Trivia
While Zoey's ability to hear people's thoughts through song is made up, Mary Steenburgen, who plays Zoey's mother, does have a condition where she hears everything as music. Since she woke up from minor arm surgery around 2009, she said everything from other people talking, to things she reads, to her own thoughts, and even the "background noise" of her head as sounding musical.

I knew this was going to be a big hit when Mrs. Shullivan stopped hitting her keyboard and started wiping her tear ducts. It takes about 20 minutes into this series pilot episode to understand where this comedy/drama /musical/dance series journey is taking us but what a pleasant ride we are taken on.

Kudos to the team of creative writers and to the choreographers who made me forget how great West Side Story was, and hey, who doesn't like a few Beatles song dropped into Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist?

Jane Levy was so good in her previous TV series, Suburgatory, and she is fantastic in this her new series. The supporting cast is top notch and I see a bright future for this TV series. Stay tuned for some more great musical and dance numbers with top notch story lines. We have a new hit on our hands!
