Hannah Montana fans have waited two months for a new episode to air and finally got their wish last night. In the last episode “Bye Bye Ball”, which aired back in January, Miley had to find a way to replace Jackson’s prized possession. Joey Fatone guest starred on the episode at Joey Vitone, Jackson’s favorite baseball player. Last night, as usual, Miley found herself knee deep in problems but also found a way to resolve it all in about 23 minutes.
In the episode, "(We’re So Sorry) Uncle Earl", Hannah’s uncle drops into town but she’s less than thrilled to have him there. He’s loud, unpredictable and has decided that he wants to be a rock star. What better way to learn than to follow Miley as she prepares for her next gig as Hannah Montana? The timing couldn’t be worse as a popular music critic is attending her next show. Miley ultimately decided that she shouldn’t be ashamed of her family and let her uncle play in her show. It all worked out and the music critic gave her a glowing review.
Jason Earles does an impression of legendary rocker Ozzy Osbourne in the episode and talked about the experience with Netscape’s Hollywood Exclusive column. "With Ozzy, you don't understand a single word that he says," notes Earles. "So, I listened to a bunch of Ozzy stuff on Youtube, then I tried to make it as shaky and incomprehensible as possible."
Uncle Earl was played by David Koechner. He has appeared in the films
Larry The Cable Guy: Health Inspector,
Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby,
Unaccompanied Minors, most recently,
Drillbit Taylor. Disney fans are familiar with Gilbert Gottfried’s unusual voice. He was the voice of Iago in
Aladdin. He has also lent his voice to
Cyberchase and
The Fairly Oddparents.
