The Suite Life on Deck (2008–2011)
6/10
"Okay" is all it deserves.

Warning: Spoilers
Well, they got Cody (Cole Sprouse) a girlfriend in Bailey (charming newcomer, Debby Ryan). Now, if only they could do something with that relationship, and stop Cody and Bailey from being completely boring characters.

Anyway, the show "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody"'s Achilles heel was that it couldn't keep the same tone that started with its terrific first season. This show, however, does keep the same tone. Unfortunately, the first season wasn't that great.

The episode "International Dateline", was a great, big, flashing sign that the writers aren't that creative. It was "Groundhog Day" on a cruise ship. It wasn't funny. It was just a great sign of disrespect to a great comedy classic.

I have a soft spot for "Groundhog Day" so I just didn't like that one. The rest of the episodes are decent, but those kids just keep growing up, and they're not that cute anymore. Their cuteness was the only thing that made me like those characters. They were never that funny, and now, since they aren't cute, they have no appeal for me.

A few of the characters from the last show are gone. Ashley Tisdale went on to try and get a career in major films, but she did return for one episode (my personal favourite of this series called "Maddie on Deck") The final word: It isn't that good, but "Maddie on Deck" is worth a watch as it is the best episode of this series.

6/10: "Okay" is all it deserves.
