Her revolving wardrobe and huge collection of wigs and shoes were enough to make a grown woman cry. The one who we now know as the rebellious Miley Cyrus was an on-screen rocking teenage pop star, Hannah Montana. 

All of us might be great singers inside our bathrooms, but Miley Cyrus had the capability to rock your world with her high-pitched music. Hannah Montana goes about the life of a 14-year-old sheltered pop star who lives a double life. She is a normal teenager at home and school who struggles to juggle her daily life between her family and friends. But in front of the audience, she is this heartthrob singer who has a massive fan following, which includes her naive best friends who don’t know anything about her not-so ‘little’ secret. The four seasons take us through the ups and downs of her life and her journey toward living as a free-spirited adult. 

#2 Wizards Of Waverly Place (2007-2012)

Wizards Of Waverly Place (2007-2012) establishes Selena Gomez as a household name. Her cute looks and ‘wizardry’ amused the audience. A 15-year-old Selena Gomez played the role of Alex, a wizard in training who always ends up getting herself in some kind of trouble with her magic. 

The story of the series revolves around the life of a normal family hiding a big secret from the world. In the eyes of the world, they own a sandwich shop that is designed to look like a subway station. But behind closed doors, the Russo family has three children who are currently wizards in training. Their father, Jerry Russo, is a master of his craft and wants the same success for his children. However, after marrying a mortal, Theresa, all his powers were replenished.

The Suite Life Of Zack And Cody (2005-2008) saw the rise of the Sprouse brothers. Two is always better than one, and that was proved by the identical twins Dylan and Cole. The duo establishes themselves as the favorite teen actors with good looks and impeccable comic timing. 

The Suite Life Of Zack And Cody, as the title suggests, takes us through the life of two brothers who live in a five-star hotel. Yes! Live!.

The series takes us through Lizzie’s personal growth from an adolescent to an adult while dealing with the daily menaces of life. 

#8 Jonas (2009-2010)

We thank go every day because we are lucky enough to breathe the same air as the Jonas brothers. Jonas (2009-2010) was the first-ever original show by Disney Channel and also the one to be premiered on a Saturday night. 

After appearing in previous Disney Channel production, including Hannah Montana and Camp Rock, the Jonas brothers bagged themselves a show with their good looks and amazing acting, In Jonas, the trio plays the role of disguised government secret agents, working for the Junior Operatives Network as Spies aka JONAS.
