Disney Orders New Show Good Luck Charlie
Today Disney announced in a press release that they have ordered episodes of a new show called Good Luck Charlie for the Disney Channel. This new show is being categorized as a live action comedy series. The show is expected to being production in August 2009. The first episode(s) of the show are planned to premiere sometime in 2010.
Good Luck Charlie will star Bridgit Mendler (plays Justin’s vampire girlfriend in the upcoming Wizards vs. Vampires episodes of Wizards of Waverly Place) as Teddy Holliday, Jason Dolley (acted in Hatching Pete and Corey in the House) as Casey Holliday, Bradley Steven Perry as Gabe Holliday, Eric Allan Kramer as Bob Holliday, and Leigh Allyn Baker as Amy Holliday. The show is about the Holliday family’s daily life, as it sort of revolves around the fourth child, Charlotte (i.e. Charlie), who is a baby. In the show the parents Bob and Amy return to work full time and the teenagers Teddy and Casey along with their 10-year-old brother Gabe help take care of Charlotte. The show sounds like it will not just be about taking care of Charlotte, but also the teenagers trying to still have a typical teenage life.
The reason for the show being called Good Luck Charlie seems to relate to how their will be a video diary in each episode made by Teddy for Charlotte. The video diary will be about Teddy’s daily adventures and mishaps in order to later serve as advice for Charlotte later when Teddy has moved out.
Good Luck Charlie sounds like an interesting show premise. I certainly plan on watching it whenever it finally airs on the Disney Channel in 2010. I doubt it can be worse than the recent J.O.N.A.S. and Sonny With a Chance.
