Boy, oh boy. The Zack Files. I have to say, it's actually a pretty interesting show (my favorite episode being the time Zack gets turned into a girl.) The Zack Files is a good example of a watered down and more humorous kids version of the X-Files. I always found it weird that all the weird stuff happens to Zack and never to Cam, Spence, or Gwen. Bad luck, I guess. The Zack Files is pretty interesting to say the least. Sometimes his antics are just hilarious. Unfortunately, most of the time I end up missing the first half of the show due to a long ride home from school. No biggie. Everything still works out. For all those who want freaky sci-fi style stuff, but don't want the more adult X-Files, The Zack Files are for you!
I love the show in fact it's one of my favorites. Maybe this is just because I have major crush on Jake Epstein & Robert Clarke but anyway (hehe) it's great for pre-teens & young teens ( such as 11-14). Well check it out sometime!
When The Zack Files first aired, back in 2000, it did not intrigue me at all, so I'd avoided it; however, one day, I was flipping through channels and thought, "Wow. This show is good, but what is it?" It turned out to be just what I'd been avoiding. I've been watching it on YTV ever since.
This is a very interesting show about three best friends, Zack Greenburg, Spencer Sharpe, and Cameron "Cam" Dunlevey. Zack seems to be attracted to the paranormal, therefore he and his friends must try to solve all of the "Zack Files." Each time, something different goes wrong, creating the plot. It thickens, though, as the boys are attracted, and trying to logically explain things, as well, to Gwen, while alonside there is Vernon ("Vermin"), who is a pesky little guy who tries to spoil Zack's unusual secret.
A very cute show for, probably, ages 9-16. Give it a try; I think you'll be pleasantly surprised...

ABC Family's one-hour show THE ZACK FILES works as a sci-fi thriller whose aim is for kids too old for material such as GOOSEBUMPS, but too young for violent and adult-oriented programs like THE X-FILES. I'm an 18-year old guy, and in my case, I'm in the gray zone, aren't I? Anyway, I found THE ZACK FILES to be quite an interesting show. Though at first I thought "Terrific, here's another kid show disguised as science fiction." But as soon as I began watching more episodes, I soon found myself a bit hooked. The most interesting aspect I consider about THE ZACK FILES are the cleverly plotted, if not totally logical, storylines. 3 kids by the names of Cam, Spense, and Zack encounter
strange happenings that spit at the face of reality, and somehow, the trio manages to fix up whatever the occurences have messed! The
acting by the stars are good, especially by Robert Clarke, aka Zack. Upon first watching this show, I couldn't help but think that Clarke seemed like a Frankie Muniz-wannabe, but he pretty much held on his own as Zack Greenberg.

I really like this show, good acting for young teens, ya' know? Robert Clark who plays the spunky Zack Greenburg has become one of my fave kid actors. I'd really like to see Clark in many other projects, in my opinion, he is the next River Phoenix, just without a sad end. But back to the show, it has good plots, good acting, good sets. It is cool for any age, so if you like the X-files with a bit of spunk and silliness, this is a show to watch, whether you are a kid or an elderly person.

- TriviaMichael Seater (Spencer Sharpe) and Jake Epstein (Cam Dunleavey) were born only one day apart: Seater on January 15, 1987 and Epstein on January 16, 1987.
- GoofsZack's adventures are in the same unnamed city throughout the series (filmed in Toronto, Ontario, Canada), but the money that is seen onscreen is not always from the same country. In Sockworld (2000), when Dan Greenburg collects money to pay the clothes-dryer repairman, and in Deja Vudoo (2000) when the Horace Hyde White boys hand over cash to pay for Vernon's videotapes of Zack's blunders, the bills are United States currency; however, in This Is Your Conscience Calling (2001), when Zack gets money from an ATM, the machine dispenses Canadian 20-dollar bills.
