Cole Sprouseis a bit lost at sea when it comes to memories fromThe Suite Life of Zack & Cody.
According to the 31-year-old actor, who co-led on the Disney series with his twinDylan Sprouse, the eight years he spent playing Cody Martin are kind of a blur.
“If I’m being fully honest, when you shoot that many episodes of a show, they kind of all blend together as one big amorphous memory,” he toldEntertainment Tonight. “I don’t really remember too much of that period.”
“The specific details are kind of lost. It was a different time,” he continued of the series, which originally ran from 2005 to 2008 before being rebooted asThe Suite Life on Deckand aired until May 6, 2011.

The notion of fame wasn’t one that settled in for him, though, for awhile. “I don’t think I was conscious until about 2018,” he joked, before admitting that his time onFriendsis what opened his eyes to his remarkable career. “I walked into the studio for the first time, and there was an energy in that studio that made me go, ‘This is the biggest show in the world.'”
While talking toET, Cole also responded to his on-screen momKim Rhodes’praise for the twins, in particular Dylan for refusing to indulge body-shaming dialogue from the show’s writers.
When they filmed the scene in front of the studio audience, Dylan skipped the line, prompting an executive producer to yell at him. He replied, “‘I would not disrespect any woman that way, let alone this woman. You write something funny and I’ll say it.’ ”
“That’s my little man,” Rhodes called Dylan this past November, adding that both he and Cole were very “protective” of her on set and “defended me all the way through.”
“That’s very nice of her to say that,” he continued, admitting that much of theSuite Lifeteam remains close. “Honestly a lot of the cast and crew I still talk to fromSuite Life. I think when you spend eight years with a crew inside a soundstage, it’s kind of inevitable you guys become a little bit of a family.”
“If I ever saw any of them," she added, “I would clutch them to me and sob with love and pride.”
