Well done Disney channel, you have to admit Disney channel is doing great this summer compared to nickelodeon
@Melvin, yes, you do
Amazing that Disney topped 2 charts. Im so happy that they’ve grown so much in the past couple of years. I just hope they can maintain that. Nick has greenlit 2 iCarly spinoffs with Sam and Cat from Victorious who will have their own show. Also, Gibby is getting his own show.
good for disney they deserved it. the real question is can they hold on into the fall because nickelodeon has ALOT of stuff planned. nick wont go down without a fight
