"Jumping The Shark" Suite Life of Zack and Cody

        The show, Suite Life of Zack and Cody was a fun, crazy, funny place of entertainment in my childhood. Whenever I turned on Disneychannel and saw that it was on, I was filled with joy; partly because i related to it just like i related to the show, "Sister, Sister". It was about a pair of twin boys who were always getting into crazy situations in and around their home, The Tipton Hotel. They were not only mischievious, but clever in the ways they talked and involved others into their awesome plans. After years of the hotel setting, they decided to change the atmosphere to a cruise school. This was the "Jump the Shark" moment.

        The show was simply great before they changed the entire setting of the boys' home! Not only that, but they also deleted and added characters. Before they did this, I was familiar and very happy with all of the cast members. They each contributed to the story line in their own funny way. Also, I was so used to the Tipton Hotel. It was their home and they had so many crazy memories there; so many adventures! To change all of that took away a lot of the magic that made you imagine what it would be like to live as wild and fun as Zack and Cody did.

        After, the show was thrown off balance. We didn't get to see many of the vital, beloved characters anymore, including Maddy, Estebon, Bob, Arwin, Muriel etc. Those characters were half the show, and they all suddenly vanished! Now, the show is called, "Suite Life on Deck", and cannot compare to the way it was before. All of the new characters such as Baily and Ms. Tutweiller, over act and change the whole vibe from its' original spunk to irritating fakeness. Bring back the original "Suite Life".

DANDELION, OR JULIUS CAESAR ?

When you think of a dandelion, you probably think of all the magical wishes that can be asked of it. In my case, I thought of the mighty Julius Caesar! In the play, Caesar is growing and growing, as do dandelions. He is making his way to the top, until his tragic assassination occurs. While a dandelion grows, it will either grow tall and strong or slowly be taken apart by the wind. I believe that both Cassius and Brutus are this so-called "wind". Caesar is almost at the point of gaining his crown, when the unthinkable happens. He is murdered by his own friends and comrades! Being stabbed repeatedly, he finally topples over into the darkness of his death. Then, finally, there is no more mighty Julius Caesar; just a still, lifeless thing where emotion and power once reign. Caesar was blown away completely and helplessly, just like a dandelion in the wind.
