History Fridge / TheSuiteLifeofZackandCody

* I wondered how some of the staff were so agile in "Commercial Breaks" (doing somersaults etc). Then it hit me... they were used to carrying heavy bags and such - of course they were athletic!
* In "Poor Little Rich Girl", towards the ending, London recites wedding vows as an analogy of Maddie's loyal friendship. It may be PlayedForLaughs, but it becomes FridgeBrilliance (and HarsherInHindsight) when you learn that she's gone through a lot of step-mothers. After attending all their weddings, she's probably [[HiddenDepths memorized the wedding vows]] by now.
* At first, one wonders why London's private submarine would have torpedo tubes. When one considers that the controls are all in Russian, and the former Soviet republics are notorious for selling off surplus military hardware, one realizes it's most likely an old Soviet diesel sub.
* Why did Bailey get into Yale when Cody didn't? She's from a low income family which gives a better story of overcoming adversity.

** Alternatively, a much more sound reason that is common in real life may be due to the fact that Cody was still a delinquent, and that this would have to be recorded somewhere. He may have the brains, but Yale was likely turned off by his misadventures with his brother over the years, deconstructing the show in a way.
* At first, London's ditzy comment about [[ItMakesSenseInContext being a missing person]] in one episode seems in character. But, at the episode's ending, we learn that she ''is'' the missing person, Richard Gold.

* If Maddie's parents hate one another so much, why can't they get a divorce? Considering that they're Catholic (Maddie's OverlyLongName includes a large number of Catholic saints and she goes to a Catholic school) it's likely they can't because Catholicism frowns heavily on divorce.

* There's a reason the twins (particularly Cody) are tired of their mother's story about the past boyfriends she joined a band with. Her tendency for on-and-off relationships could be what lead to her divorcing their dad. The last thing they want to hear is another story of the very thing that drove their fun (if irresponsible) father out of the picture.
* ''Series/TheSuiteLifeOnDeck'': in the '[[FairytaleEpisode fairytales]]' episode, where each of the Acts is a classic fairy tale, retold with the characters from the show in the places of the characters in the fairy tale. Pretty standard stuff for a Creator/{{Disney}} SitCom. Each of the stories uses the FramingDevice of it being [[AllJustADream one of the character's dream]]. Also standard. The [[FridgeLogic strange part]]? [[AlphaBitch London's]] dream, which is a retelling of "Literature/SnowWhite", has London herself as the evil queen, with Bailey as Snow. It ends with the Queen eating her own poison apple and collapsing in the woods. So, London, a.k.a. vapid personified, has a dream in which she is the villain, and the story ends with her dying alone? Um, wow. Could this possibly mean that she knows how shallow she really is -- as vain as an Evil Queen who would murder someone for being prettier than she is -- and possibly even resents that part of her personality so much that her ''death'' is literally referred to in her own dream as being a HappyEnding? In other words, London, [[HiddenDepths at some subconscious level]], [[DrivenToSuicide hates herself and wants to die]]? Probably even without consciously realizing it? Talk about dark for Disney... true, it ''might'' have been entirely unintentional on the part of the writers, but it brings up certain questions, that's for sure.

** This is a mix of FridgeBrilliance and FridgeHorror: In the fashion show episode, London started developing a distorted body image, starving herself and overexercising. ''People with eating disorders tend to have suicidal thoughts.''

* In the international dateline episode in the sequel series, a GroundhogDayLoop occurs and Cody keeps on living the same day over and over with no one else the wiser. Though we the audience only see about 4 or 5 of these moments before he breaks the loop when he talks about how he initially thought what breaking the loop would entail, which is getting Bailey to kiss him at the dance, Zack responds by pointing out that he isn't a good dancer, and when Cody says he took a class, Zack says it would take more than one class, which Cody accepts and says he would take 50 classes in order to break the loop and by the time it gets to when they were about to kiss but then the loop occurs he is a good dancer. How many times did Cody have to relive the same day but we just didn't see? Also I wonder if anyone else in the world was knowledgeable of the loop and was wondering if they could break it or not and when they couldn't had to live through the same day over and over.
** On that point in {{Series/Wizards of Waverly Place}}, Alex turns back times 18 times so that Justin can have his first kiss and the spell is explained as being the source of déja vu. It's entirely possible that (considering each one is explicitly set in the same continuity of the other) that might have led to Cody's loop.

* In ''Suite Life Of..'' there is an episode where we meet Brandi, London's fifth stepmother and the eight wife of [[SerialSpouse Mr. Tipton]]. Their relationship is rocky at first due to London having been burned by a series of stepmothers who apparently only married Mr. Tipton for his money and never cared for London, but ultimately London comes to see that Brandi does care about her. This episode is the first and ''only'' time Brandi is ever seen. She never appears or is mentioned again and come ''Suite Life On Deck'' Mr. Tipton has apparently divorced her and has married yet again. Meaning that London lost the only mother figure in her life who actually cared about her. Worse, if you consider that Mr. Tipton was revealed to have been a CorruptCorporateExecutive, it is likely this is what drove Brandi (and probably some of the other wives) away. [[FreudianExcuse Is it any wonder London ended up]] [[RichBitch the way she is?]]

* ''Maddie on Deck'': Apparently child marriage is legal and socially accepted in Liechtenstamp.

* Because of crossovers, vampires exist in ''Series/TheSuiteLifeOfZackAndCody'', ''Suite Life On Deck'', ''Series/ThatsSoRaven'', ''Series/HannahMontana'', ''Series/WizardsOfWaverlyPlace'', ''Series/CoryInTheHouse'', and ''Series/{{Jessie}}''.

* Considering Mr. Moseby's race, and how Ilsa seems to have it out for him from the very moment she steps into the hotel in her debut episode, is she really just being overly strict, or is she actually racist and nitpicking at him because she doesn't see him as worthy of running a high-class hotel?

* London's flanderization from slightly stupid to too dumb to live can be explained in the episode ''London's Apprentice''. London is mentioned to have once worn a solid golid bikini. This bikini sank and we are given the following exchange it can be taken by this exchange that London stopped breathing while wearing this bikini causing oxygen to be cut off from the brain. After 4 minutes or so this could lead to brain damage which could explain her flanderization into a complete ditz from a slightly stupid girl in the original series.
--->'''Moseby:''' Well, who was the first to wear a solid gold bikini?\\
'''London:''' Me. I sank like a rock, but I met lots of cute lifeguards... and doctors, [[NearDeathExperience and briefly... Elvis]].
*** Except the episode "Smarticle Particles" in ''The Suite Life On Deck'' reveals that she was making herself more stupid due to her growing self doubt and self image issues. When Bailey gives her what she thinks is a chemical to increase brain power she becomes a genius. When they tell her, she becomes a ditz again. Bailey concludes it's her confidence and self image to blame.

* It can be taken as either Ilsa being an extreme perfectionist and downright mean that her EstablishingCharacterMoment is making several petty criticisms of Moseby...then again since Moseby is black it might also be her being racist.
** Well, she does have a dog named Blitzkrieg... It does seem edgy for a German to choose that particular name for her little companion. I'd say she's believing in a "master race".

* Good gravy is the movie's plot freaky when you think about it. The whole point of the experiment the villain is running is to erase people by making them into one person in two bodies. And this almost happens to Zack...
