscribing to the playboy channel.

I got angry cuz I never "consented" to allow that stuff in my house. I mean, what if kids were up late? So I decided to be cable free.

I spend millions renting all the cable shows on DVD. When I go to friends homes they can't even talk to be because I am glued, literally glued to the cooking channel. It's so sad...

Wow thanks Julia for both the bloggy love and the answer!

That was so nice of you! :) And now I know! Hey I've gotta be able to give my two cents worth with my boy! Now I have something worth saying.

And don't worry I actually looked up a Miranda Cosgrove video yesterday. Uh-huh, I really did.

sigh

I will have someone take a picture of me with my hands tomorrow and will post it.

Now it's my turn - what/who is Miranda Cosgrove??

Surely you jest Julia! hee hee

Miranda Cosgrove is the name of the actress who plays Carly in iCarly. (And she sings too!)

Well now that I think about it, it is a Nickelodeon show not Disney show, so I guess I can't blame you for not knowing!

LOL

You're not the only Disney Channel junkie. I had no clue about the drama you explained, for I get stuck watching Playhouse Disney. Oh yes, "Hotdog hotdog, hot diggity dog!".
