Upcoming Save Disney Shows Events Kim Possible Legacy Day is September 8th! Save W.I.T.C.H. Day is September 13th!  This month, KP and WITCH fans will have another opportunity to show their dedication and fight for their shows. For both shows, the battle is to keep them alive. The end of Toon Disney greatly threatens both shows - for KP it means the loss of one channel and relegation to the early morning hours on DC. For WITCH it means removal from the US airwaves Entirely! And even worse for WITCH fans, the comic series is now ending as well (more here). It's time for the fans to make their voices known. Please begin to prepare your paper letters now - they are the most important part of these events. Disney contact information can be found in the How to Help section of SDS. Disney Channel Ratings down We all knew it couldn't last forever; for the first time in ages Disney Channel suffered a ratings decrease. Hannah Montana’s ratings are down ever sense Miley’s Vanity Fair photos. The original Suite Life series is ending. KP and ADJL are over. And the only new show getting any decent promotion is Phineas and Ferb. And I doubt few would disagree with the statement that Camp Rock was no High School Musical. My hope is that now Disney realizes that they cannot endlessly manufacture hits. At some point the fans really will begin to walk away in noticeable amounts. And for the Second Quarter of this year "April saw a decline with Kids 6-11 of roughly -08%." "In a year-to-year comparison, the Tweens 9-14 demographic dropped -11%." May went on to drop "another -08% (Total Program Day)." "June saw double-digit declines in every notable kids demographic." For kids 6-11 the decline was "-11% (TPD) and -15% (Primetime)" year-to-year. "From a larger perspective, Disney Channel lost more viewers in Primetime than throughout the entire day of programming, in each demographic. The largest of such losses, in June 2008, were with Tweens. Tweens 9-14 viewership decreased -16% (TPD) and down another -21% (Primetime)." Disney has been heavily targeting the Tweens, and that's where they had the largest drop! This they have to notice! For more information, see the SDS Blog. KP Attraction Article The coming Kim Possible attraction at Epcot has gotten some local press coverage. You can read the full article on the SDS Blog. HM DVD set On November 18, 2008 the Hannah Montana Season 1 Boxset will be released! This is obviously most exciting for the Hannah Montana fans (BTW, you can preorder it on Amazon now for 30$ off) but it also signifies that disney is now willing to release Box Sets of current shows! It's time for fans of all DC shows to step up their calls for full season boxsets. I'm certainly going to make sure to mention the HM boxset in my KP Legacy Day letters. The Suite Life Spin Off Finally, I just wanted to give you all a reminder that The Suite Life spin off, The Suite Life On Deck, premieres later this month. And if you haven't heard the name Debby Ryan yet, you will soon enough. You can find some new photos from the premiere of the show aboard the Disney Cruise Line (Disney loves their synergy) over on Disney Channel Fans. This concludes this edition of the SDS newsletter(s). Thanks for reading from all of us at Save Disney Shows.
