Zap2it's 2007 Guilty Pleasures: Hannah Montana
Disney Channel

One Sunday I stumbled across Hannah Montana and had to watch because Dolly Parton was a guest star. Turns out there was a marathon and several hours later I was hooked. How many viewers in this shows target audience get the homage paid from naming her love interst Jake Ryan? And who doesnt love the idea of being able to disguise your identity and turn into a rock star by donning a blonde wig? I still like The Ns Instant Star more (not to mention the dearly departed Radio Free Roscoe), but I can always count on Hannah for my tween entertainment fix.
