The special introduces viewers to 12 \u201cStar-Charmed\u201d girls who pursue their individual wishes with determination and the help of friends. The story begins on Starland, where a major crisis is afoot, and the girls are chosen to be the first student Starlings to venture to Earth, which they call \u201cWishworld.\u201d Music is a key element of the property, and as part of its expansion to television, teen singer-songwriter and actress Skylar Stecker will remix the <em>Star Darlings<\/em> theme song, \u201cWish Now.\u201d <em>Star Darlings<\/em> first launched in North America last September as a multiplatform lifestyle experience featuring content, music and products spanning books, online, mobile, toys and apparel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe <em>Star Darlings<\/em> digital short-form content has already garnered millions of views across multiple platforms,\u201d said Andrew Sugerman, the executive VP of Disney Publishing Worldwide. \u201cWe are excited to expand the world of Starland to television and give fans across the country even more ways to join the <em>Star Darlings<\/em> on their magical adventures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am so honored to be a part of the incredible world of <em>Star Darlings<\/em>,\u201d said Stecker. \u201cI\u2019ve always wanted to be a singer. To be able to live out my dream and do what I love inspires me to encourage others to do the same. <em>Star Darlings<\/em> feels like my own personal story and I can\u2019t wait for my fans to check it out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The second <em>Star Darlings<\/em> on-air special, <em>Star Darlings Friendships<\/em>, is slated to air on Disney Channel on March 25.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOS ANGELES: Disney Channel has set January 29 for the debut of the first on-air special of its new original tween property Star Darlings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":477,"featured_media":9364,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[111,244,245],"class_list":["post-9363","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-disney-channel","tag-disney-publishing-worldwide","tag-star-darlings","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Disney Channel to Air First Star Darlings Special - TVKIDS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/disney-channel-to-bring-first-star-darlings-on-air-special-to-tv\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Disney Channel to Air First Star Darlings Special - TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"LOS ANGELES: Disney Channel has set January 29 for the debut of the first on-air special of its new original tween property Star Darlings.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/disney-channel-to-bring-first-star-darlings-on-air-special-to-tv\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2016-01-26T16:42:03+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2016-01-27T14:53:02+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2015\/09\/Star-Darlings-Disney.jpeg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/disney-channel-to-bring-first-star-darlings-on-air-special-to-tv\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/disney-channel-to-bring-first-star-darlings-on-air-special-to-tv\/\",\"name\":\"Disney Channel to Air First Star Darlings Special - TVKIDS\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2016-01-26T16:42:03+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2016-01-27T14:53:02+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/disney-channel-to-bring-first-star-darlings-on-air-special-to-tv\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/disney-channel-to-bring-first-star-darlings-on-air-special-to-tv\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/disney-channel-to-bring-first-star-darlings-on-air-special-to-tv\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Disney Channel to Air First Star Darlings Special\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\",\"name\":\"TVKIDS\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\",\"name\":\"Sara Alessi\",\"description\":\"Sara Alessi is the associate editor of World Screen.
