From 2005 until 2008, they starred in the [[Disney Channel]] sitcom ''[[The Suite Life of Zack & Cody]]''.

The majority of the Sprouses' franchise ended in 2008, except for their clothing line. ''The Suite Life of Zack & Cody'' was retooled in 2008 as ''[[The Suite Life on Deck]]'', in which the brothers reprised their roles as Zack and Cody.
