Disney Channel has ordered a third season of its popular live-action comedy 'Sydney to the Max' ahead of its season two premiere, scheduled for 2020. The endearing daughter/father comedy, set in the present day with flashbacks to the 1990s, follows middle schooler Sydney Reynolds who lives with her single dad, Max, and her unconventional grandmother, Judy. As Sydney navigates becoming a teenager alongside her bestie Olive, Max's flashbacks of his childhood with his best friend Leo parallel her adventures, illustrating how life's 'growing pains' never change. The series stars Ruth Righi, Ian Reed Kesler, Caroline Rhea, Jackson Dollinger, Ava Kolker and Christian J. Simon. Created and executive produced by Mark Reisman ('Frasier,' 'Wings,' 'The Exes'), the show is currently in production on season two.

Disney Channel has picked up a second season of the popular live-action daughter/father comedy 'Sydney to the Max,' starring 13-year-old actress/musical artist Ruth Righi in the title role of Sydney. Geared for kids ages 6-14 and families, the series is set in the present day with flashbacks to the 1990s and follows outgoing middle schooler Sydney Reynolds, who lives with her single dad Max (Ian Reed Kesler, 'Suits'), in the house he grew up in, along with her progressive grandmother Judy (Caroline Rhea, 'Sabrina the Teenage Witch,' Disney's 'Phineas and Ferb'). As Sydney's preteen pursuits begin to expand, Max's flashbacks of his childhood help him gain a better perspective of his daughter's experiences. Created and executive produced by Mark Reisman ('Frasier,' 'Wings,' 'The Exes'), production on season two will commence later this summer.
