HQ Scans of Seventeen - June 2009

Was the Jonas Brothers’ new TV show a one-week wonder? Is Fox demanding an American Idol recount? And what was the final Nielsen verdict on Dollhouse?

The answers—and more questions—in this week’s ratings quiz:

1. Have Joe, Nick and Kevin flopped again?
No, and, by the way, their concert movie didn’t really flop, either. But the brothers are bad at playing the expectations game. A week after their Disney Channel sitcom, JONAS, debuted to solid numbers, the show lost nearly half its audience (from 4 million viewers to 2.2 million, per the latest Nielsen weekly rankings), and fell from cable’s Top 15 to cable’s Top 100-something, which, in the grand scheme of things, is still a very good showing—unless you’re trying to live up to the media’s expectations for a world-famous act.

2. What happened to JONAS?
iCarly, it would seem.
Nick’s new iCarly hour-long special, iDate a Bad Boy, scored a cable-best 6.5 million viewers. Not only did the show air opposite JONAS, 8-8:30 p.m. on Saturday, it won, dominated and otherwise stole Jonas’ target tween audience.

JONAS - 1×01 - “Wrong Song” Screen Captures

On Taylor Swift’s 2008 LP Fearless, there’s a heartbreaking song called “Forever & Always,” which is about her ex-boyfriend, Joe Jonas. Swift actually filmed a MySpace video with a Joe doll in which she refers to their split: “This one even comes with a phone so it can break up with other dolls!” This week, the Jonas Brothers seem to have struck back in the first single from their forthcoming album, Lines, Vines and Trying Times.

The Jonas Brothers posted “Paranoid,” from their June 16th LP, on their MySpace page late yesterday, and while it’s a far, far, far cry from the Black Sabbath song of the same name, it does edge into slightly harder territory than than the sugary power pop of last year’s A Little Bit Longer. On the synth-heavy tune, Joe Jonas is “caught in a nightmare/can’t wake up.” But for those reading for, say, teen turmoil, this passage may set off alarms: “That’s why my ex is still my ex/I never trust a word she says/I’m running all the background checks/And she’s freaking out.” It’s not 50 Cent vs. Rick Ross, but it’s something.

The band has been Tweeting like mad lately, posting updates and photos from the set of the “Paranoid” video shoot; the video was directed by the Malloys, who helmed the band’s previous clip for “Burnin’ Up.”

The Jonas Brothers’ world tour hits the State June 20th in Arlington, Texas, and in March the band revealed the set would be in the round. “We’ve always talked about wanting to do a tour like that, and this has been our first opportunity. It’s a way for us to really connect with our fans,” Nick Jonas said. “This new album for us I wouldn’t say it’s a big jump, but it definitely is a progression in our music and a growth for us,” he noted. “It has a lot of more kind of horns and a lot more strings. Also there’s more to the music rather than just a typical kind of relationship song,” added Joe Jonas.

 

BURBANK, Calif., April 30 (UPI) — The fraternal U.S. pop group Jonas Brothers plans to release its fourth album “Lines, Vines and Trying Times” June 16, Hollywood Records said.
“Paranoid,” the first single off the CD, will hit the airwaves and Internet May 8, and will also be available through Verizon for ring tones. The single will be sold as a digital download on iTunes, starting May 12.

“This is a personal experience for me. (The track) ‘World War III’ deals with the challenge of a girl who keeps attacking you, provoking you, trying to fight you, but all the while she’s the only one fighting,” Nick Jonas said in a news release.

“Fly with Me,” which is also the end title credit for the upcoming “Night at the Museum 2″ film, was written by the Jonas Brothers and their bass player Greg Garbowsky.

“We wrote this song for the last record while on the road and felt the old-school sound was more cohesive with our present style,” Nick Jonas added.

In explaining the title of the album, Joe Jonas said, “Lines are the ‘proverbial’ lines people will feed you, and vines are obstacles that get in your way.”

The JB just made their first official tweet…

Jonas Brothers do not yet have a definite title for their fourth album; it is tentatively titled Lines, Vines, and Trying Times. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Nick Jonas said “The title is a bit of poetry we came up with on the set for the TV show,” on the meaning he explained, “Lines are something that someone feeds you, whether it’s good or bad. Vines are the things that get in the way of the path that you’re on, and trying times — well, obviously we’re younger guys, but we’re aware of what’s going on in the world and we’re trying to bring some light to it.”

In another interview in Billboard, Nick Jonas explains that the album is “our journal in songs,” mostly about “all things we’ve gone through, personal experiences we get inspiration from.” He added, “we’ve also been working on trying to use metaphors…to kind of mask a literal thing that happens to us.” Kevin Jonas said, “the overall message is its the same old Jonas Brothers, in a sense” and that they will be adding “different musical instruments that are going to add and build to the sound we already have.”

Just five days after its release of the album on June 15th they embark on a world tour. The tour gets underway in Dallas with Jordin Sparks as the opening act. Following Justin Timberlake and Metallica’s lead, Jonas Brothers made the bold choice to do this tour in-the-round and in turn provide their fans with an intimate setting despite the 50 date tour being exclusively in arenas. Nick Jonas has said that there will be more front seats for and that they have always wanted to do a tour like this in which they can connect with more of their fans.
