How many Naruto episodes are there in all

How many Naruto episodes are there in all, and what is the difference between Naruto and Naruto:Shippuuden?

plz help?

Ok. Naruto is kinda like the first season, and Naruto Shippuuden is the second. So Naruto Shippuuden is a continuation from Naruto.

Naruto has 220 episodes, and I suggest you don't skip the fillers if anyone tells you to. I think the fillers are worth watching. Well, that's my opinion anyway.

Plus, Naruto Shippuuden is only up to episode 87 now. If you skip 20-40 episodes, you won't miss out on the plot, but... you'll find yourself having to wait for episodes to come out every week like me...

Trust me; you'll get to the latest episode faster than you think. I didn't even skip the fillers, but I just recently started Naruto and here I am... waiting for Naruto Shippuuden 88. So just don't skip any eps, okay?

In the first episode, Naruto is 12 years old, and the 2nd episode onwards he's around 13. In Naruto Shippuuden, Naruto and gang are all about 15 years old.

Basically, Naruto Shippuuden shows all the characters 2 and a half years later, back from intensive training, and now only have half a year left to save Sasuke (who went to train with the evil Orochimaru).

I'm a huge Naruto fan, and I really suggest you watch it. You can either watch it on http://www.narutowire.com (I highly recommend this!), or on http://www.tailedfox.com (which I rarely use).
