Zoe, Duncan, Jack & Jane

This is possibly one of the more overrated shows on the WB ever made. Take four people all of whom look in their late twenties and make them pretend to be High Schoolers and you end up with a far-fetched piece of crap.

They pretend to be "Friends" hanging out in a coffeehouse, and tredge through High school with completely annoying characters and terrible plotlines.

Zoe played by the likable and often charming Selma Blair is a cardboard cutout as the lead, and the rest of the characters are horrible... with one exception.

Micheal Rosenbaum is so-o-o-o-o funny in this show and could have been the only hope if the show would have changed direction. His comic delivery is on key and he has impeccable timing. He truly has a knack for comedy.

The show was later retooled into just "Zoe" with the same characters, except they all worked in a restaurant, but that was just as awful and it was thankfully cancelled.

Blair later redeemed herself making some good movies, and Rosenbaum redeemed himself taking a powerful turn as the young Lex Luthor in "Smallville" often stealing the scenes from other cast members with his great acting.

I used to watch this show every day on trouble TV when i first started showing.

It was my favourite show and i cant believe how quickly it got taken off air, it didn't even run on any other channel but trouble as far as i remember.

Zoe (selma blair) really got her acting career off to a good start with z,d,j+j, as did jack (micheal rosenbaum)

This show had some fantastic writers behind it and every episode had me doubled over in stitches. It was a real teen comedy but not corny like the usual shows than ran for years.

A real downside to this show is that it never even got released on DVD or VHS which is a real shame, i don't think it will be repeated again either as its just one of those things that really gets wasted.

such a shame.

I think that Zoe, Duncan, Jack and Jane was hysterical. The comedic of the actors was brilliant and the character development never lagged. The situations may have occasionally seemed unrealistic, but 1)they were different from many other shows that use the same old gags over and over, and 2) who wants to watch real life? Real life is monotonous and mundane 99.9% of the time. Even reality shows are not reality. Finally, I loved the fact that not everything in this show was about sex! there are so many shows where the only means of drawing an audience is but using nothing but blatant, tasteless innuendos. Zoe, Duncan, Jack, and Jane does use the gags but approaches it from a much more innocent direction...something that this world needs much more of.

Zoe, Duncan, Jack and Jane was a show with a lot of potential. Which is why i was surprised when it only ran for a year. Jane (Azura Skye) and Jack (Michael Rosenbaum) were awesome characters played by fantastic actors and they could have taken the show to new heights. Although when the show started, it tried to be a teenage version of Friends and Will and Grace, it picked up later when the title was changed and Zoe (Selma Blair) and the gang started working. Sadly, the show was destined for only 13 episodes and was taken off air in response to the low ratings. I, for one thought the show had real potential and it could have improved if only the public had given it a chance.

Some people might not like the wacky humor that is the best part of "Zoe, Duncan, Jack, and Jane," but I, for one, have not seen a show this clever and side-splittingly funny in a long time. I introduced it to my brother, uncle, and two cousins this summer, and they fell in love with it as well. They couldn't get enough of it, and were disappointed that there were only 13 episodes! Zoe (Selma Blair) is quirky and lovable, Jane (Azura Skye) is smart and funny, Jack (Michael Rosenbaum) is the money-loving adorable twin of Jane, and Duncan (David Moscow) is just a cute dimwit that you can't help loving. My favorite character, though, would have to be Breeny (Sara Rue--who's gone on to do the WB's "Popular".) The coolest thing about this show is that although the actors may not be teenagers (except for Azura Skye), they sure can act! These characters are just the best on TV and so is this show.
