"The Suite Life on Deck"- one of the best Disney sitcoms IMHO - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Just as the title says- "The Suite Life on Deck" is one of the best Disney sitcoms in my humble opinion. I'm so glad the Disney Channel still has reruns running (albeit at odd hours of the night). I actually like this one better than some of the other current shows they're running (though I do like other current Disney Channel sitcoms too.)
The funny things is- though I have watched "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody" some and I like that okay- I honestly like this follow-up series even better. Maybe it's just the whole thing of being on a cruise ship and sailing around the world that I find interesting. But the characters are all funny and the show is just fun. I think there are definitely some "Saved By the Bell" inspirations to some degree- I suppose mainly with one of the main characters actually named Zack Martin- which is pretty close to Zack Morris.

Both Zacks can definitely go into the schemer/scammer/prankster, etc. hall of fame- right alongside Parker Lewis, Mike Seaver and Dennis Blunden (and others I'm sure.)

My kids and I really enjoyed this series also. It was really funny and well done. London was hilarious.

Cool- glad to see someone else enjoys this show too. London had a great balance of being incredibly ditzy and dumb- (not to mention obviously conceited) but still managed to be caring and smart in other ways at times too.
