## Synopsis

Hannah Montana (2006-2011) is a American Disney Channel tween sitcom created by Barry O'Brien, Rich Correll, and Michael Poryes for Disney Channel. Miley Cyrus stars as Miley Stewart, a typical teenager who becomes the glamorous pop star Hannah Montana when the lights go up, and she must keep her secret identity from her friends and classmates. Emily Osment plays her best friend Lilly Truscott, who knows the secret and gets pulled into the hilarious capers, while Jason Earles plays older brother Jackson Stewart and Billy Ray Cyrus plays their father Robby Ray Stewart. Mitchel Musso and Moises Arias round out the supporting cast as Oliver Oken and Rico Suave. Across four seasons and ninety-eight episodes, the engine of each installment is a small domestic or school problem that threatens to expose the double life, resolved through quick comic misunderstandings and staged concert numbers. The series is a light, bright, family-friendly comedy with a breezy, upbeat tone and a warm bond among its friends. Set in a suburban Malibu household, it sits in the vein of Wizards of Waverly Place and That's So Raven, and fans of those tween sitcoms will find the same playful mix of music and mischief.
