The music is over — at the very least for now. NBC has cancelled the Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist TV present so, there received’t be a 3rd season on the community. Nevertheless, some behind the present aren’t giving up hope but.
A musical comedy-drama collection, Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist stars Jane Levy, Skylar Astin, Alex Newell, John Clarence Stewart, Andrew Leeds, Alice Lee, Michael Thomas Grant, Kapil Talwalkar, and Mary Steenburgen. Zoey Clarke (Levy) is a whip-smart pc coder who’s making her manner in San Francisco. After an uncommon occasion, Zoey, who at all times most popular podcasts over pop songs, immediately begins to listen to the innermost desires, ideas, and needs of the folks round her – her household, co-workers, and full strangers – by means of fashionable songs. The second season picked up after a tragedy and Zoey and her household started to recalibrate and navigate their new regular. As she discovered herself in a brand new dynamic at work and in her love life, Zoey’s musical powers continued to each awkwardly complicate and inform her worldview as she tried to rediscover pleasure and join with these round her.
The second season of Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist averages a 0.35 ranking within the 18-49 demographic and 1.82 million viewers. Compared to season one, that’s down by 16% within the demo and down by 9% in viewership within the dwell+similar day rankings. It was one of many lowest-rated scripted exhibits on NBC.
Negotiations had been underway to relocate Zoey’s to the Peacock streaming service for a 3rd and ultimate season of eight episodes however the deal didn’t occur. Lionsgate, which produces the collection, is claimed to be procuring the present elsewhere and there has supposedly been some curiosity.
Zoey’s creator, Austin Winsberg, and govt producer Paul Fieg took to social media immediately to encourage followers of the present not to surrender hope but.
I imagine we are able to have an actual likelihood elsewhere. However the extra fan help we are able to throw behind it – the higher. Please tweet #saveZoeysplaylist. Let’s get it trending and let the powers that be know the urge for food is robust. Additionally open to some other solutions to show the love.
