Bridgit Mendler's hard work is paying off. After guest spots on Disney Channel shows like JONAS and Wizards of Waverly Place, the 17-year-old actress has finally landed her own show, Good Luck Charlie. Bridgit plays Teddy Duncan, and she's definitely bringing a bit of herself to the role.
I am," she said. "I feel like I get some me out of Teddy when I'm having a nerdy moment especially because I'm kind of a nerd myself."
When her parents have a new baby, Teddy and her brother, played by Jason Dolley, decide to make a video diary for the baby (nicknamed Charlie) for her to watch when she's older. So what's it like shooting her own Disney com? In a word, "fun."
"We have dress up days, usually on Tuesdays," she said. "One day we wore capes - we had 'Cape day.' That was fun, we ran down the halls in our capes."
