Production

The show was created by Danny Kallis and Jim Geoghan. The production of the first season, which contained 26 episodes, began in fall 2004. The series premiered on March 18, 2005 and held the record of the highest-rated Disney Channel premiere (but was later beaten out by Hannah Montana in 2006 and Cory in the House in 2007).

The series was so popular that Disney Channel ordered 39 episodes for a second season, which brought the total to 65, the usual limit of episodes Disney normally allows their series to go. During the second season, The Suite Life took part in a tri-episode crossover with fellow Disney Channel Original Series Hannah Montana and That's So Raven. The crossover, entitled That's So Suite Life of Hannah Montana aired on July 28, 2006.

The show is currently broadcasting its third and final season, which began on June 23, 2007. The episodes of the third season fit more specific air date order than the previous seasons. Ashley Tisdale is absent in much of the season due to her commitment to High School Musical: The Concert and filming High School Musical 2. For this reason, All That alumnus Giovonnie Samuels (as Nia Moseby, Mr. Moseby's niece) was introduced as a recurring guest star to fill her place.[citation needed] Tisdale returned as Maddie in the episode "Team Tipton" after a long period of absences and short cameos. Brenda Song also missed a few episodes of the third season due to her filming of College Road Trip.

In the December 2007 issue of Tiger Beat, it is mentioned that The Suite Life is not making any more episodes, however, there are some episodes that haven't aired yet. This was also featured in the October 2007 issue of Disney Adventures where it showed pictures from an episode guest starring The Cheetah Girls and Chris Brown. The third season has in total 23 episodes [1]. The Suite Life on Deck, a spin-off of this show, is already in production with Dylan and Cole Sprouse, Brenda Song and Phill Lewis. The third season premiered on Disney Channel India on December 24, 2007 along with the premiering of Hannah Montana's second season.

Settings

Tipton Hotel The Tipton Hotel is where Zack, Cody, Carey, and London all live, and where the majority of the other characters in the series work. It is the main setting for the series, particularly the basement, the Tipton's 5-star restaurant, the lobby, the game room, the Martins' suite on the 23rd floor, and London Tipton's penthouse.

Buckner Middle School During the second season, the series has started using the younger characters' schools as locations. Zack and Cody attend Buckner Middle School and their school team is the Badgers as revealed in the episode "Election" and "Nurse Zack".

In the scene outside of the school where a few students are walking between two buildings shows "The Mall" area that's located in Lincoln Park High School, in Chicago, IL.

Our Lady of Perpetual Sorrow Catholic School Maddie, Mary Margaret, Corrie and Leslie attend this private school during the first two seasons of the show, with London joining in Season Two. In Season Three, both London and Maddie attend the same public school as Zack and Cody.











Settings continued

Paul Revere Mini Mart

Zack and Cody work for a man named Wayne Wormser at a local mini market. The Paul Revere Mini Mart is across the street from another mini mart with a patriotic name and theme, The Betsy Ross Stop and Shop.

Camp Heaven On Earth

The summer camp where Maddie works over the summer. The only part of the camp shown is the cabin in which Maddie and the young girls stay.

Cheevers High School

Where Zack, Cody, London, Maddie, and Nia attend along with other students including Bob, Mark and Barbara. This setting was used in "Lip Synchin' in the Rain", "First Day of High School", and "Orchestra".

Other places in Boston

Scenes also take place in several other places in Boston, including Fenway Park, a movie theater, Maddie's home, the local shopping mall, a bowling alley, a miniature golf course, Kurt Martin's house (seen in "A Tale of Two Houses"), Mr. Mosbey's house (seen in "The Hotel Inspector" and "Ask Zack"), the Goose Lodge, (seen in 'Not So Suite Sixteen'), and Liberty Park, the park across the street from the Tipton Hotel. In "The Arwin That Came To Dinner", Arwin's house is shown, first boring, then when Zack and Cody pitch in, pimped out.

Hollywood

The two-part episode called "The Suite Life Goes Hollywood" is filmed in Hollywood which is where all of the movie sets are and also is where the producers shoot the episode for the TV Commercial. The movie set they film this episode in is the real set they film the actual episodes in just zoomed out more so you can see the roof and other parts of the set which they don't show on screen.
