At first when I saw the previews for this show, I figured that it would be another pointless Nickelodeon show that was only made because Jamie has a famous older sister. But when my younger brother was watching it one day and I watched it as well, I found that my first impressions had been dead wrong. The show's humour never ceases to make me crack up because it's subtle, simple, and not the immature bathroom and slapstick humour usually shown in shows. I'm at least 3 years older than the characters in the program and yet I still find it completely funny. Even though the show isn't necessarily revolved around humour, like a sitcom might be, funny situations are constantly occurring. In addition to the fact that this show makes me laugh profusely, the characters are very realistic and don't fall into the typical stereotype. Zoey isn't the typical main adolescent girl, obsessed with boys and full of self-esteem issues, which is a relief in these sorts of shows. In contrast, Zoey is actually depicted as perfect, which is my only complaint with the show. In conclusion, not only is this show down-to-earth and realistic, but hilarious, as well. Not to mention original. I'd recommend it for anyone of any age.
I can honestly admit that I really enjoyed season one of Zoey 101, I can also admit that the reason I gave the show a chance was because I've been a huge fan of Britney Spears for years, and trying out her little sister's series seemed like a fine idea. I absolutely love the charm and cheesiness of season one, with a cast of very likable characters and a very "Lizzie like" bushy haired sorta dorky kid who tries his hardest to get Zoey to notice him as more of a friend. After season one's end, I really looked forward to season 2, which just premiered, although after watching the first episode, I noticed something was different, the cast went from kids to teenagers, of course it may seem silly that I said that cause all kids grow up, but it really changes the whole mood, where even the bushy haired kid isn't as dorky anymore. I still love it, and I won't stop, despite all the criticism it gets, but I have a feeling season 2 will bring along with it a completely different energy.
I just want to stand up for this show everyone is dumping on. It is not suppose to be a realistic view on life in a boarding school. It's suppose to be fun, and for the most part it delivers the goods. I think the leading lady is rock solid in her role. She's not always perfect, like when she stood up for Dustin against a bully and also when she tried to baby him, sure life in the school is unrealistic, but that is the case for most, if not all? situation comedies of this sort. Examples, High School Musical 1 and two, Hannah Montana ex cetera, so just strap yourself in and enjoy the ride. The last of shows seem to have a lack of focus. The producers seem to be stepping away from the comedy and focusing more on serious stuff. The Haunting of pca by the ghost was very weird like the concept wasn't entirely thought through, if want more drama in the show the characters have to be deeper.
10. You remote batteries are dead and your TV is 100 feet from your bed. 9. You want to make your parents suffer by wasting their cable and electricity, for not letting you go to summer camp. 8. You have an essay to write on "The plumage of television over the last few decades" and you think "Zoey 101" is the perfect subject. 7. You want to be able to look back and remember where Jamie Lynn Spears went wrong in her already pathetic career. 6. You hope Britney will guest star. 5. You want to find a new term to describe "crap" but aren't too sure how to spell "Jamie Lynn Spears." 4. You want to punish you little bro or sis. 3. You want to ante up the conversation when your friends are talking about "Gigli." 2. Your options were: "Snail Colony" or "Zoey 101." 1. You want to make sure you spell "Zoey 101" right when you submit it for worst show on basic cable at next year's Teen Choice Awards.
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.
