Radio Disney is celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with a very nostalgic tribute to Disney Channel's Camp Rock. In this exclusive clip, singer and actress Bridget Barrera performs the film's hit song "This Is Me" in Spanish, titled "Lo Que Soy." Not only is Barrera's performance just as moving as Demi Lovato's original track, but she also has a special connection to the 2008 movie: her mom is Maria Canals-Barrera!

ABC is at this point so enamored with the idea of television that weaves in melodrama and struggles under the weight of dragging along its own gimmick that it can’t leave an interesting premise alone.
Such are the problems you have to hope drift to the sidelines as Conviction maneuvers through further episodes.
The heart of the show revolves around a new investigative unit in New York City – the Conviction Integrity Unit – that gets five days per case to go over convictions to see if they can find any innocent people who are sitting behind bars. The team consists of a prosecutor, a star defense attorney, a crack investigator, and a specialist in forensics and all things science related.
It’s not a bad premise, and it gives us a chance to explore police drama from a fresh perspective and stay on top of headlines and/or the relevant niche of the zeitgeist.

Lucky 7 is yet another translation of British television for American audiences, and it’s about par for the course. While some efforts (mostly long ago and far away, with the exception of The Office) have come together to create long-lived, and beloved series, this isn’t an avenue of series creation that has a solid, recent track record.
Based on the British show, The Syndicate, it’s the story of a group of coworkers at a gas station who have been playing the same numbers for years, and fear for the jobs as rumors abound that the station is closing. All with their own monetary woes, which are laid out for us in great detail, this rag tag assortment of characters is about to find out that there are a lot of problems that come with their sudden riches.
The main trouble this show is going to have is in the translation of format.
