It ain’t High School Musical, that’s for sure. The Fast National Ratings are in for the premiere of Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam, and fall significantly short Disney’s expectations. Here’s a comparison of how Camp Rock 2 ranks among other Disney Channel premieres.

High School Musical 2 – 17.2 million viewers
Wizards On Deck with Hannah Montana – 9.3 million viewers
Camp Rock – 8.9 million viewers
Jump In! – 8.2 million viewers
Cheetah Girls 2 – 8.1 million viewers
Camp Rock 2 – 8 million viewers

What’s laughable is the spin Disney Channel is putting on these ratings by suggesting in a new press release that the Camp Rock 2 Opening Night Box Office Equivalent is $63 Million dollars. Just because people watch a TV show, doesn’t mean they’ll pay $7.95 for it – especially large families. Come on, what type of Mickey Mouse con job is that?

This coming week it’ll be interesting to see how strong Camp Rock 2 soundtrack sales are now that the movie has aired. A healthy uptick in sales should be expected, perhaps even putting it back in the Top 10.

Rockin’ the retail world! This month two T2 featured acts score some great exposure at retail outlets. Allstar Weekend can be seen at Costco and Tamar Kaprelian at Best Buy daily in their TV sections.

The Cartoon Network has set up a mini-site for Scooby-Doo! Curse of the Lake Monster starring Hayley Kiyoko from The Stunners. The World Premiere for the movie will be October 16th. Last week shooting wrapped for the Disney Channel Original Movie Lemonade Mouth that features Hayley alongside Bridgit Mendler, Adam Hicks and Chris Brochu.

The Comic Book Heroes have posted a video of their performance of Catch Me If You Can at the Hard Rock Cafe in NYC for J-14′s Intune Rocks concert event on August 26, 2010. Can you believe it… dueling guitars. Rock on Koz and Steve!
