They also use an elevator music version in a couple episodes. Here's info at the Phineas & Ferb Wiki:

Ah. When the mom was a One Hit Wonder. How could I have forgotten that?

I enjoy Hannah Montanah, Suite Life of Zack and Cody/On Deck, and Wizards of Waverly Place. However, I would dump all of them for Phineas and Ferb. It's in a whole other league in which those other shows cannot compete. If you ever saw Rocco's Modern Life, Phineas and Ferb is created and developed by two directors from that show.

I like those shows too. Not too crazy about Suite Life, but Hannah and Wizards can be pretty funny.

Are you watching Sonny With A Chance? I didn't like it the first time I saw it, but then it started to grow on me.

Yes, you should be watching this show. Watch it on DisneyHD if possible. And keep in mind that some of the funniest moments are the inside jokes. So the more you watch the funnier it gets.

Suite Life is the weakest of the three but enjoyable nonethless. I love that Dylan Sprouse (Zack) seems to be doing a Bruce Campbell impersonation every chance he gets. Heck, given all the TV show guest stars that just pop up outta nowhere (they had the captain of the Love Boat as a retired vacationer in one episode), I'd love it if they somehow got Bruce Campbell to appears as their uncle. Cole Sprouse (Cody) does get grating after a while and I dunno what idiot thought a character like Woody was a good idea. Debby Ryan shows potential and Phill Lewis is always dependable. And I just plain adore Brenda Song even if I'd rather see her do more movies like Wendy Wu (apparently she's finally making a sequel to that) and Stuck In The Suburbs.

I tried five times to get into Sonny With A Chance but I just can't. I like Demi Lovato. She doesn't quite have the comic timing of Selena Gomez or the goofball charm of Miley Cyrus but she's quite a likeable presence. And I do like her love/hate interactions with Sterling Knight (he was such a loveable loser in 17 Again). The only other standout with some potential is Tiffany Thornton. However, all the good ends there. I hate the sketches, the jokes, and the supporting characters. I also hate that the direction the cast is given is to act like Jim Carrey on a laughing gas overdose.

I'd rather see Demi Lovato, Sterling Knight, Tiffany Thornton, and Eden Sher (she was Sonny's best friend in one of the episodes I watched) in a different and much better show.

BTW, if you like Wizards of Waverly Place, check out the movie. It was funny and had a whole lot of heart. I wish I'd known the cast was here when they were shooting it. I would have loved to see that and maybe meet Steve Valentine. He was great as usual. I look forward to his portraying a sleazebag in Uncharted 2. Princess Protection Program (also shot in Puerto Rico) was pretty good too. However, Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie was much better.

Now if only Disney would make a movie with Maria Canals-Barrera and Sully Diaz.

I agree with you on all those points. The sketches are horrible and the two guys are annoying. Demi and Sterling are both good. And I think Tiffany Thornton usually steals the show. I hope Disney can find more stuff for her.

The Wizards movie was pretty good. It was nice seeing them off the soundstage and in the real world. The setting was great. But I wish it was more lighthearted (like the series). They're replaying it tonight at 8PM. I've got Princess Protection on the DVR, but haven't seen it yet.

On Dec. 11th at 2:00 EST, Disney Channel is showing 12 straight shows, angled at Duffenschmurtz's evil schemes. After that is a new episode for Christmas.
