So I just paused on this scene from Zoey's Extraordinary Birthday and this screenshot is honestly the gift that keeps on giving. Tobin literally wrote Big D Energy and when McKenzie wrote "too dirty", his reply was just "No one asked you McKenzie". 😆

OH MY LORD THAT WAS A PHENOMENAL EPISODE.

I’m not even gonna try to go chronologically I just have so many Emotions

EMotions

I have to join that elite woodworking club so I can handcraft an emmy and personally deliver it to Alice Lee

this was the first time that the emotion of a heartsong overtook the production value, and it was the perfect one to do so-the performance was completely raw and real and it affected me so much

only this show can have me crying with laughter (JCS also gets one of my handcrafted emmys) and crying with sympathy in the span of an hour

also side note right while I was writing this I got the email that my attack magic shirt just shipped!!! I’m about to get a painted bunting!!! wooooooo!!!!

speaking of anyone, Skylar’s performance was also incredible-the best songs on this show are often the ones that are sung live, and, again, vulnerable and raw and real and AHHHHH

I loved the new insight we got into Rose’s character

the glitch in the title card was fabulous

the maximo’s set is just stunning, I keep being reminded of that

that opening scene was legitimately the most adorable thing I’ve ever seen

they were so cute this episode I simply cannot (although I feel like the other shoe is about to drop and I’m Very Scared)

while we’re on the zimon topic ZOEY MA’AM I SWEAR IF YOU DON’T TELL HIM I WILL BREAK THROUGH THE SCREEN AND YOU AND I WILL HAVE A TALK

not even only to yell at her about it. I just want to talk to her, I think we’d be good friends

given that their whole relationship started when she heard his first heartsong and was built off of that point and now she kept it from him AGAIN when she had a PERFECT CHANCE and he would have been VERY OPEN-MINDED...I’m scared yall I love them so much and don’t want them to hurt, I love them together and while I understand why Zoey wouldn’t want to ruin it it would be ruined even more if she kept lying

aaaaaanyway

Mary Steenburgen duetting with herself is everything I never knew I needed (and now I want to see Kap and Morgan do that number too)

the choreo for One absolutely slapped, I’m still living for the McTobin banter, and the costumes were impeccable (Kenzie’s tights!! Tobin’s sweatshirt!! the return of The Classic L.D. Tight Pants™️!!)

Katie Findlay ma’am how do you do that. how. do you. do that

Maggie with the pot step-touching behind Zoey...classic

Rocco Morris is Winning At Life. HIT THOSE RIFFS BUDDY

Marvin is adorable. I wouldn’t be surprised if nbc started selling those stuffed foxes as merch (and yes I would buy one)

I’m so invested in Mo and Perry’s relationship at this point (although I always have been)

turns out my favorite type of country music is Alex Newell country music

the message of this episode, flawlessly delivered by one of my favorite new characters, is so incredibly touching and needed and beautifully pulled off

and, as always, all the little one-liners and character moments were fantastic; Zoey at the science center, Mo’s crime drama obsession, the furby anatomy room, etc

Jane’s facial expressions were off the CHARTS, this woman is seriously everything I want to be as an actress and a person

WE GET MORE DEB NEXT WEEK WOOOOOOOOOO

this episode was just utterly phenomenal in every way as always; can’t wait for more (although I am Scared but hopefully things end up okay)

this is. probably my longest thoughts post yet. enjoy

Ok, But Seriously, I Have Thoughts

I have... really mixed feelings about this episode, so I'm gonna talk about those feelings. And if my feelings about zep as a show and this season come out during that... so be it. (Seriously, this got long. I'd apologize, but I'm not sorry). Also spoilers for the new ep below the cut, but y'all should've been able to guess that

- I... Zimon seriously deserves just so much better. We saw them as a couple together for three episodes, and they honestly weren't explored enough. Zimon... and this is a very personal opinion, but they really do strike me as a couple who never fully leave the honeymoon phase... like ever. Like, of course, they'll fight and disagree on a lot of things, but they also can have adult children, and just kind of act like newlyweds even if they've been married for over twenty years. And again, I know that's a very personal opinion, but I mean... we all knew c/arkeman was gonna be endgame, and it just feels like zimon was never given an actual chance.

- However, I do very much appreciate that their breakup was not messy, there's still clearly a ton of respect for the other on both of their sides, and that Simon is okay.

