    A Great Show For Kids

    Zoom is a great show for the youngans. Im in my last year of JR high and I love to watch it!! Basically, Zoom is show that has kids send in games, recipes, science experiments, jokes and riddles of their own creation and the 7 kids who star on the show play the games, cook the recipes, do the science experi- ments, tell the jokes and solve the riddles the kids send in. Zoom has some cool kids (the really cool ones are Jared and Lyn-ese from the first season of the new Zoom), but when they they started season 2 with Kenny, Caroline, Claudio, Ray, Zoe, Alica, and Jesse the show began to crumble. The kids were so perfect like when they say good game and they shake each others hands after they ended a game I started hating the show. They should bring back the kids from season 1 and keep Ray from season 2 for season 3.

    I Find This Show Very Entertaining.

    They have such a positive message. In the opening, they say "If you like what you see, then turn off the TV and DO IT!", they're saying that you should turn off the Television and go outside and play a game you see on the show, or do one of their experiments.

    Ideas from your head to that show!

    Zoom is the best show on PBS and I heard that there was a Zoom in the1970s. It is a good show and the kids gets the ideas from their fans of the show and I would think that show is full of children that are really creative and does fun stuff and talk about a lot of things that how they do something easy and hard that kids do. It has great parts and my favorite part of the show when the children were on a video and showed their underwear and I laughed. Although, what a great show and I wuv it.

    I love this show more than anything.

    Only one word describes this show, amazing. Since the first season i've been hooked to this show. It's about 5 kids that speak their own language, teach how to cook, and show incredible videos from home viewers. I must say the wardrobe is the best i have ever seen. Bravo!

    Great kids show

    Zoom is a kids show, first of all. So what do you really expect? It's good for a children's show. The thing that makes it stand out is the fact that kids can send THEIR ideas in, and Zoom will use them. The only problem I have with Zoom is their new method of using the kids name. They only show the first name, and the first letter of their last name! They should show the WHOLE kids' name that sent it in! I think the old Zoom did this-why did they change? That's the only problem I have. I don't even mind the fact that Caroline did 4 seasons-when everyone else only did 1 or 2. I love the 2 specials about Sept. 11, 2001! Those were the highlights of Zoom. I also like any of the "behind the scenes" shows too. (I think they did 3 of these type of shows)

    • Trivia
      All the segments of Zoom were filmed out of order. So for continuity purposes, all the cast members wore the same outfit, and had their hair styled the exact same way for each episode.
