Those kid cable network stars just can't stay away from their kid cable networks. Except for the ones who go off and do not-so-kid friendly fare, have you seen the leaked peek at Hilary Duff's new film role. Or the ones who do kid-friendly stuff, like making new ones *cough*Jamie Lynn Spears*cough*. Well, maybe we can still get Zoey 1+1=3. There's certainly plenty of young mothers out there looking for a positive role model, and the elder Spears isn't the best candidate so maybe Jamie Lynn will do better.

But I digress. These are nice boys. More than a year after their popular series ended, Drake Bell and Josh Peck will reunite for a Drake & Josh Christmas movie. The plot revolves around the duo working as mall Santa and helper and promising a foster care girl the "best Christmas ever." The film begins airing this July which means it's going to be really freaking hot in the beard and Santa gear. I wonder if Miranda Cosgrove will sneak away from iCarly and appear in it. I'm still waiting for that reunion special of You Can't Do That on Television! I hear Alanis Morissette isn't doing much these days, and everyone knows slime never goes bad, or stops being funny.

The Jonas Brothers ... Jamie-Lynn Spears ... Miley Cyrus ... find out where they rank on our list.

Once upon a time, it was possible for a TV child star to get by on an impish smile and cute catchphrase.

Today's crop of kiddie performers don't have it so easy; they need to be double or triple threats who not only head up their own shows and/or TV movies, but sing, dance, star on the big screen, sell out concerts and launch clothing lines (despite some occasional personal missteps).

Here we count down the 20 hottest faves of the teen and tween pack.

One of the stars of Drake and Josh, Drake Bell, was seriously injured in a car crash on Thursday evening. He and a passenger were waiting in a left-turn lane when a car hit them head-on. Bell's injuries are serious but not life-threatening... They include a fractured neck, a broken jaw, facial lacerations, and knocked-out teeth. He will reportedly undergo plastic and dental surgery soon. Bell was still in the process of shooting the fourth season of Drake and Josh.

It's absolutely terrifying to hear about someone getting so badly hurt in an accident when they weren't being reckless. In case you don't know who he is (because you aren't subjected daily to pre-teen programming like I am), Drake and Josh is a really popular show on Nickelodeon (not to mention one of the slightly-watchable ones)... Hopefully, he recovers and can return to work. I know a lot of fans are devastated.
