Agreed, it makes sense that everyone else is more fulfilled in their careers than Zoey is, given how she was easily the least entertaining, memorable character.
like i imagine a bunch of people that identified with zoee when they were younger, just for nickelodeon to be like oh yeah that character you related with? they peaked in highschool and are now a loser that ruined their friends wedding and faked her whole life 💀 sounds like great character development
@@sybill123fulI’m sorry, but who on earth could identify with Zoey lol? She had the personality of a wet paper bag in the original series yet for some reason everyone worshiped the ground she walked on. It’s not even that she was unlikable, she legit did not have a single personality characteristic at all. You’d have to be a human brick wall to identify with Zoey as a character.
In the original show, Zoey was easily the least entertaining character, despite her name being in the title, and being the clear lead. Almost two decades later, and the side characters are STILL more compelling than Zoey.
So true, I remember literally every reoccurring supporting character besides her little brother being easier to get invested in the story of. What’s odd… Victoria Justice was so compelling in Zoey 101 but her character in Victorious was one of the least compelling characters in the cast.
It's really a shame how many shows have inactive main characters who are just vessels for the audience to experience the far more interesting and driven world that surrounds them.
As a STEM major, I don’t know a single person who would get married in their lab coat. That would be like a nurse getting married in their scrubs. Gross 🤢
I wore a lab coat to prevent chemically burning my arms working in a lab (among other things). I don’t think it would have paired well with my wedding dress, but maybe it would have stopped me from accidentally spilling a bright red energy drink on it? 😂
I'm not that fussed about her. I don't think her sister is the most honest person in the world either and that family has issues. However she's not a good actress. It's more like they couldn't afford Emily Osment so they got her instead.
Idk why this comment reminded me of a Tiktok I came across of some woman doing a fanfic-y storyline where Kelly's daughter is the band's choreographer. Lmao
Gotta love the trend of quirky girlboss alcoholism. It's so funny and relatable. Isn't it hilarious how we have no financial security and social structures to turn to to help us with our issues so we find solace on the bottom of a bottle filled with poison? 👁️👄👁️
i didnt like the movie but that..isn't really an issue(?) its part of the story and its fine.the comment sounds oerly pedantic/petty over something that is not so deep
@@lucasouza889it is that deep lol the constant normalization of drinking wine to cope with anything and everything leads to wild rates of alcohol abuse
To be honest, the fact that the PCA was a money laundering scheme all along had me hollering 😂. That school is probably the most ridiculous depiction of a boarding school ever put to screen. I know it was a kids show and that many of us wanted to attend a school like the PCA, but still.
Well we see them in classes plus they had a teacher who attended PCA in the 80s so he did still go to college and get his teaching degree plus he was smart and friendly he had a normal life from what we saw
It was awful and totally destroy's the original show, we never got to see Dean Rivers again and never will. So many characters there Coco, Kazu, some of the old teachers etc. Everyone wanted to be in PCA vack in the day, they didn't do it justice at all.
right? I was kinda surprised to find out they put that storyline in there and kind of fucking over the school for like no reason other than to be...idk I have no idea what they were trying to do. Maybe humor. Idk. @@alanchamberlain9902
One of my high schools was outed as a money laundering scheme years later- we still had classes and well educated teachers when I attended. Some of my best teachers ever worked there lol none of the things mentioned by commenters makes that plot point not make sense- PCA being a money laundering scheme makes so much sense to me lmao I loved that
What bothers me most if the fact that they didnt name the movie Zoey 201. I mean they are matured and usually 200 classes are for higher level courses so it would make more sense in my own head cannon.
