New SDS screencaps section!
Webmaster Greg has been hard at work caping making, sorting, processing, and uploading tens of thousands of screencaps over the last couple months for his new Disney Channel Fans site. One of the great by products of this effort is it allows us to set up a SDS branded/themed screencap gallery as well! Just click here to see it, or you can get to it by clicking the "Screencaps" button on the SDS main page.
The Save Jake Long
Movement
Over the past few weeks there has been a lot of turbulence in the ADJL community, especially as it relates to the efforts of Kim Possible fans. At SDS, we believe it's time to get back to the basics and let the other issues work themselves out. With that in mind, we have a Save Jake event scheduled for this weekend, and we really, really, need everyone to participate. There’s not a lot of time left, so we need every one who can to send their paper letters as soon as possible. If you don't know what to say, you can print one of our flyers sign your name to it and mail it to Disney. The fact that you send something, anything, is much better than having sent nothing at all. For more on Save Jake Day, including
letter writing ideas, web-faxing information, and phone numbers, please refer to SaveJakeLong.com/day.php.
More Upcoming Events
Save Phil of the Future Day
We still want Phil in our Future, and we can still get a proper ending to this series. We're only a few days away from the next Save Phil Day on January 21st, so be ready!
Kim Possible Legacy Day is February 10th, First anniversary of Season 4! We have to fight for boxsets so that we can preserve Kim's legacy. If you also want to push for a fifth season, this is the time as well.
There are rumors that Disney realizes that this franchise's overseas popularity is worth the effort to continue production. If we can show decent USA and international support on February 14th, it could be enough to put us "over the top."
If you're a fan of the new DC series, The Wizards of Waverly Place read on! [If you're not, read anyway :) ] First of all, we've set up a nifty little site for Wizards with some basic information on the show, so that should
this show ever meet a fate similar to Phil we'll be ready! The informational site is WizardsOfWaverlyPlace.info. Please, even if you aren't a fan, do what you can to spread the link online so that if/when the time comes Wizards fans can find us!
But it get better, not only do we have that informational site, but Webmaster Greg created a whole brand new forum just for Wizards fans! You can find the forums at wowpfans.com. This is a NEW forum that is independent of any external rules, relationships, etc. This forum will be shaped solely by the people who join it - much like the W.I.T.C.H. Forum.
Finally yet importantly, we wanted to remind you that we have caps of every aired episode of Wizards up right now on DC Fans. Just click here.
NEW YORK (AP) — It was ever so brief, but the use of a body double by Miley Cyrus on her best-selling “Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus ‘Best of Both Worlds’ ” tour is creating plenty of buzz.
A video posted on YouTube shows the 15-year-old entertainer as “Hannah” dancing onstage with a
group of dancers and the Jonas Brothers, also on the tour. During the song, someone ushers her offstage via a trap door. Immediately, another girl dressed like the character “Hannah” in the same pink trench coat with blonde hair covering her faces dances around, runs up the stage set, and then quickly leaves.
While the double is holding a microphone for her less than a minute, the girl motions like she is singing. However, a rep for Miley said the switch was only for costume purposes.
“To help speed the transition from Hannah to Miley, there is a
production element during the performance of ‘We Got the Party’ incorporating a body double for Miley,” according to statement Friday from the public relations firm PMK.
“After Hannah has completed the featured verse on the duet with the Jonas Brothers, a body double appears approximately one to two minutes prior to the end of the song in order to allow Miley to remove the Hannah wig and costume and transform into Miley for her solo set. Other than during this very brief transitional moment in the show, Miley performs live during the entirety of both the Hannah and Miley segments of the concert.”
Miley’s “Hannah Montana” tour is one of the nation’s hottest tours, selling out within minutes when tickets went on sale last fall. Some people have been reselling tickets for thousands of dollars. Miley has released two albums under the “Hannah Montana” brand, both of which have sold more than two million copies.
The “Hannah Montana” is an offshoot of the Walt Disney Co. TV show.

SDS Mobile
I don't know how I could live without my Pocket PC, which is what inspired me to create a handheld friendly version of SDS. It's still being tweaked, and more content is being added (like a mobile version of SDS Mail!) but I wanted to release the link so our members can start using it. You can find our mobile site at http://savedisneyshows.org/mobile/
Tiger Beat Magazine usually gets this stuff right, so while this isn't the best source, it's enough to convince us at SDS:
I chatted with Ashley Tisdale over the phone on Friday. She was rushing around, really busy because of High School Musical 2, but we had a few minutes to catch up. You'll see more of the interview in future issues of BOP and Tiger Beat, but I had to pass along this part of our convo.
Ashley told me that she just finished shooting the very last episode of The Suite Life of Zack & Cody. Yep, that's right, the show won't be filming any more new episodes. You'll still be seeing new episodes for a while, because they have filmed so many, but the cast is finished shooting. How did Ashley feel about the last episode?
"I cried," Ashley told me. "Brenda and I cried when we did our last day together - our last ever scene was together in London's suite with Phill Lewis (who plays Mr. Moseby). First, we cried when the lobby set went down a week before. It was the one stage that was always there. It was hard to see it go. Then a week later, when we did our last scene together, it was sad and we cried. The next day was the curtain call - the end of the whole thing - and we cried there, too. So I cried, like, three times!"

Now, TSL has gotten a good run, but If KP fans can campaign for a 5th season, TSL fans have every right to campaign for their show.
Our first Save The Suite Life Day is currently being organized. Tell us what you think on the Yahoo Group or
Forum.

SDS Website Updates
For those who don't visit the main SDS page frequently, I wanted to let you know that you should go take a look.
SDS has been given a full makeover which should make it significantly more user friendly. Pages like the how to help page and the events page now have standardized link menus that constantly and clearly connect the site together. Also, the home page got a radical overhaul that I hope will make it much easier to jump right to the thing or things our visitors are
looking for.
But if you do happen across a dead link, or any page that got missed, please report it to Webmaster Greg.

Cheetah Girls News
'Hollywood Exclusive' Column Marilyn Beck Stacy Jenel Smith
The Cheetah Girls new album, "TCG," represents a new name for the group and hopefully a new phase, says singer Kiely Williams.
"This is the first in-studio album, separate from the sound track," says Williams, who comprises The Cheetah Girls with Sabrina Bryan and Adrienne Bailon. "It's like the first look at the Cheetah Girls apart from our roles in the show...Just Sabrina, Adrienne and Kiely kind of saying what we feel...We actually co-produced and wrote a good portion of the album."
The new album does not feature Raven Symone, who starred in the first two "Cheetah Girls" films-----nor, it seems, will "Cheetah Girls 3," which they're set to start shooting in India in January,
says Williams.

Another Show in
Danger?
Recently, rumors have been flying about the supposed cancellation of The Suite Life of Zack and Cody and the possible destruction of the sets. I want to emphasize that at this point, there are no credible sources and that everything written about it (that the SDS staff has seen) is third or second hand speculation at best. When we know more, we'll bring it to you here or you can also discuss the possible situation on the forum.