- "We didn't belong together." No, you fucking did.

- I am not going to stop writing Zimon fanfic either. In fact, this might spur me to write more and work harder on writing Zimon fanfic.

- Rose. Fucking. Deserves. Better. I'm not even gonna elaborate on this one. We all know it.

- Despite the fact that I fucking hate c/arkeman and that it was very, very rushed... I'm giving acting and singing props to Jane. I Melt With You is a song that's extremely personal to me. It helped get me through a point in my life where... I was constantly feeling at war with others, myself, and even felt unsafe in my own home (something I still feel today, no matter how irrational I know it is). I just generally feel a strong connection to every version of the song bc of that, whether it's the original or the Bowling for Soup cover (that was in Sky High!), and... Jane just has a way of making me feel safe when she sings. So, I really, really loved her cover.

- Um... yeah, I'm gonna be real, I don't like the idea of Max having powers. I don't know, I just think it kinda changes the whole original concept of the show, and I'm not a big fan of that...

- Simon! Simon working on changing SPRQ Point!!!!

- I do not really like how they handled Simon's racial bias/systemic racism in coding storyline *after* episode six (aka it only really being mentioned in passing, not being further explored, etc.), but,,, credits due where it's due I guess? I like how they handled him going to Danny Michael Davis, and how DMD listened.

- Sidenote, I kinda find it weird we as a fandom don't refer to him as Danny... it's Danny Michael Davis, DMD, or fucking Willy Wonka jokes. Makes sense I guess.

- Um... the writing was just... so lazy. Yeah. It's... really sad, I think that the show would've benefitted from even one less ep. But on the other hand... lazy writing is lazy writing.

- I think it would've been better - honestly - if Zoey's feelings of loss hadn't been connected to Max in a romantic way, but in a platonic/familial way. We didn't see a ton of their friendship, and yeah,, I hate Max, but there are a few moments there where you can see a legitimate friendship that's really sweet. I also think if they had maybe explored Zoey's fear of losing Simon as well as Max and centered the finale more on Zoey telling Simon about her power, it would've just been a lot better.

- But... honestly, after I just aired out all my issues with this episode (and the season too kinda),,, I honestly liked it. I hate that Zimon broke up and I just generally hate cl*arkeman but... this ep had some really great moments. Zoey and Mitch were beautiful to see again. Mctobin, Davidemily, and Mo x Perry were all absolutely my favorite parts of the episode. Hell, I'll even admit I... well I don't wanna say laughed considering I was so close to crying, but I let out a weird, breathy noise resembling a laugh when Zoey just blurted out she and Simon had broken up.

I don't want to say it was a bad episode, because I did honestly, enjoy ~parts~ of it... but... it wasn't even that cl/arkeman happened, I knew it would, but how it did... it just honestly (my g.od i need to stop writing that word) seemed like they were trying to kill off or like... fucking quash *any* hope Zimon shippers may have had,,, and the writing was just so fucking lazy, I just...

I started the show after dance one night because my teacher showed us the Help! number bc he was an extra in it. And I had already been intrigued by the few ads I had seen for it. So, my mom and I watched it, and we loved it. So we kept watching. And it was good! It was really good! Sure it could be cheesy, but... that didn't matter. I latched on...

I don't know if, ZEP is gonna get renewed, and if it is, I don't know if I'll watch it if/when it does. I latch on to shows really fucking hard when I do latch on. It's why I keep rewatching The Good Place and why I'll never forgive Freeform/Disney/Marvel for canceling Cloak and Dagger. The way I latch onto things is probably a bit unhealthy. And the fact of the matter is, despite everything, my overwhelming feelings about ZEP are positive. And I latched on. I'd honestly do it all over again.

I have a lot of feelings about this fandom and this show, both positive and negative. Still, I love it. Unconditionally. Ultimately, I don't care if Zoey ends up with Max or Simon (though, seriously, she and Simon are made for each other). It's a good fucking show, ships shouldn't be everything that matters.

I began lurking in this fandom when I was fifteen. I began posting fanfic for it when I was sixteen. I'm almost seventeen now. I was planning to get Tumblr when I was seventeen. I also knew I wouldn't forgive myself if I hadn't made my presence here known if it didn't get renewed.

