Phil of the Future really not coming back…?

Cancelling the best damn show on Disney after only 2 short seasons, was one thing….but this? Unacceptable!

So, I might be way late on this news, but nonetheless, I’m just a bit irked by it. As most of our readers know, we concentrate on our 4 girls, with heavy concentration on Disney’s next generation and the Wildcats. But for this post alone, we’re going back – way back for a little vintage!Disney. Phil of the Future, starring Ricky (Raviv) Ullman, Alyson Michalka and once upon a time, Brenda Song, has officially been taken off of the air.

The reason I blog about this now is that Phil was my first Disney show that I followed religiously. I loved it! Who didn’t love Phil and his undying love for Keely? And can we mention Pim? Amy Bruckner was awesome in that role! I loved her spats with Debbie (played by Kay Panabaker). And let’s not get started on the brilliance that J.P. Manoux delivered in the role of Curtis. I’ll have an essay on that one.

Disney has decided to pull Phil from it’s 12:30 a.m. timeslot (yes, I sometimes stay up this late and wish to watch it. The best and only thing to watch at that time.) effective on the 8th of September. See, told ya I was late to the news. But nevertheless, I still want it back! No wonder I’ve been getting those dumb Replacement cartoons. :irked: And what’s worse? It’s not getting another timeslot! Jill is upset. Disney, do not make Jill upset. It doesn’t look good on her. Ask Chay.

There are no boxsets, no other channels picking it up like WGN did for Lizzie McGuire….yea, still upset. And I can not wait another 10 years before it’s released from the illusive “Disney Vault”…so here, go here and see how you can help not make Jill upset. At least give me my boxsets!

    Oh NO! You’re not the only one, Jill, I hadn’t heard about this news either. I’m so sad; I was just watching this on Disney randomly the other day and it made me happy because I used to love it as well. :(

  2. jenni says:

  4. Natalie says:

    oh my god!!!!! noooo i love ricky ullman! that was THE best disney show of all time, they can’t do this to us! It’s bad enough that we only had two seasons of shows but now they’re taking it all away from us? How could Disney do this to us!

  5. kay says:

    WHAT??? I’ll admit t the beginning I didn’t really like this show and then as I started watching the reruns 2 or 1 month ago I figured out I LOVE it now!!! Man, disney can’t do this! But I do like the Replacements.

  6. Krystal says:

    omg!!!! potf was the first show i ever followed religiously too!!!! in fact, its the whole reason i started watching disney in the first place. phil and keely were also the first couple i ever supported and i still think theyre the best couple disneys EVER come up with. its because of them i even started to support couples at all really. that sucks! phil of the future deserves so much better than that.

  7. Cake says:

    ugh I LOVE that show!

    Fortunately they are still showing it in UK. There’s a double bill on during the day.

    It might be back once in a while, I don’t know… I love teen angel and every couple of years they seem to pull it out n start showing it again… Nickelodeon do this kind of thing a lot. At least in the UK anyway!

    Boooo thats dumb. I really liked that show, it was so
    funny and different! I only watch disney for the shows
    with real people on it. I don’t like the cartoons really.
    The only cartoon I watch is Phineas and Ferb [forgive
    me if I spelled that incorectly 0:)] I think that show is
    so cute and funny. And I love Ashleys voice in it.

    Phil of the Future was just such a great idea for a show.
    Normally shows are just families, being families, POTF was
    awesome because it was SO different. Not the same ol’ same ol’
    Whats not entertaining about a family from the future?

  9. Becky says:

    OMG! Jill-Renay, I agree with EVERYTHING you said! I was so freaking mad when it was no longer listed at the 12:30am timeslot!!!!!! I’m so sad! :( Thank you so much for blogging about this!

    Shout out to my friend, J.P. Manoux! :)
    xoxo

  12. maddie says:

    I was SOOOOOOOOO mad when i found out i couldnt watch it anymore, BOXSETS i say!!!

  13. Zeiness says:

    We at SDS would love it if you joined in the Save PotF movement. It’s been dead for quite a while, with people mostly losing hope…

    Kinda like a candle slowly, but surely, burning out.

  14. Greg says:

    Jill, I just wanted to let you know I appreciate your spreading the word about Phil.

    I didn’t even get all the episodes recorded before they pulled the show off the air.

    I don’t know if we can get disney to put the show back on the air, but there’s nothing stopping Disney from releasing box sets. We just need to show them that there are enough fans that want to buy them.

    Dude!! I loved this how!! how could they do that??? I liked Lizzie Mcgure too..

  17. adie says:

    HOW CAN DO THAT? When I first got cable, Phil of the Future was my fave show. My first real love. They can’t take that off that air. That’s no fair.
