This was so fun! It was the perfect combination of nostalgia and behind-the-scenes insights for many of the shows that were center stage in my childhood. For anyone who grew up watching Disney Channel, this is worth the read!

Perfectly serviceable. Genuinely fine. I guess I was expecting more "I'm glad my mom died" but overall there wasn't that much to write about. It was more like reading a corporate approved Wikipedia article....

3.2/5. Trying to work in more non fiction into my reading. Thought the business behind Disney channel was interesting and the book made me feel nostalgic.

I loved this book!! It felt like it was perfectly tailored to me timeline wise for all the shows it covered. I loved the structure and how each show or movie got its own dedicated chapter so the reader could focus on one project at a time since each had their own trials and tribulations unique to them.

It was so fascinating to learn about not only the drama of so many nostalgic shows and the stars we’ve come to know and love, but the actual business side of everything and the lengths producers and show runners had to go through to get their projects on air. If you grew up a Disney Channel kid, I cannot recommend this book enough!!!
