This week’s all new Sydney to the Max comes with a very important message about microaggressions.
The new episode imparts invaluable lessons on the impact of identity-based microaggressions, the importance of people feeling a sense of belonging, and the power in standing up for yourself.
JJJ spoke to the cast – Ruth Righi, Ava Kolker, Jackson Dollinger, Christian J Simon and guest star Julia Garcia – about the importance of why the episode matters to the show’s young viewers.
Sydney To The Max is premiering it’s third season TONIGHT (March 19) and we have an exclusive clip right here.
The new season kicks off with the episode “Tearin’ Up My Room,” where with her dad’s permission, Sydney enlists Olive to help remodel her bedroom to fit her new “artsy Syd†8th grade persona. In the ‘90s, Max is struggling being the shortest kid in his class and tries to make himself look taller.
In the clip, Jackson Dollinger‘s Young Max, with the help of his BFF Leo, tries to make himself taller with his hair and making his own platform shoes.
Sydney To The Max season three premieres TONIGHT (March 19) at 8:25pm ET/PT on Disney Channel and DisneyNOW. You can also catch up or re-watch seasons one and two on Disney+!
In celebration of tonight’s premiere episode, JJJ spoke to the cast – Ruth Righi, Ava Kolker, Jackson and Christian J Simon – about what they’ve done to fit in with others and what they’re most excited for fans to see in season three. Check it out below!

Christian J Simon and Malachi Barton will be starring in the upcoming Disney Channel remake of Under Wraps!
The Sydney To The Max and the Stuck In The Middle actors will be joined by Sophia Hammons, and Disney Fam Jam‘s Phil Wright.
Under Wraps was the first ever Disney Channel Original Movie, and the new remake will be a contemporary comedic take on the 1997 classic.
Here’s a synsopsis: The story unfolds when Gilbert (Simon), Marshall (Barton) and Amy (Hammons) happen upon and awaken a mummy, which they affectionately name Harold (Wright), and must rush to return him to his resting place before midnight on Halloween.
Along the way, the team narrowly escapes a nefarious group of criminals intent on selling the mummy to the highest bidder. When Harold is inevitably captured, Marshall, Gilbert and Amy must band together to stand up to the criminals, face their fears and rescue their new—but rather “ancient”—friend.
The upcoming remake also stars Melanie Brook (Mrs. Fletcher) as Buzzy, Brent Stait (Snowpiercer) as Mr. Kubot, Jordana Largy (Once Upon a Time in Wonderland) as Diane and Jaime M. Callica (Ruthless) as Ted.
Under Wraps is set to begin production this month in Vancouver, and premiere on Disney Channel in 2021.

To celebrate this new birthday-themed episode, we spoke to the young stars of the show – Ruth Righi, Ava Kolker, Jackson Dollinger and Christian J. Simon – and asked them about their favorite birthday memories, and what their dream party would be like.
“My dream birthday party would be a traveling birthday where I would get to see a new part of the world with my family and friends,” Ruth told JJJ. “I would spend the time exploring and taking in whichever place I ended up and celebrate with as many desserts as you can think of.”
Sydney to the Max airs TOMORROW night (August 21) at 8pm ET/PT on Disney Channel!
