As i said with unfabulous, this show is aimed for teenagers, therefore it isn't exactly going to be realistic is it?! as its showing on a teenage/kids channel its meant for comedy and appeal to kids. and personally i don't mind the show and enjoy watching it. and I'm sure many kids feel the same way. when i watch it i get a few laughs from it and think most of the story lines are actually funny and good. I'm not saying the show is the best series I've ever seen but I'm not saying its the worst either, and just because it has Jamie Lynn spears in doesn't mean its automatically awful and bad acting. it seems to me nobody gives the relatives of actors shows a chance! but i think people and actually the kids who its aims at should. and if the people who give bad reviews hate it so much just don't watch the show and go and watch a documentary instead if you have no sense of humour or imagination.

As somebody who grew up on Pete and Pete, Clarissa, Salute Your Shorts, and all the other classic Nick shows, I hold a fond place in my heart for Nickelodeon. But that place has, generally, been reserved for anything before All That appeared. In my (not-so) humble opinion, that's the moment at which the network started to go downhill.

Okay, so Zoey 101 isn't exactly on a level with Pete and Pete. It's got elements of The O.C. in that it's based on upper-class lifestyles. But I'm not going to discriminate against it based on that. Any given show is going to be about a very small slice of society. This one just happens to be an upscale slice.

It's a decent show. It's shot well, so it's visually entertaining -- something I can't say for most Disney and Nick shows. And, though it's classic preteen content, it's spun in a way that stops me from vomiting, as I do watching most other crap being peddled on children these days.

That's saying something. I'm 19 and I can tolerate this show. That's near-glowing praise.

Zoey 101, i don't really like this show but sometimes i just find myself watching it! the main actress can't even act, she only got the part mainly because she Britney S.'s little sis and she can't sing either because she sang the theme tune for the Show.

Zoey 101 is kinda predictable, in like every episode Zoey ends up saving the day and coming up with some idea! its also pretty unrealistic because every one loves Zoey and shes so perfect which is so dumb but what can u expect from a stupid kids show. Also there are a lot of things that happen are just plain unrealistic! but the show has some good qualities, the characters are not the typical characters u find in every TV show, and i love Zoeys room. Well this is just my opinion!!! Foyin 13 UK

I originally watched this show because I'm a Britney Spears fan and wanted to see if Jamie Lynn Spears had any acting talent.

Zoey 101 is about a girl who is in boarding school and dealing with most issues that a young teen comes across.

I think that Zoey 101 is a cute show for the age group it's intended for. It's not offensive and the story lines are decent. While the acting isn't as great as other shows it's still pretty good for the level of acting skills the young cast has.

The show's characters were well casted and viewers will fall in love with the scenery.

Hopefully the acting will improve in future seasons.
