Disney Channel Has One Big Week in Ratings

On Sunday (July 5), the Disney Channel had some amazing ratings. It started off with the hour long broadcast of the Hannah Montana episode “He Could Be The One”. This special episode, according to Variety, was cable’s most watched program last week. It drew in 6.9 million viewers!

In “He Could Be the One” part one, Miley agrees to go steady with Jake again, but she worries that all of the times she complained about Jake might have turned Robbie against the young man. When she learns that Robbie dislikes Jesse, a trouble making teen guitarist in Hannah’s band, Miley hatches a plan to make Jake look great.

In part two, Miley’s scheme to get Jake back into Robbie’s good graces works out beautifully and she believes that they are headed for a happy ending. Things change, however, when Miley realizes that Robbie misjudged Jesse’s true nature and she now finds herself drawn to the handsome musician. You can watch both episodes here.

I watched this episode and it definitely ranks up there with one of my favorites.

Not only did Hannah Montana do well, but two shows that followed had great rankings as well. “Sonny with a Chance” had 5.17 million viewers and “JONAS” 4.03 million.

The Disney Channel topped ABC, NBC and Fox. Nice.
