It’s a Laugh Productions is
in production on the second season of the hit Disney Channel family teen sitcom
series "Jessie", and the casting directors are auditioning talent for
recurring, guest starring, and day player roles. Extras are cast throughout the

Two-time Primetime Emmy
Award nominee Pamela Eells O'Connell is executive producer with her company Bon
Mot Productions. She is also the head writer and showrunner. On a television
show, the writer is the executive producer, or the boss. In movies it is
different. There the director is the boss. Everybody reports to the executive
producer in TV - costumes, props, art direction on the set, what an individual
set looks like, the music, everything, comes to the writer for final approval.
O'Connell revels in this position. Don Mink and Amy Rabins produce for It's a
Laugh Productions.
In 2012 to date,
"Jessie" is TV’s #1 series in Kids 2-11 (3.014 million/7.3 rating),
Kids 6-11 (2.536 million/10.3 rating) and Tweens 9-14 (2.122 million/8.8
rating). Disney Consumer Products has launched the D-Signed Jessie Prescott
Collection, a line of tween apparel inspired by the Jessie character.
Exclusively available at Target, the collection includes spring dresses,
layered skirts and embellished tees that embody the character's style with a
mix of sophistication and youthful design for a fun, polished look.

Story:
The series follows Jessie Prescott (Debby Ryan), an
18-year-old small town girl with big dreams who, rebelling against her strict
Marine Sergeant father, decides to leave the military base in Texas where she
grew up and moves to New York City. She accepts a job as a nanny and moves into
a multi-million dollar penthouse on the Upper West Side with the wealthy Ross
family which includes; jet-setting parents, Morgan (Charles Esten) and
Christina (Christina Moore); and their four rambunctious children: Emma (Peyton
List), Luke (Cameron Boyce), Ravi (Karan Brar) and Zuri (Skai Jackson); along
with the family pet (and Ravi’s companion) Mr. Kipling, a seven-foot monitor
lizard. With a whole new world of experiences open to her, Jessie embarks on new
adventures in the big city as she grows to rely on the love and support of the
children in her care. Assisting her are Bertram, the family’s sarcastic butler
(Kevin Chamberlin), and Tony (Chris Galya), the building’s 20-year-old doorman.