The most shocking thing to me is how visually bland it is when my most vivid Zoey 101 memories are of the cooky and colorful fashion moment or the crazy dorms with wild decorations. Nothing about it feels like the show besides the cast (and most of them aren't even recognizable cause they have such different styles now)
Yeah Zoey was a kids show. To reboot a kids show or movie you would norally make another kids show. Some adults will see it out of nostalgia and they'll take their kids, and then a whole new bunch of kids will also see it. They've gone and turned it into an adult drama, so no one will watch it out of nostalgia or anything
I never understood why movies/shows like this put SO much emphasis on high school romances. Those are usually the worst romances of your life. You're trying to grow past them
I also find it unrealistic that everyone is still friends with and dating people from high school. Like, it happens but what a small bubble to keep yourself in.
@@andrea2kxIkr, I'm so worried for my sister. My sister is moving out of state to Washington d.c. but she still going to be with her High School boyfriend (just long distance) and after this year's School year is over her High School boyfriend is going to decide if he'll break up with her or if he'll marry her and move in with her. I've always said to my sister that she should just break up with him because I really don't see their marriage lasting that long, but then I know it's very hard for her.
My tinfoil hat theory is that emphasizing how the protagonist "got it right the first time" with a high school sweetheart is meant to advance the Christian-coded idea of "the first person you're with is the most special, " reading between the lines, the first person you're with romantically AND physically, aka, don't sleep around, settle down with the first person you're ever with, the one you met as a teen. It's the same reason why "big city career girls" in romcoms end up with their small-town high school boyfriend and give up their whole life to move "back home" and start a family now that they've finally found the ~man~ again
Why are they trying so hard to make Zoey out to be this "quirky" outcast? She was NEVER like that on the show. She was the cool chick that came in to shake things up.
Despite the Creator not being involved in the reboot, him having abused the teen actors in his shows makes me view them differently. In particular, Jennette McCurdy and Alexa Nikolas deserve huge hugs for all the trauma that they had to endure in their childhoods.
I love how you can always tell a writing room had zero Ideas when the main character of the show is a TV producer or writer or something like that. They really did not know how to make a whole show about anything other than what they do all day 😅
The writing for Chase/Zoey's relationship was traaaaash. She had better development/chemistry with a literal murderer than the guy we're supposed to be rooting for her to be with lmao
I agree !! I refuse to play anything with Jamie unless it was that one show she did where her ugly cry face was constant!! It’s interesting they had Logan (Matthew Underwood) and (Michael ) Christopher Massey due to their criminal past.
I'm sad they did this and not Ned's Declassified. Like the Ned's gang adulting and parenting and giving tips would have been fantastic. I know they tried to pitch it but Nick turned their nose up
That's so stupid because the Ned's cast are already still friends and literally no one from the show has talked ill of the production so they could avoid drama. Plus it'd be so easy to have relevant modern jokes with the absurdism, making a survival tip like get 'roommates to make rent cheaper' and have Ned living with like 9 other dudes. How to keep yourself from becoming the bad guy on Twitter but it keeps happening to the cast until the final tip is to never post. Making cheap alcohol taste better where they add in a bunch of stuff to make a $3 wine taste good. How to hide the smell of weed from your landlord. They could've leaned into the millennial adulting challenges and that wouldve killed if there were good writers on board.
Zoey wasn’t popular, I mean I knew no one who loved the show. I wonder if it was more viewed in the states closer to where Jamie is from. (I am a born & raised New York City gal & it didn’t appeal too much here) The only aspect of it I can see being intriguing as a tween is being the first few girls at a all boy school. I think they were hoping she could bring in more views due to her big sis drama.
The only joy I derived from this show was learning that Logan and Quinn not only lasted for years but they got married. Putting those two together was the smartest decision the show writers ever did. Was definitely supposed to just be a one-off thing but ended up becoming a fan favorite ship. Much like Chandler and Monica from _Friends._
I will never be able to take Jamie seriously after her involvement with her sister’s nightmare. She doesn’t even deserve to have this show as much of a flop as it is lmao
I am still just very shocked they actually did ANY kind of reboot considering Jamie Lynn isnt the only cast member who did VERY hate-able actions .... MULTIPLE times. **cough cough** drunk driving abusive groomer Logan. **cough cough** abusive Michael. 🙄
Yeah, I get what you mean. Kind of surprised the actors that weren't originally attached to the show agreed to appear in this, considering everything we know about these people...
