Does anybody know a really good site where they list all of the Disney Channel shows and the episodes of each one. By the way, does anybody else remember Under the Umbrella Tree?

Well, I don't know if there are any sites or not.

But I think the official last episode of Even Stevens was where it looked like the mother won the Senate election. Louis confessed his true feelings for Tawney, as did Tawney to Louis in video recordings. The father tells off his boss at his lawyer firm and quits. I think the older brother Donnie is ready to go off to college. But it is found out that there was an error in the counting of the votes, and the mother ended up losing, and the father was left without a job. But Louis was pretty happy that they weren't going to move to Washington D.C. after all. I guess they kind of left that episode so they could add more shows if Disney decided to green light another season. I guess the final "hoorah" for Evens Stevens was the Even Stevens Movie made exclusively for the Disney Channel. Pretty much any show that has made a movie has ended the series.

But sorry, I don't know what you are talking about when you refer to Under the Umbrella Tree.

The Phil of the Future episode in question was on today at 7:30. I was able to see the full story this time. They kind of bring Phil and Keely's relation ship to its peak and then splits them apart all in one episode. It looks like they've made the episode to pretty much end any question of Phil and the gang coming back. Apparently in the future they invented a "Because of the Diffys" law which means that once the family returns to the future, they can never come back. In the episode the mother, father, and even Pim get caught trying to destroy the time machine (or at least its motor or something) so they can stay in the present, but Phil says they have to go because that is where they belong. Although in the ending they never officially get to the future, because they "back up" in time to return to get the caveman, Curtis.

It is weird how they just ended it. There was not really any characters that remained on the show other than the Diffys, Keely, and the Vice Principal. Remember when Brenda Song was on it at the begining, as well as Phil's male friend and Pim's perky friend?

They could have set up a lot more story between Phil and Keely. I kind of like Alyson Michalka. I saw her a couple of times filming a Disney 411 episode at Disneyland in March of 2005, getting ready for the 50th Anniversary for Disneyland. She was with her sister, A.J., and the girl host. She was just walking around the park while they filming.

They didn't even make a Phil of the Future Disney Channel Original Movie, like they did with Even Stevens. It seemed like it only lasted for a few years. I can still remember the 5-minute shorts that would set up Phil of the Future where you would see the Diffys in 2021 getting ready to book their vacation into time.

I remember under the umbrella tree. It had one main woman who owned the house and then 3 puppet characters. I remember the female puppet named Gloria. Or was that the human woman?

Anyhow, I know what you're talking about! :lol:
