Disney Replay Ratings (Even Stevens & Lizzie McGuire)

Disney Channel recently launched its version of ”Throwback Thursday” which is officially titled 'Disney Replay' in which the network airs old episodes of favourite Disney Channel shows at midnight from the past 10 years.

The Even Stevens episode “Influenza: The Musical” which aired on April 18, gained 1.5+ million viewers and the two back-to-back episodes of Lizzie McGuire “Between a Rock and a Bra Place” and “Gordo’s Bar Mitzvah” scored 1.065 million & 956,000 viewers on April 25.

Disney Channel Adds Classic Series to Wednesday Nights

Disney Channel is pulling a surprising, and sudden, schedule change to Wednesday nights starting this week. For the next three weeks, Disney has scheduled three different classic original series to air at midnight (ET/PT).

This Wednesday night (April 17), a single episode of Even Stevens will air: “Influenza: The Musical”.

Next Wednesday (April 24) at midnight is two back-to-back episodes of Lizzie McGuire: “Between a Rock and a Bra Place” and “Gordo’s Bar Mitzvah”.

The following Wednesday (May 1) at midnight is two back-to-back showings of Kim Possible: “Emotion Sickness” and “Bonding”.

This will be the first time a regular Even Stevens episode (minus the DCOM) has aired on Disney Channel since 2007. Lizzie McGuire was last seen on April 7, 2010 (minus a few airings of the movie that summer). Regular Kim Possible episodes have been off U.S. airwaves since Disney Channel did the “classic purge” on June 30, 2010 (where almost all non-current series were dropped from their late-night line-up).
