UPtv Acquires The Mary Tyler Moore Show; Camp Rock 3 Coming Soon to Disney
Get ready for Mary Tyler Moore-nings on UPtv! Start your day with this witty sitcom featuring the loveable cast of The Mary Tyler Moore Show starting Monday, September 22, 2025 at 10am ET. The classic '70s sitcom will air weekdays from 10am-12pm.
The Mary Tyler Moore Show centers on Mary Richards (Mary Tyler Moore), a 30-year-old single woman who moves to Minneapolis to start a new life after a romantic break-up. There she re-acquaints with Phyllis (Cloris Leachman), who rents her a room, and meets her upstairs neighbor, Rhoda (Valerie Harper), who becomes her best friend. Mary unexpectedly lands a job as associate producer at the TV station WJM, where she works alongside her bristly boss, Lou (Ed Asner); the comical newswriter, Murray (Gavin MacLeod); and the newscast’s often-incompetent anchor, Ted (Ted Knight). Later seasons saw the addition of sharp-tongued Sue Ann (Betty White) to the newsroom, and the eventual departure of Leachman and Harper to their own individual spin-off series. The show cultivated its comedy from workplace relationships, family issues, and the characters’ quirky personality traits.
IT'S ON! Today, Disney Branded Television confirmed that Camp Rock 3 has been greenlit for Disney+ and Disney Channel. Joe, Nick and Kevin Jonas will return to their iconic roles. Demi Lovato and Joe, Nick and Kevin Jonas will executive produce the highly anticipated Disney Channel Original Movie. The movie began filming this week in Vancouver.
A new cast of stars on the rise joins the movie, including Liamani Segura (Descendants: Wicked Wonderland) as Sage, Malachi Barton (ZOMBIES 4: Dawn of the Vampires) as Fletch, Lumi Pollack (Electric Bloom) as Rosie, newcomer Hudson Stone as Desi, Casey Trotter (The Thundermans) as Cliff, Brooklynn Pitts as Callie and Ava Jean as Madison.
Joe Jonas will reprise his role as Shane Gray, Nick as Nate Gray and Kevin as Jason Gray, guest starring as the members of the band Connect 3. Also returning is Maria Canals-Barrera (Wizards of Waverly Place) as Connie. Sherry Cola (Joyride) joins the franchise as Lark.
The story picks up when Connect 3 lose their opening act for a major reunion tour, returning to their beloved Camp Rock to discover the next big thing. As campers vie for the chance to open for their favorite band, tensions rise and friendships are tested, leading to unexpected alliances, revelations and romances. Camp Rock’s all-new campers include bold and determined Sage (Segura) and her easygoing brother Desi (Stone), cello prodigy Rosie (Pollack), drummer with his own beat Cliff (Trotter), choreo queen Callie (Pitts), intimidating influencer Madison (Jean) and camp bad boy Fletch (Barton).