So because they did bad things in their personal lives, they’re supposed to just give up their acting careers and never work again? I swear, you people are weird.
the amount of songs in this movie was crazy. the montage of her scrolling through everyone’s socials ended and it IMMEDIATELY went into a different song like woah let me breathe
The writer seriously didn't have enough ideas for a full film so they padding the run time with cliche pop songs. I wasn't really paying attention to the lyrics but I bet they are describing what's going on in the scene at the moment.
I’m so here for you dragging Jamie Lynn. I have a theory that Britney paid off the hairstylist on the set of Zoe 102 to make Jamie Lynn’s hair look as terrible as possible. Because there’s no other possible explanation for why they would’ve allowed those extensions to look that ragged.
Then it serves her right. But then why didn’t she notice and say something about it? You’d think anyone would. Speaking of hair why didn’t chase have his fro?
@@Michaelabeauty96 oh, every time I see a clip from it I cringe lol Why they Gotta give everyone extensions halfway down their back when they clearly don’t have enough of their own hair to support them? It’s Hollywood, just get a nice expensive lace, front wig and save everyone the hassle. Although, if they have this much of a hard time making extensions look good I bet nobody on set knew how to handle a wig.
Fun fact: not too long ago, Nickelodeon posted a video of the Zoey 102 cast reflecting on their favorite moments from the original series. If you’re familiar enough with Zoey 101 to recall those moments, you’ll notice that, in a blatant display of spite towards Alexa Nikolas and Paul Butcher for calling out Jamie Lynn Spears for her… everything, really, any clips from the show featured in the video where Nicole or Dustin were originally present in the scene were edited so that they’re cropped out of the shot. Tellingly, Lola wasn’t cropped out of scenes she appeared in even though Victoria Justice didn’t come back for Zoey 102 either. Hell, Zoey and Nicole’s original roommate Dana is still shown in these clips despite Kristin Herrera leaving the show after Season 1. Once again, this company shows that, when given the choice, they will side with the oppressors over the victims.
why did they decided to reboot it after all the drama around that show. Dan Schneider has caused so much controversy and damage to people who worked for him that it’s impossible to separate him from his work.
@@mollypocrass4562I watched the last three seasons of OG icarly few weeks ago and the only way I can describe it how chaotic and lol random it is. The new series doesn’t capture any of that chaotic energy OG icarly had. And to be honest, no disrespect to Miranda, Jerry and the rest of the cast, it doesn’t translate well if it doesn’t have that energy. It’s like yeah the weird, borderline innuendo is gone but that’s what made it so bad it’s good. They should’ve never touched anything that was made by Schneider in the first place.
@@BabyGirlTiny and I understand that fully and I don’t disagree with you but many reboots struggle with finding their identity (as in are they made for me the person who grew up with that show or my kids who have never heard of the show in the first place) Zoey 101 and icarly were made to appeal to the kids of the millennial generation (ie me) not the next generation. So it doesn’t make sense to reboot it or return to it again if it was absolutely an absolutely wanted one (and it really wasn’t because of all the behind the scenes stuff with Alexa and Jamie Lynn) All lot of Nickelodeon live shows are pretty bad so it’s not just this one however I really don’t think it’s a smart idea to reboot something from a problematic individual so that another problematic person can get money after her golden goose left. You can enjoy the show all you want and you can acknowledge that it came from a problematic person too. I just don’t like Nickelodeon firing foot man for being a abusive person but still finding ways to use his work to create nostalgia bait for their streaming service. Either find different creators to work with or find something else to reboot (like Ned’s Declassified still holds up). But Hollywood has to Hollywood.
