Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist canceled at NBC, series said to be “shopped around”

June 9, 2021 by EJ Moreno

The fan-favorite series Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist is ending its run at NBC after just two seasons, but the Jane Levy-led musical series might still have a future at another home.

According to a Lionsgate spokesperson, Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist is currently being shopped around for a new home. “In a world where finding loyal and passionate audiences is never easy, we believe there must be a home for this great, award-winning show with a passionate and dedicated following,” the spokesperson said.

Sources close to the situation note that there were plans to move the series to Peacock, the streaming service from NBCUniversal, but the plans reportedly didn’t pan out. Zoey’s was a critical hit with a 78% on Rotten Tomatoes and found a cult following, but viewership dipped in the second season.

The series followed Jane Levy as the titular Zoey Clarke, a computer coder living in San Francisco. Follow a strange event, Zoey begins to hear people’s thoughts and feelings performed through elaborate musical numbers.

Along with Levy, the series also starred Alex Newell, Skylar Astin, John Clarence Stewart, Mary Steenburgen, Andrew Leeds, Alice Lee, Michael Thomas Grant, Kapil Talwalkar, Lauren Graham, and Harvey Guillén.
