Jonas (also known as Jonas L.A. for the second season), is a Disney Channel Original Series created by Michael Curtis and Roger S. H. Schulman, starring the Jonas Brothers. The pilot was filmed in September 2008,[2] the series premiered on Disney Channel on May 2, 2009, and became available on demand starting on April 25, 2009.[3]

Jonas L.A. was the first Disney Channel Original Series since Phil of the Future not to be shot on videotape in a multi-camera format, be filmed before a live studio audience, or use a laugh track.[4] The series was the first on the network to premiere on a Saturday night, part of a deliberate strategy by Disney to open up the night to original programming.[5]

On November 9, 2009, it was announced that Jonas was being picked up for a second season.[6] On May 5, 2010, it was revealed that the name of the series was changed to Jonas L.A., reflecting the move to Los Angeles, making it the first Disney Channel sitcom to have the show's main setting change during the course of the series. The second season premiered on June 20, 2010, and ended on October 3, 2010. In November 2010, the series was canceled after two seasons.
