Who is jessie on disney channel

With a whole new world of experiences open to her, Jessie embarks on new adventures in the big city as she grows to rely on the love and support of the children in her care. The series was created by Pamela Eells O'Connell who'd had previous experience with the "nanny" sitcom formula, starting her career as a writer on the series, Charles in Charge and serving as co-executive producer on The Nanny , before working with Debby Ryan on The Suite Life on Deck. O'Connell is said to have developed Jessie specifically to showcase Ryan's talent.

In an interview with the Star-Telegram , Ryan explained how the concept originated - " O'Connell and I were throwing ideas back and forth when The Suite Life was coming to an end, and she came up with this. I was absolutely captivated. Then Disney looked at the script and the showrunner O'Connell and myself and they were like: 'Awesome. We like it. You're on in the fall'". Debby is a talented young actress who connects to a wide fanbase because she's genuine, relatable and aspirational all at once.

Our viewers have followed her from The Suite Life on Deck to 16 Wishes , and we're pleased to be working with her again.

Before casting was finalized, there were numerous differences in the original concept for several of the characters. The role of mother to the Ross children was originally a photographer named "Pandora", the role of eldest daughter, Emma was originally named "Anabel", the role of Luke was originally a boy adopted from Korea named "Hiro" and the role of Ravi was originally a boy adopted from South America named "Javier" who had a pet capybara instead of a monitor lizard. Some have speculated that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie , as a prominent celebrity couple with a multicultural adoptive family, may have been one possible inspiration for the series.

That fish out of water element makes for good stories, and I was inspired by many families who have adopted children of different ethnicities.

After casting was finalized and changes were made to several of the characters to suit the actors chosen, the series skipped the pilot phase and was put directly into production.

Thirteen episodes were originally ordered for the first season, but while the show's first season was in production, Disney Channel ordered an additional seven episodes bringing the total number of episodes for the first season to twenty.
