Stuck In The Middle Latest News, Photos, and Videos

Kayla Maisonet is opening up about just what Stuck in the Middle meant to her.

“It means everything to me that the show focuses on showcasing that [representation],” the 18-year-old actress, who played Georgie, shared with NKD magazine recently.

Kayla adds, “There’s been a huge gap between Stuck in the Middle and the last Latino Disney family, which was on Wizards of Waverly Place. It makes me so happy that kids can watch my show and see people that look like them.”

“Growing up, whenever I’d watch TV, it was mostly kids with blonde hair and blue eyes onscreen but never anyone that looked like me,” she continues. “Representation is so important and I think Stuck in the Middle does a great job at including it.”

One of the most memorable moments for Kayla, personally, was Georgie’s Quinceanera.

“We often show[ed] traditional cooking and the family speaking in Spanish but my favorite was when we showed the cultural tradition of having a Quinceañera,” Kayla says. “It’s things like this that people have commented on and reacted so positively about.”

If you missed it, Disney has confirmed that Stuck in the Middle will end with season three.

Just before the weekend hit, we were saddened by the news that Stuck in the Middle wouldn’t be coming back for a fourth season.

Jenna Ortega shared an emotional speech to all her fans earlier, and her on-screen family Isaak Presley, Ariana Greenblatt, Nicolas Bechtel and Joe P. Nieves followed suit.

“3 years ago, an opportunity of a lifetime presented itself,” Isaak, who played Ethan, started out on Instagram. “Every kid’s dream of being on Disney had come true and I was given a family that will be my family forever.”

He continues, “Jenna, Kayla, Nick, Malachi, Ariana, Ronni, Joe, and Cerina. There were changes off screen and on screen over the years. Fights, pettiness, but always love. I learned how to be a better person through every single person on our cast and crew.”

“I am thankful to Disney for giving me the opportunity to portray Ethan Diaz, and giving me the opportunity to have such wonderful people in my life. Thank you to the fans of the show who have and will continue to support us, and I’m excited to see where the future takes myself and the rest of the cast. Happy Easter. Love you all.”

Jenna Ortega delivered a heartfelt speech to the Stuck in the Middle cast and crew after wrapping production on season three.

The actress shared the video on her Instagram on Friday (March 30), the same day Disney Channel announced that it would be the series’ last season.

“I’m just a girl from the Coachella Valley…wherever you’re from, shoot for the stars ✨ #stuckinthemiddle,” Jenna captioned the clip.

The comedy follows teenager Harley Diaz (Jenna) as she maneuvers her way through the bustle of being a middle child in a family with six other siblings.

The rest of the final season of Stuck in the Middle will begin airing this summer.

We are so sad to announce that Stuck in the Middle has been cancelled after three seasons on Disney Channel.

Deadline reports that the network has decided to pass on a possible fourth season of the hit series, which starred Jenna Ortega, Isaak Presley, Kayla Maisonet, Nicolas Bechtel, Malachi Barton, Ariana Greenblatt, Ronni Hawk, Cerina Vincent and Joe Nieves.

The series centered on Harley, the middle, inventor child of the family, so feels the need to come up with creative ways to stand out in her family’s crowded home.

The rest of the final season of Stuck In the Middle will begin airing this summer.

TELL JJJ: What do you think about Stuck in the Middle being over?

There’s a cute new kid on the block on tonight’s all-new episode of Stuck in the Middle — and JJJ‘s got the exclusive details!

Joshua Bassett has joined the Disney Channel show in a recurring role as Aiden, one of Harley’s new friends and neighbor Bethany’s nephew.

In the episode, called “Stuck with a Diaz Down”, with Rachel gone, there’s a void in the Diaz house that each sibling struggles to fill. To cap it all off, Bethany’s teenage nephew Aidan moves in next door and creates a whole new dynamic…especially for Harley.

“Everyone in the cast of Stuck in the Middle has been so welcoming and amazing to work with.,” Joshua tells JJJ. “I am so excited to get to share the character of Aidan with all the fans of the show!”

Tune into Stuck in the Middle, airing TONIGHT @ 8:30PM ET/PT on Disney Channel.

If you didn’t watch the most recent episode of Disney Channel’s Stuck in the Middle — LOOK AWAY!

If you did, then you know that Ronni Hawk, who plays eldest child Rachel, has left the series.

After not appearing in the Stuck in Christmas movie, Ronni has confirmed that she’s left the show and is now working on a new Netflix series called On My Block.

Ronni‘s new show is described as a coming-of-age comedy about four bright and street-savvy friends navigating their way through the triumph, pain and the newness of high-school set in the rough inner city.

On Stuck in the Middle, Ronni‘s Rachel was written out as she receives an educational opportunity in Paris that she just can’t pass up.

Jenna Ortega 100%, absolutely relates to her Stuck in the Middle character Harley in the brand new Stuck at Christmas movie.

Not only do we see Harley get the middle seat in the show normally, but she’s back in that one seat for Christmas too — and what’s even funnier though is that this happens in her real family!

“I have done this same thing,” Jenna told us ahead of the premiere. “[My family and I] traveled to Utah for Christmas to visit family one year and it was a 12 hour car ride.”

“My booty started to hurt sitting in the car, we were pushing each other off,” she explains of the seating arrangement hierarchy in big families. “Like Harley, I’m always stuck in that middle seat and all my real siblings are leaning on me to fall asleep.”

“They’ll lay their heads on my shoulders and it’s so uncomfortable and we’re always pushing each other.”

Jenna continues, “We’ll start off normal and it’s all very calm and hanging out, but then by the end, we’re all arguing with each other, you’re in my seat, stop touching me…I can totally relate to Harley and the Diaz family.

When we told her to call dibs on one of the other seats, Jenna told us it does not work that way: “They never let me sit anywhere else! It’s the because I’m the smallest in the family and that middle seat is the smallest too. It’s not fair at all.”

Don’t forget that Stuck at Christmas also leads into season three of Stuck in the Middle!

“I love that we do that because it just gets everyone excited for the new season,” Jenna shared with us.

Stuck in the Middle is actually one of the only series on Disney Channel that does that.

Jenna adds, “It’s a prep for the new season. We shoot the movies first and then go into the episodes, and it’s nice to have that extra long first episode and the other ones that we film afterwards, are more chaotic too shoot, so having that movie lead in is really nice.”

Stuck at Christmas premieres TONIGHT, December 8th @ 8PM ET/PT on Disney Channel.
