The Morning After: YR JONAS REVUS PLZ KTHXBAI
Camp Rock, the Jonas Brothers' movie / tween excitation vehicle, grabbed 8.9 million viewers on Disney Channel Friday and another 3.6 million on ABC Saturday night. That's not quite the 17.2 million High School Musical 2 got, but it was better than anything anyone else put on TV all weekend—and considering it was essentially the same movie as HSM2, that's not too shabby. If you or anyone you know is in the demo and watched, tell me: what's the tween buzz on the movie? Also, scenarios for the inevitable Camp Rock 2 are welcomed!
