‘High School Musical 2′ Makes TV History
As Borat would say, BIG SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!
High School Musical 2 pulled in a record 17.2 million viewers Friday night, tuning into the premiere of the sequel to the hit 2006 film. It was the most-watched basic cable telecast of all time.
HSM 2 also became the most-watched Friday telecast in more than five years.
According to Variety, “HSM2 tuner now ranks as the most-watched TV movie ever with kids 6-11, drawing 6.1 million viewers in that demo, and the most-watched ever with tweeners 9-14, drawing 5.9 million viewers in that demo, according to Disney Channel.”

Vanessa’s legs are short. but she knows how to dress up, and she always looks sooo pretty. she’s my style icon. go shorties! :)
i havn’t watched the movie but im definitely looking forward to viewing it in hk…when the dvd’s out. im sure it was a great movie, musicals are always great! =)
I loved it! Watched it with my kids and it was great - I knew it would do huge numbers. I think they do that by Neilson Ratings where people sign up to be a Neilson family for a week and then write down everything they watch, but I’m not sure. Next week HSM2 soundtrack will be No. 1 for the rest of the year I bet.
I loved it even more the second time around and we will watch again tonight for the sing-a-long. My favorite song is Bet On It, but that was the only thing I found odd the whole dance routine Zac did to that song, but I just went with it. The chemistry he and baby v have together is just so cute to watch, the fact that they are a real life couple you could see it come shining through when they were together. It was all just great!!
I did hear HSM3 would be made for movie theaters, it will probably focus around them graduating high school and heading off to college. The story will have to grow up with them, so it makes sense they’d go to the theaters and like you said - the box office would be totally off the hook!!!

I absolutely agree with you! They need more shows like this on tv that you can watch as a family and not have the remote in your hand hoping you can switch away quickly when something objectionable or sleazy comes on. Its horrible.
THANK JJ for keeping up with all the HSM2 news and the cast and zanessa!
You are the best!
I heard from my niece’s friend that Zac isn’t dating Vanessa anymore, but is instead dating an actress from Hairspray. Anyone else hear this?
I think he and the adorable nikki blonsky ar just good friends…but if they’re more than just friends than more power to them…may they enjoy their love…zak seems to like her a lot i can see…and it seems that he’s the type who can appreciate all sizes and sees what’s inside…
High School Musical 2 Was the best movie ever and Zac looked so hot when he was Shirtless in the movie!
IT’S HUUUUUUUUGE!
#29 Frances, it’s NOT Nikki who’s seen lounging around the pool in his apartment complex…last siting of Zac and this brunette poolside was last Sunday ;)
Franceds….Zac and Vanessa are still dating.
i loved the movie!
zac and vanessa were soooo cute in it, by far the cutest couple ever!
omg, two of my nieces fell asleep on my lap, and i was in front of the tv with about ten of my little cousins in the basement forced to watch hsm 2. that’s a portion of my life put to waste. children should be outside getting some fresh air instead of watching a horrid movie with poor acting.

Am I the only person who doesn’t know what this “High School Musical” thing is? I mean I keep seeing stories and pics of these people, but who the hell are they and what the hell is this thing? It doesn’t interest me enough to find out anything about it. And that lady guy, Zac, is creepy.
im so happy that it rated so well
LOVED THE MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!
my fav song was gotta go my own way, such a sweet scene
i dont mean to be the dead ringer or nothing but that movie grossed me out. so darn cutesy flootsy rootsy. maybe its just becuz i like deeper stuff, that leaves me thinking bout it after. i hated it. and vanessa hudgens laugh in every seen drove me insane.