I feel like this movie only happened because Jamie Lynn would not stop harassing them about bringing it back because she’s delusional and never got past the fact that she ruined her chance at a career in entertainment before she really started. From what I’ve seen, her life revolves around being petty that people don’t put her on the same pedestal as Britney, because she’s done literally nothing to earn a pedestal. And then she helped abuse Britney to give herself a power trip. Now she doesn’t have the same hold in Britney’s life, so she scrambling for any chance of getting noticed by the public eye to “prove” to all us haters that she was the hidden star in the family all along. Even the movie plays off as the actors having midlife crisis’s and trying to relive the glory days of being “famous”. They were all kid actors that didn’t break out into mainstream media as they grew up, so their acting is still as bad as when they were child actors. But I still feel like the ones that came back, only did it to get Jamie Lynn to shut up.
Nicole , chase and Micheal carried the show and their acting was good as a child for their age. Jamie on the other hand acting wasn’t good even though she was the main lead girl but her personality was boring. The kid show was based on nepotism anyway in which Jamie was a bully and tried everything she could to not let other child star grow .
The Clumsy Successful Woman Trope got me thinking how Hollywood has this aversion of portraying actual regular ppl who aren't on high positions in companies or have their own businesses. And If a person is financially struggling in a story then it's always in a stylish huge loft in NY while also never really doing their jobs. I think this Clumsy Successful Woman Trope is one of the ways Hollywood tries to have their cake and eat it as well by making the female character living out the mythical American dream while also trying to make her relatable to audiences. But I think I speak for everyone when I say if you show me a woman who's a CEO wearing designer clothing complaining about being single, living in a huge home in downtown of a metropolis, but also have her trip and fall on flat surfaces, she's still not gonna be relatable.
i hate the trope of “i’m gonna go to the wedding with a date to show them how well i’m doing!!” because i feel like it puts such pressure on people (especially young women) to find relationships. it really pushes the narrative that if u aren’t in a relationship by a certain point, there is something wrong with you and people should pity you and worry about you.
I was so disgusted when I rewatched the girls basketball team episode again and there was a close up shot panning up zoeys body while she was wearing a tight tank top and shorts. So many terrible things that went over our heads
There's no way to make a reboot work for Zoey 101 because anyone who cared about the Spears sisters at all now knows Jamie is literally evil. There's nothing to make us root for her.
I feel sorry for her. She probably felt very unheard and left to her own devices, and hence resentful, while her sister had her issues. I also don't think her sister is a reliable narrator. But Jamie has zero acting or singing talent and no natural charisma like her sister used to have.
I honestly can't imagine how awful it would be if, while I was imprisoned unfairly and against my will for over a decade, my own sister not only did not do anything to help me, but even made money publishing my story. I know my sister would never do that, but honestly, if she did, I would no longer consider her my sister.
i feel like it's worth pointing out that both chase and zoeys characters felt the need to literally get fake partners of fear that theyd be seen as "lesser than" or like pitiable simply for being single bc that shit should've stayed in the 2000s.
Jaime Lynn Spears is supposed to be thirty?? I don't know if it's her styling or whatever preventative botox she did but she looks older than everyone else on the show
I'm getting real sick of nickelodeon and disney remaking and rebooted shows and movies from years ago. It already has gotten old, yet somehow they still keep doing it. These networks never learn.
I still haven’t gotten around to watching the icarly Reboot is it good? can someone spoil it and tell me if it’s worth watching? I don’t wanna waste my time 💀
17:56 “if you do this for me, I’ll get you on the show.” So basically, Zoey broke Data protection laws which would cause her company a multimillion dollar fine (assuming the states laws are similar to GDPR), to use the personal information she gathered on someone through business means for a non business matter. She abused her power as someone who works “in the industry” to convince someone to do her a personal favour, which for all he knows could include physical intimacy of varying degrees, all in exchange for the promise that she will pull some strings and get him on a show? Dan Schineider may not have been directly involved in this project, but whoever was clearly has an equally disgusting look at the world.
