"Zoe, Duncan, Jack & Jane" is the high school-version of "Will & Grace" and "Dharma & Greg" combined. Don't get me wrong, it's an excellent show.. for teenagers. I doubt anyone beyond 25 will like it, assuming they aren't nostalgic-crazed.
Also, when I think of Selma Blair, I think "Cruel Intentions", "Legally Blonde" and "Girl" (1998), not really the kind of character she portrays as "Zoe". If you're a fan of Selma Blairs' work, you should definitely try to check this series out. You'll see a side of her that, at least I, hadn't seen before.
Those of you that tries to remember where you've seen David Moscow, "Duncan", before, I can tell you it took me a good long while before I realized it's actually "Josh" from the blockbuster-hit "Big" with Tom Hanks back in 1988. He's all grown up!

Zoe, Duncan, Jack and Jane is a blessing to Sunday nights. The usually bland and boring line-up at 9 o'clock gets old, fast! The show that follows four upperclass best friends living in New York City. The cast does an excellent job performing but the real credit goes to Michael Rosenbaum and Azura Skye. These two, who play twins, steal the show in every episode. Rosenbaum plays the cool, confident Jack while Skye plays the sarcastic and dry-witted Jane.
This show is great. The actors who play the four main characters are just marvelous.
Michael Rosenbaum plays as Jack, a suave guy. His jaded twin, Jane is played by Azura Skye. Selma Blair plays as the cheeky Zoe. Zoe has a high school crush on the brother of a wheelchair-bound classmate. Last but not least, of the main characters is Duncan, a geeky teen.
What makes this show so great is that it all takes place in New York. Unlike like Dawson's Creek or Saved By The Bell, ZDJ&J is about gowing up in New York, noy about going through high school. A sure bet.

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.
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.
