This is an older interview with Ashley Tisdale on the set of “The Suite Life of Zack and Cody“. She’s talking about the show being nominated for an Emmy against the hit show “Hannah Montana“. They ask her if she’s in competition with Miley Cyrus and she said no because they are like sisters. Their families are really close and live in the same neighborhood.

I wonder if they hang out as much these days?

On Sunday afternoon, The Suite Life of Zack and Cody stars Dylan and Cole Sprouse, attended Camp Ronald McDonald for Good Times 2nd Annual Celebrity Teen Fashion Show in Los Angeles.

The boys have a new spin-off series “The Suite Life on Deck” coming out. It’s about twin brothers Zack and Cody Martin and hotel heiress London Tipton enroll in a semester-at-sea program aboard a ship called the SS Tipton. So far, we know that Dylan and Cole Sprouse, Brenda Song and Phill Lewis (Mr. Moseby) will be returning as their characters.

Check out the pictures below of the boys. They seem to be creating an arrival picture tradition.

“The Suite Life of Zack and Cody” is coming to an end and to lead into their new spin-off series “The Suite Life on Deck”, they have filmed a new episode called “SS Tipton“.

I don’t have an air date for the US yet, but I do have an episode description and I believe some video clips of the episode. Here’s the description:

Zack and Cody surprise Carey with a much needed cruise vacation on the SS Tipton. The boys barter for the trip by promising Carey will sing for their passage. When Carey refuses to sing they get down-graded accommodations. Maddie convinces London to turn her “Yay me” show into a 24 hour telethon to raise money for charity…a blizzard keeps their guests from showing up and the girls and Moseby must fill in!

Part 1 “SS Tipton”

Part 2 and 3 below the cut.

Brenda Song did an interview with Mid Week and she talked about “The Suite Life of Zack and Cody” spin-off series “The Suite Life on Deck“. Production for the series began in March.

So far, we know that “The Suite Life on Deck” takes place on a boat. We also know that some of the returning characters include Mr. Mosbey, Zack, Cody and London Tipton. Ashley Tisdale’s character, Maddie, won’t be a regular on the show, but it has been said that she will make a few guest appearances.

From what Brenda said, other characters will be revealed on the show:

“We’ll be traveling different places. It opens a lot of new doors for a lot of new characters and a lot of new settings. It’ll be really, really fun. I’m really excited. Some characters are going to be (in the new show), but we are leaving some characters behind. But they will guest star on the show and play recurring roles.”

They also had a surprise guest on the set and Brenda was quite excited! Who was it? Matt Damon!

“His stepdaughter came to watch the show, and I almost died when I met him. Like, I almost died. He’s not just gorgeous, but such a great person. He’s so sweet, so nice and down to earth. He was so nice and he talked to me, I was like ‘ohmygod, I love you. Will you marry me?’

How many of you will watch the spin-off series? I’m not too sure about it because The Suite Life of Zack and Cody was such a great show and extremely popular. Can Disney possibly create a spin-off that will do well? I guess we’ll find out!

“The Suite Life of Zack and Cody” is over and Dylan and Cole Sprouse spill to Popstar! what it was like on set the last day of filming.

“Everybody but Cole and me was crying!”

“We were sad, but I knew that we’d see each other again. We’re just close family. We’ve been doing this for 15 years. We’ve been in this situation plenty of times. I knew it wasn’t gonna be the last time we’d see each other!” said Dylan.

Cole chimed in with “It’s not the end!”

The Suite Life of Zack and Cody may be over, but the spin-off series “The Suite Life on Deck” is just beginning. Here’s a video clip of Brenda Song giving a little tidbit of information to Hollyscoop:

Do you think “The Suite Life on Deck” is going to be a big hit or miss?

We saw one clip of Dylan and Cole Sprouse from “Idol Gives Back“, but they also did a little dance number along with a bunch of other stars. Here’s the video clip of them strutting their stuff.

Also, here is some other Dylan and Cole news for you:

“William Morris Agency has signed Dylan Sprouse and Cole Sprouse in all areas, including film, TV, endorsements and interactive games.

The twins will appear on the bigscreen in The Kings of Appletown, and are about to begin work on The Suite Life on Deck, a spinoff of their Disney Channel skein.”

I can’t wait to hear more about “The Suite Life on Deck”. No one seems to be talking about it much and it’s frustrating!