Did the character of Zoey move forward though? She seems like one of those bitter reminiscent people who peaked in high school and long for the “glory days”. The title is stupid but it may be apt lol
My partner doesn't want a big fancy wedding, I kind of want one, but I also have conflicting views of marriage. But I would never go "oh yeah let's go get married at your old high school!" like... gross.
I knew this movie was going to flop but I didn't expect the plot and acting to be THAT bad 😭😭😭 Jamie doesn't even look like Zoey anymore, she looks like she could be her grandmother with how bad she's aged. I'm only a couple years younger than her and have multiple chronic illnesses that caused me premature aging and we look 2 decades apart 💀 I guess being cranky and abusive to everyone around you ages you. Even Britney looks 10 years younger than her with all the stress she's been put through. I just can not take her seriously knowing what she's done, and then on top of it doesn't even look reminiscent of the character she's supposed to be playing. Alexa Nikolas on the other hand hasn't aged a day 😍
It probably sounds insincere to read comments like these, but genuinely your videos can change my mood from bad to good. I appreciate your content!! Thanks Nick!
It’s wild that their nostalgia of PCA wasn’t ruined by the fact that the school was a total scam and almost ruined their education - if I went to a high school and they were stealing my money and unaccredited I would not be sitting around in my house wearing a PCA shirt on the regular nor would I be getting married in the old building 🤣
I still remember thinking Zoey herself was the most boring character on the show, and it was all her nutterbutter friends that were the highlight. Most people I state this opinion to tend to agree, so I feel like this is a near-universal opinion. I especially loved Quinn and Michael, and Mark Del Figalo and his ridiculous name are still a meme among me and my sister all these years later.
She was also supposed to be crafty, creative and stylish or whatever. They had plots in the show where she was designing backpacks and embellished dresses. She also designed the Drake Bell shirt in the crossover episode. I think it would have made more sense for her to do something fashion related as an adult. I'm not defending her character though. She was my least favourite and was always supposed to be the cool girl and the one who would make the sensible decisions. Only her friends were clumsy or quirky.
I always come back to you to familiarize myself with television and film atrocities, as well as enjoy the occasional Shane Dawson diss. Your clever commentaries and sharp wit are always more than welcomed and thoroughly appreciated. ❤️
It's funny how the ICarly revival did it right and was able to prove that older shows can adjust (albeit rocky at first) to the older fans. They're on Season 3 and I hope they get a Season 4.
I'm so happy to see somebody else loves the iCarly reboot 😩 everybody always talks about how bad it is but I find the humor and storylines so similar to the og, I love it so much.
Wow, i had no idea the ending was so mean-spirited, given the actor who played zoeys brother hasnt had great things to say about her since the original show
I saw Jamie Lynn debut on All That, and even though she was just a child I could already tell she wouldn't be shit. I was like "This girl thinks she's giving Amanda Bynes, but it's way more 'Girl who will grow up to be nice to my face but a bitch behind the scenes'"
I don't have much against her but I think she got her roles on nepotism. She just doesn't have natural flow to her acting and is more like a stage school girl
Haven't finished the video yet, and I know this is nitpicking, but shouldn't the the show be called Zoey 201? Like if a class has the course code 101, the 1 at the beginning implies that it's at an introductory level, and with each year, the first number increase by one, while the last numbers organize the course within that grade/year. Isn't 201 the obvious next step to 101 if we're talking about a change in time? 102 is a lateral move! It doesn't make any sense!
@@communitysaint Mmm fine, I guess it kinda makes sense. But it seems like a mised opportunity. I forgot her dorm number was 101, and I feel like the 101 in relation to school courses makes more sense since the show takes place at a boarding school.
