the fact matthew underwood from the zoey 101 cast has had to come out and disclose he was a victim of paedophilia and sexual assault because people were harassing him and his mother and legit sending them death threats for not speaking about dan schneider , etc. after the quiet on set documentary is incredibly fucked up and I am genuinely starting to fear this documentary has unintentionally done more harm than good atp.
cannot believe I have to say this but people should not have to potentially relive their real life fucking traumas just for your entertainment and so you give them a virtual pat on the back. csa is an incredibly hard topic for most people to talk about and, as a csa victim myself, is a ten times harder one for us. it’s also not new news that the entertainment industry is rampant with it. at all.
please stop sending potential victims and their families death threats because they aren’t performing the way you want them to and instead maybe learn how to behave like a decent human being thanks
Quinn & Logan didn't exactly start off on the right footing, yet it was this friction that allowed them to grow. Seemingly polar opposites, they appeared to have little to nothing in common, except their begrudging tolerance of one another.
However, it became strikingly apparent that they were very much two sides of the same coin... It just took a little time (& one particular bench!) for them to see that what they truly wanted & needed, was right there all along.
Zoey 102 is exactly what I thought it would be, and I don’t mean that negatively.
I only wish it had MORE Quinn and Logan. I know that after all this time, a substantial portion of this movie would be about Zoey and Chase FINALLY getting together — and staying together. I appreciate the female-led creative team giving their story some depth to bridge the years of adulthood, BUT there is much more meat with Quinn and Logan.
Erin Sanders is giving the best and surprisingly vulnerable performance in this movie, and I just want to see more of her. I want Matthew Underwood to have more real estate to tug back those layers of Logan Reese as an adult. I can see them. They’re RIGHT THERE.
I read an interview with the director, Nancy Hower (because the writers and actors are on strike until the AMPTP brings them a fair deal), and she said they have hopes to keep the franchise going in more movies and even a sequel show.
I honestly think that could be fun.
Considering how iCarly was able to reinvent itself and become a stronger show, I think Zoey 102 (or whatever it would be called by then) could do the same, especially if it keeps a female-led (!!!) team.
A show would really open up this rom-com and allow the creatives to get into the depths of these characters and their relationships all these years later, AND it wouldn’t have to rely so heavily on Zoey — and Zoey & Chase — then.
