"The Suite Life Sets Sail" is the pilot episode of the Disney Channel teen sitcom The Suite Life on Deck, a sequel/spin-off to the Disney Channel sitcom The Suite Life of Zack & Cody. Debby Ryan joins the cast as Bailey Pickett, who becomes a close friend of Zack's, the girlfriend of Cody, and the roommate of London,[1] as well as Ashley Tisdale leaving the main cast due to her character Maddie Fitzpatrick having to attend college.
After an original sequel named Arwin! was not picked up by Disney Channel, the creators decided to change the concept.[2] The series premiere in the United States drew 5.7 million viewers,[3] and it became the most watched pilot in Canada and on Family Channel.[4] This also outpaced veteran series Hannah Montana and Wizards of Waverly Place with the ratings.[5]
