Self-confidence, uncertainty about relationships with the opposite sex, and integrity are issues that confront virtually every preteen. Identical twins Zack (Dylan Sprouse) and Cody (Cole Sprouse) prove just how different they are from one another as they struggle with all three challenges in Taking Over the Tipton. When teen idol Jesse McCartney checks in to the Tipton Hotel in "Rock Star in the House," London (Brenda Song) and Maddie (Ashley Tisdale) appear willing go to any length to make contact with the famous singer while Zack's entrepreneurial instincts lead him to ransack McCartney's room for saleable memorabilia and an oblivious Cody focuses on completing his science project in Arwin's (Brian Stepanek) workshop. Eventually, both boys are caught being dishonest and the experience teaches each of them an important lesson about integrity and self-respect. Zack suddenly finds himself confused and at odds with a good friend and basketball teammate when he begins to see her for the girl she really is in "Kisses and Basketball" and "French 101" focuses on Maddie's attempt to cure London's shopping obsession and Cody's lack of self-confidence. Nowhere are Zack's and Cody's differences more apparent than in the state of their shared bedroom, and the conflict between Zack's propensity for chaos and Cody's obsessive cleanliness culminates in a dispute that sends Cody packing for a space of his own in "Odd Couple." A never-before-seen bonus episode combines Feng Shui and Shakespeare for a novel perspective on luck and misguided love and the Backstage Disney featurette interviews Cole and Dylan Spruce and includes a preview of Jesse McCartney's "Right Where You Want Me." (Ages 7 to 13) --Tami Horiuchi

Product Description
Check into Boston's totally cool Tipton Hotel, where Zack and Cody -- the hottest twins on television -- are living the "Suite Life"! Join them for mischief, mayhem, and all sorts of outrageous adventures in four hilarious episodes from their hit Disney Channel original series -- now on DVD for the first time ever! Plus, superstar guests Jesse McCartney and Zac Efron (HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL) drop by for a visit! When their mom gets a job as a singer in the hotel lounge, Zack and Cody move in -- and take over! It's twice the adventure and two times the fun as Cody builds a happenin' bachelor pad, Zack gets an unexpected pass from his basketball-playing gal pal, and both guys do their best to charm everyone who passes through the luxurious lobby. And when their "suite" neighbors Maddie and London create their own style of hilarious hijinks, there's definitely trouble at the Tipton!

4.0 out of 5 stars This is definitaly THE "SUITE" LIFE!, July 30, 2006

By	JK (Cincinnati, OH USA) - See all my reviews

INTRO
I'm a 15-year-old boy, and I have to tell you that a lot of Disney shows aren't as good as they used to be. I loved LIZZIE MCGUIRE and EVEN STEVENS. My number one fav was THE JERSEY! Now, the only 2 shows I can stand on Disney are THAT'S SO RAVEN and THE SUITE LIFE OF ZACK AND CODY.

The only reason I actually watched this show was because I was obsessed with the film BIG DADDY (1999) starring Adam Sandler. And if you didn't know, young Julian (the boy Sandler adopts) is played by the Sprouse twins (Zack and Cody). Anyway, my younger brother was watching THE SUITE LIFE, and I saw the credits say "Dylan Sprouse - Cole Sprouse". So I decided to check it out.

REVIEW
I am ADDICTED now! The show is so funny and original it's impossible to not like it! You may have noticed that most Disney shows are extremely similar. In both LIZZIE MCGUIRE and THATS SO RAVEN, the main character has an annoying brother, and two friends (one boy and one girl). THE SUITE LIFE OF ZACK AND CODY isn't like that. Most of the situations on the show are original and funny.

One of my favorite characters is London Tipton, the obvious spoof on Paris Hilton. London's father owns the Tipton hotel chain, and London isn't very bright, and is spoiled rotten! I think they captured Paris pretty well!

THE DVD
Ok, now about the DVD. This is the only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5. These episodes are great, but there are other ones that I wish I had on DVD! I was however excited to see the "never before seen episode" on the DVD. However, DO NOT BUY THE DVD FOR THAT. Because in August, this episode will be aired on Disney. Just get your TiVo's ready instead of buying the DVD!

OVERALL
THE SUITE LIFE is an origial show on DISNEY CHANNEL, and does not disappoint. Even though the episode selection could be better, the show is still full of laughs and excitement! Enjoy these episodes, and if you decide not to buy, don't forget to watch THE SUITE LIFE OF ZACK AND CODY on Disney Channel at 6;30 (5:30 central)!

Thanks for reading my review!

4.0 out of 5 stars Suite Life with Few Parental Worries, November 30, 2006

By	Mark Ebert (Lancaster OH) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

"Suite Life of Zack and Cody" is a sitcom like the ones I grew up on ("Diff'rent Strokes", "The Facts of Life", "Growing Pains"). However, I would say that--99% of the time--it is even more kid-friendly than those shows (when it comes to young children).

Each episode features a moral lesson; something that is severely lacking in today's television entertainment. The characters are enjoyable and mix well with each other. Unlike many shows of the same genre both adults and children take their turn at wearing egg on their face: proof that we all make mistakes and that "growing up" doesn't stop with physical height.

I hope that Disney will eventually issue a season of this series on DVD and I wish ABC (owned by Disney) would begin showing entertainment like this during the eight o'clock hour (once known as "The Family Hour").
