LOS ANGELES - Fresh off the success of their hit Disney Channel movie, “Camp Rock,” and their chart-busting third studio album, “A Little Bit Longer,” The Jonas Brothers are poised to conquer yet another part of Hollywood — TV shows.

The Disney siblings will begin filming a new Disney Channel series in mid-September, Joe Jonas told ELLEgirl magazine.

The as-yet untitled Jonas Brothers series was originally going to be about a boy band living a double life as spies, according to People. But during a recent chat with Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS-FM radio show, “On Air With Ryan Seacrest,” the brothers said their new series would have a HBO’s “Flight of the Conchords” feel to it.

“It’s going to be a funny show, and it’s going to be a great cast,” Joe said. “The writers are working on it as we speak, so we should be seeing scripts any day. I’m really excited.”
