Harriet the Spy: Blog Wars is a 2010 Canadian/American television film starring Jennifer Stone[1], which premiered on March 26, 2010, on Disney Channel. It is the second film adaptation of the book, Harriet the Spy, by Louise Fitzhugh, after the 1996 Harriet the Spy film that starred Michelle Trachtenberg as Harriet. The film was produced by 9 Story Entertainment.

The film centers around Harriet, who now is a teenager. Jennifer Stone told Popstar magazine that "We're basing it off the charm of the first book. They aged Harriet up to 16, and it still deals with mean girls, except it matures that a little. It's a bit more of mean girls having to do with gossip and heartthrobs and all that. The first book was written in the 60's so we're trying to bring it up to 2010. We're putting our own spin on it."

It is the first Disney Channel film since 1997 that was not promoted as an "Original Movie" and the first released through 9 Story Entertainment and was co-produced in association with Disney Channel and Canadian pay TV channels Movie Central and The Movie Network. According to the Disney Channel website, the film is listed as a Disney Channel Original Movie.[2][3]

Plot

Young spy Harriet M. Welsh (Jennifer Stone) crosses paths with popular student, Marion Hawthorne (Vanessa Morgan), as the two girls compete to become the official blogger of their high school class. After Marion has already started blogging, Harriet is at the edge. Harriet sets her sights on a big pop star, Skander Hill (Wesley Morgan), who is in town starring in a movie, Spy Teen 2: The Sequel, that her father, Roger Welsh (Doug Murray), is producing. However, Vi Welsh (Shauna MacDonald) claims Harriet has a crush on Skander. Despite her disdain for the star of the film, Harriet starts blogging about Skander Hill and stalks him. First, she goes to stalk him by doing a little Father/Daughter visit together, but Skander has an outburst and Harriet is forced off of the set.

When Harriet goes back, she finds Skander arguing with other producers of the movie, and freaks out, and has a fit. When switching shirts, Harriet notices a birth-mark on him and takes a picture, also stealing a water bottle. It only makes the other students love him more. Marion and her friends invite Harriet over, and watch "Spy Teen". She lies and runs downstairs to talk to Skander. Unfortunately, it's really Sport! Along with that, the posse gets excited, but Marion's still suspicious.

The next time Harriet goes there, she disguises herself as a maid, and she steals a document signed by Skander, but Skander notices her, and she runs away. She shows Marion the signature, but Marion claims it's a forgery. Skander spots Harriet stalking him and follows her to Janie's house. Meanwhile, Harriet's friends decide to cut off their friendship with Harriet because she is too obsessed with Skander. While leaving, she bumps into a chemical made by her Eco-Friend, and makes a loud noise and shake, which Skander deduces as someone trying to blow him up.

Back at the set, Skander accidentally starts a food fight, which Harriet tries to record, but notices her father, and does not record out of consciousness. When she follows her nanny Golly, she deduces she has a boyfriend, after a long argument, they figure out that she is leaving, bringing a major outburst throughout the family. Marion asks Harriet for real proof. Harriet goes back to the set, and is put in as an extra, and later Skander comes up to her and devotes his anger to her, while she was recording.

Soon after, she puts the rant on her blog, which Marion puts on the web. Skander quits the movie because he realizes Rodger's daughter is the spy. Harriet soon gets back with her friends, and Sport makes a basket. Harriet gives Skander a deep heartfelt apology, but Skander still quits, because he wanted her to stop her blog, but Roger would not allow. Until he realizes he get's a major role in another movie; then goes back, hugs Harriet and kisses her on the cheek; and rejoins the movie.

Harriet gets the blog, and at the end, it shows magazines showing a possible relationship between Skander and Harriet.
