On the eve of the departure, Alex uses her magical powers to transport the family business (a sandwich shop refashioned from a subway car) to a party she's not allowed to attend. Headstrong teen daughter Alex (Selena Gomez) isn't going to be a part of it, instead planning to stay with her best friend Harper (a briefly-seen Jennifer Stone).

In their place are a single high-quality film camera and the aspiration to do more than broadly entertain a narrow young target demographic.Īs the movie opens, the Russo family of lower Manhattan is planning a vacation to the Caribbean. (Unsurprisingly, "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch" and Disney Channel scribe Dan Berendsen wrote both.) Gone are the over-the-top laugh track and unsightly low-budget digital video cameras. Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie gives its source sitcom the same kind of makeover that Hannah Montana: The Movie gave its hit inspiration. Only the rabidly-anticipated High School Musical 2 scored a bigger debut among DCOMs (its 17.2 million viewer record was never in jeopardy). The official viewer count for the debut was 11.4 million, nearly double the audience for every other network and cable broadcast that Friday night. The fantastical sitcom may not have been granted the big-budget, high-profile treatment of Hannah Montana and Lizzie McGuire's paid-admission outings, but it got the next best thing: a high-profile Disney Channel Original Movie scheduled in the proven summer season. Gomez and "Wizards" got a big boost over the summer, though, with the premiere of Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie.
"Wizards" claims an ever so slightly larger viewership than "Sonny", but both regularly have their new episodes rank among the week's top ten cable broadcasts.

If the comparison boils down to the one number that's most critical for the one thing that's demanded the most time from the two - the Nielsen ratings of their respective Disney Channel comedy series - then each fares similarly. Gomez has more acting credits and far more outside the Disney family.
Lovato has twice as many Hollywood Records albums, and her two debuted more strongly than Gomez's recent first. Gomez has twice as many Google results as Lovato. Gomez's show, "Wizards", got a 16-month head start on Lovato's "Sonny." Otherwise, the two may seem evenly matched in many ways. If that were to end and a rivalry of Duff/Lohan proportions were to emerge, Gomez would have a stronger claim to inheriting Miley's tiara as Disney's next teen queen. Youth icons and budding celebs Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato have regularly reminded us that they are best friends.

At their heart, each boasts a 17-year-old girl already promoted to company-wide mascot and kept busy by a full slate of music videos, hit movie song covers, publicity/PR events, and star vehicles. The expiration date for the Cyrus cash cow won't take Disney Channel by surprise the forward-thinking cable fixture has already been prepping two female-centered sitcoms as potential successors: "Wizards of Waverly Place" and "Sonny with a Chance". This year certainly represented an apex for "Hannah", as its secretly ordinary pop superstar became a big screen attraction (like Lizzie six years earlier) and had a final season announced. "Lizzie" and star Hilary Duff passed the baton to Raven-Symoné and "That's So Raven", a sitcom whose popularity is still felt in the network's present programming styles.īoth Raven and her eponymous heroine have faded and you need no reminder that Disney's current it-girl is none other than Miley Cyrus, whose "Hannah Montana" has seemingly reached new heights in fame deriving from kids' TV. Since "Lizzie McGuire" was embraced near the beginning of this millennium, Disney Channel has had female-friendly tween enterprises take turns as its cornerstone franchise.