I want to thank @simon-haynes because, uh, holy fuck, I adore you. Running a blog for fandom is something I couldn't even fathom, especially when a large portion of the fandom doesn't like your ship. I legitimately can't believe you followed me.

Thank you to @jennakang. You are, honestly, one of the best writers I've ever read from. You were so incredibly supportive of my writing on ao3, despite the fact you didn't know who I was, and that really meant the world to me. Thank you so much for your contributions to the fandom. Also, uh, fun fact, I was the anon who, after you expressed the want to write the quarantined Zimon fic, sent in that ask that was like "please do!" and also "hope I'm not being pushy about this". I don't know if you remember that at all, but your response meant the world to me.

And uh, lastly @myheartissetinmotion. Um, wow. I know we barely know each other, but I can honestly say, you have been my anchor for this whole show. I love both your Tori content on TikTok as well as just zep content you do on there, and how you wrote her into zep on ao3. I personally like to think of you as the pioneer of Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist Tok. You were pretty unbiased when it came to ships on there, and that made me feel safe in a place where there were virtually no zimon shippers. Your content was funny, and I always found myself laughing or screaming "accurate" at it. I know, I'm the nuisance who every few months DMs you about something zep related, but I hope you know, you made me feel both seen and somewhat appreciated in this fandom. I cannot thank you enough, Isabella 💗

I know Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist may not be ending. But this still oddly feels like the end of an era. I'm not leaving the fandom, I plan to keep posting fanfic for it and everything. I just want everyone who may be reading this to know I love this fandom and I would not take any moment here back.

Also, this is me formally asking for a link to a Discord group chat since I know it exists but I'm too scared to actually ask any of you for it directly.

done with the ZEP S2 finale and I have so many FeELinGs... (spoilers warning)

don't expect this to be cohesive lol I'm brain dumping

the very first thing... I'd be ok with it not being renewed? the story isn't "over" but all the arcs are neatly tied, they are all in good spaces. I feel like there would still be stories to tell but they'd feel more sitcom than dramedy now? (Maggie going on dates, Mo dealing with odd costumers at Maximo, David and Emily trying to get Miles into a good kindergarten etc.) There are still things unwritten (reference intended) but they are all in a good place....

I'd love to see them fill the gaps (David's and Em's wedding, anyone?) but... it had a very final feel to it so... I'd be good?

Also the core of the show - Zoey losing her dad, Zoey learning to move on - is wrapped up? I feel? It was a bit fast but.. yes?

Anyway.

why do great break-ups make me attracted to the people breaking up? No joke, even in real life when someone breaks up in a mature way I'm all "ooooh so you can handle emotional challenging situations can you?" *heart eyes*

what I mean to say: I would have wanted Zimon to work out. But I predicted Simon getting frustrated with Zoey holding back and they handled it very calmly, so, ya. Not ok but ok. Rushed. But I'm ok with it.

Also it gave us Still Standing by JCS *.*

I was today years old when I realized that those are the same initials as Jesus Christ Superstar. Coincidence???? Moving on.

McTobin give me LIFE y'all

the incubation programm yes bro I had a feeling they'd do that, very true of them, happy for Simon to have this opportunity to change stuff

lol David i feel the same. Parents dating, even more so online, is a weird thing to witness. Been there. And yes, my mom has been catfished on dating platforms.

BEATLES + BALCONY I liiive

honestly all the songs. All the songs. so good. :)

i loved how angry Zoey got at Max giving her the job cause it mirrored my anger at the whole plot. I'm so glad that in the end it was more about him keeping it secret from her than about "you owe me cuz me a good boi"

ZOEY SAID A KEY SMASH I LOVE HER

"You got kids, I got her." Mo: Adoptive Parent Mode Activated

Did Emily really "if it can be broken, it means it still works" Maggie? I'm here for it. (I'm also here for characters taking meds without drama)

Good on Zoey to not overstep boundaries (even though she misinterpreted the song)

I pondered making an extra post on Max but maybe I can keep it short:

I'm not against Zomax, they can be very cute.

In an ideal world, Max would have to adress how petty he acted to Zoey on multiple occasions.

But the universe gave him the heart songs, so, that could help him understand other people better? (Not that Zoey became a master in that, but it helped her getting more understanding of others?)

They definitly can move forward and have a good friendship to build upon.

What can I say, I am weak, it's Friends to Lovers and Jane and Skylar are cute. So i'm not mad at it.
