THIRD-CONSECUTIVE YEAR OF "PRANKSGIVING," A CORNUCOPIA OF FUN-FILLED PROGRAMMING FOR KIDS AGE 6-14, SET FOR NOVEMBER ON DISNEY XD

For the third-consecutive year, a cornucopia of prank-themed storylines so plentiful that they merit their own programming event, namely the popular "Pranksgiving," will be presented NOVEMBER 1-30 on Disney XD. Geared towards kids age 6-14, the programming event includes the premiere of an interstitial series created by acclaimed animation producers The Brothers McLeod ("Pedro and Franksheep," BAFTA winners for their work with BBC Learning) and will introduce the comical adventures of one clever turkey outsmarting one unsuspecting pilgrim.

Pranksgiving highlights also include hoax-themed episodes of the series "Lab Rats," "Kickin' It," "Mighty Med," "Kirby Buckets," "Wander Over Yonder" and "Phineas and Ferb"; the premiere of the original-movie "Pants on Fire," starring Bradley Steven Perry ("Mighty Med," "Good Luck Charlie"), Joshua J. Ballard ("Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days") and Tyrel Jackson Williams ("Lab Rats"); and an all-new edition of the hit hidden-camera series "Just Kidding," hosted by multi-talented actor Calum Worthy ("Austin & Ally").

November 2012 was Disney XD's #1 month ever in Primetime in Total Viewers, Kids 6-14, Kids and Boys 6-11 and Kids and Boys 2-11; while 2013 was its #2 month ever among Boys 6-14 and Boys 9-14, and #4 in Total Viewers and Kids 6-14.

Every day throughout the month is a premiere event on WATCHDisneyXD.com and the WATCH Disney XD app for smartphones, tablets and connected TVs. All shows in Disney XD's Pranksgiving and all-new episodes of "Star Wars Rebels" and "Gravity Falls," among others, will be available to verified viewers on WATCH before airing on TV. Also, the newly updated WATCH Prank-A-Tron 5000 game invites kids to pick from a prank-filled library of over 500 sounds from their favorite Disney XD shows, including "Kirby Buckets," "Star Wars Rebels" and "Phineas and Ferb."
