Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist

{Initial Impression} I think I'm really going to enjoy this series. It is one of the new mid-season replacements, with a quirky fantasy premise that musical theatre people are going to love. The cast is a great mix of established talent (Mary Steenburgen, Lauren Graham) and great young talent. Jane Levy shines and perfectly creates a fully articulate, emotionally full, Zoey. Although this is on the NBC lineup, it is filmed in Canada🇨🇦, therefore, is filled with Canadian support talent🇨🇦. The music is great, performances are great and the premise is fresh and hopeful. Based on the first episode, I rate this series, you guessed it, an 8, (great) out of 10. {Fantasy Drama}

As someone who is into musicals and musical shows and movies, I was very excited for the debut of Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist. And from watching the pilot, I think this show has very high potential. Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist takes your favorite songs such as "Help!" by The Beatles, "All By Myself" by Celine Dion and many more and it brings this show to new heights in a fun, musical adventure with a story that is heartwarming with the connection of family with the power of music. In all, Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist is a show that is fun, unique, heartwarming and will make you want to sing along with the cast when they sing the songs! I see high potential for this show and I can not wait to see what the future holds.

Laughed out loud 3 times in the first ten minutes. Then they tug heavily on your heart strings more than one in the next 50 minutes. Laughed several more times.

Good character development for a pilot episode. Looking forward to February 16 for the rest of the season.

Only a few minutes in but reminds me of Eli Stone which I loved. Even started out with a Wham tune so I'm guessing it's not a coincidence?

I just watched the premiere episode on demand and I loved it so much, I want more right away. It's fresh and funny, but has touching moments of sorrow and heartbreak to keep it grounded in reality. I love Skyler Astin from Pitch Perfect, which is why I was drawn to this series, and I also loved Glee, so was very excited. The show did not disappoint. Cannot wait until the next episode.
