I loved the interplay between Pim and Debbie Berwick.  KP may be
joining Suite Life, but as a different character; it would be neat if
she could continue being Debbie Berwick to be a foil to Zach/Cody/
London/Maddie/.

She also just was on "Custody" on Lifetime, playing a 13 y/o.  (KP has
a high voice, I'm not sure she'll be able to play older teens as she
comes off as very young.)


I was disappointed Phil was cancelled early; I thought it was a good
show.

However, some of the humor may have gone over the heads of the
viewers, indeed, maybe even over their parents.  Two examples:

1) Godfather re-enactment, including hiding the gun in the toilet.
Marlon Brandon satire is one thing, but a specific scene from the
movie is another; may be too vague.

2) Holding up "union" sign (satire of Norma Rae movie) during Phil's
strike over the personality test.  Indeed, the very idea of a student
strike may be alien these days compared to years ago.
