What is it about the Disney Channel that makes so many people want to be cast in their productions?

It seems as though every teen on here wants to be on Disney. Why? I don't get it!What is it about the Disney Channel that makes so many people want to be cast in their productions?
There aren't many other tv channels that are mainly for young actors/actresses. Teens (including myself) see how successful these people are at such young ages, and they think that it's the easiest way to become famous. I, personally, would not pick disney channel as my first choice for an acting job. I would much rather do broadway, but if the opportunity for being on disney came up, no question, (as much as I hate to admit it) i'd jump at it!!
People are fooling themselves. Miley Cyrus did not get into Disney because she sent them a picture. She already had an agent for years before going on Disney. She got into entertainment solely because of her father's industry connections - her first acting role was on her father's show "Doc"



Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez both had parents in the entertainment industry as well - Demi's mother was a country music star and Selena's mother was not only a theater actress, but also worked on film/tv as a makeup artist, production manager and assistant director. It was these connections that helped bring them to Disney, not their talent. And if you look into the backgrounds of lots of other Disney stars, you'll see again and again that they either had parents or other family members already in the entertainment industry



Don't believe the Disney PR hype that all these people were "discovered" randomly or just sent in pictures. It makes a good story but is far from reality



I don't know why people want to be on Disney either. They might have a few years of fame as a child/teen star, but nobody is going to take them seriously afterwards. There are very few child stars who can make the successful transition to serious actor as an adult. Does anyone really think Miley Cyrus will still be acting when she's 25 - except maybe in some really cheesy made for TV movies of Lifetime or Hallmark channel?What is it about the Disney Channel that makes so many people want to be cast in their productions?
disney has a way of taking someone who could not catch a break because they don't have a teaspoon of talent and making them into a tv star/singer if you want to see something that makes your jaw drop with disgust watch drake and josh, an actually good disney show then look at the little girl amanda cosgrove...she got her own show and i believe a few songs out because she rode drake and josh's careers....damn you disney channel! anyway if you want your kid to be a star just go to disney and they will plan out your kids golden album when they are 5.....
Because disney stars are normal people who were given a chance. also the disney channel focuses on their stars a lot and they run commercials about them a lot and you learn a lot about these people froom watching their shows. it makes the kids want to be like them too.What is it about the Disney Channel that makes so many people want to be cast in their productions?
i dont get it signing on with disney just prooves that u have no talent or not enough to make it in the real acting world. I would never agree to thaht and those ppl just want fame and fortune ... and a lot of them are lil kids who idolise demi or selena or miley.
Because - listen to Miley Cyrus sing and then think that Disney was able to make her a millionaire. They work miracles over there!
