Shake It Up is an American sitcom that originally aired on Disney Channel from November 7, 2010, to November 10, 2013. Created by Chris Thompson and starring Bella Thorne and Zendaya, the show follows the adventures of CeCe Jones (Bella Thorne) and Rocky Blue (Zendaya) as they star as background dancers on a local show, Shake It Up Chicago. It also chronicles their misadventures on and off-set and their troubles and rising social status at school. Davis Cleveland, Roshon Fegan, Adam Irigoyen, Kenton Duty, and Caroline Sunshine play other main characters in the series. The show's original concept was for Disney to create a female buddy comedy with a dance aspect.
On September 29, 2011, Disney Channel announced it had increased Shake It Up's second season order to 26 episodes.[1] A 90-minute special episode Made In Japan aired August 17, 2012, as the season two finale.[2] On June 4, 2012, Disney Channel announced that Shake It Up was renewed for a third season[3] and announced that Kenton Duty would not be a regular cast member for season 3, but would instead make special guest appearances. Despite this announcement, he did not appear in a single episode.[4]
On July 25, 2013, Disney Channel officially announced that Shake It Up would end its run after three seasons. The final episode aired on November 10, 2013.[5]