I liked it lol not for Zoe or Chase, but Quinn and Logan. I loved their story back with 1 oh one. So it was nice to watch them be older and get married. I also did like the whole strangler twist at the end lol
she could’ve taken from the millennial experience but it wouldn’t have been realistic to her, she’s mega rich compared to almost every millennial out there. others around her same age are struggling for rent or to even get their own place, she had nowhere near the same problems. no hate to you, just putting it out there.
Hey Nick, I’m having a shit day. Can’t describe how much better it made me feel when I saw you posted this video. Now I can forget about life for 32 minutes and 37 seconds. Love you and love what you do. Your work is important ♥️ People need it
I watched the original show as it was airing. The only things I can recall about it at age 30 are: 1) The theme song slapped. I downloaded a low quality clip mp3 off limewire; and 2) As a hormonal teenager I loved the idea of being one of the new girls at a previously all boys school. For those reasons, I'm glad I skipped this movie. Sorry you had to endure copyright hell for this!
NICK the ending parody you did of starships has me crying laughing 😂 I can’t believe they did that though. Imagine being the actor who played her brother seeing that
As a girl with constant manic pixie broken ankles and bruises, I will say I know it's overdone and kind of toxic but I've always appreciated that being clumsy was made into something "quirky" and "cute" because I'm stuck like this either way but at least this way media seems to have brainwashed people into finding it charming when I topple over and fall down into their stuff or spill shit everywhere and I genuinely think it's gotten me out of trouble here and there 😅 I wouldn't fight for it to stay but I can't deny it's proven useful to the clumsy bitches of reality
My issue with these reboots is that ending up with your high school crush is like the least relatable thing ever. Whenever Iearn that people are high school sweethearts, my immediate reaction is sadness, not awe. So the idea of watching people who peaked in high school continues to not be able to get over high school just doesn't appeal to me.
This is the earliest I’ve been to watch one of your videos and I’m so glad it happens to be the one where you drag Jamie Lynn, today was in fact a good day
in your mind, they're still the adorable, promising older kids that you wanted to be like, going to the school of your dreams. not the puffy failed adults you're a little scared you're turning into. it's so hard to watch
I remember Zoey being the absolute worst lead character on any show I watched back then. I just remember everyone else idolizing her just for existing and being pretty, but she really only just walked around and was popular. She was mean to the weird characters a lot, and spoiled the few times something didn't go her way. Nice to know THAT much didn't change in 15 years. I remember Unfabulous and Ned's Declassified having much more relatable characters
OMG I wish I would've found you years ago. Just watched some of your quarantine content and it was so funny!! Love your sense of humor and sass. Thank you for jumping on these grenades for us 🫡
Very very happy I didn't watch that movie, but got to see it with you! ♥️ what a ride. I loved that show as a kid, but after everything that came out... It's just a cash grab for Jamie Lynn. There was absolutely no heart in the script or anything. Thank you for taking your time and making this commentary/ review. ♥️
I've always thought of the "smart and clumsy" / "smart and spacey" / "smart and weird" tropes as representative of the symptoms of ADHD and ASD, which can include dyspraxia.
Since they tried so hard to make it look more "adult" you know what would have been iconic? To make the reason she broke up with puffy face back in the days the fact that she got pregnant 🤪 and make it about how difficult it was to have a baby in her teens and that's why she kinda detached herself from her friends group
Damn, even if Jamie wasn't such a female dog, this movie would still be boring af, even as someone who grew up with the original series. Also, loved the review, Nick! So glad you managed to get it back up after the Paramount bs.
Since Nick brought up the fact that Victoria “I think we all sing” Justice being the most successful from Zoey 101, I’d like to take the opportunity to also remind everyone that Oscar-Nominated Austin Butler (from Elvis) was on this show for the last few seasons and was zoey’s boyfriend for a bit. That’s all. Thanks for coming to my TED talk 😅
As a kid raised on public (free) TV, I can't help but find these Disney/Nick shows fascinating, especially as reboots. I like how I literally didn't know Britney's little sister had her own show until this year. I had only heard: 1. Jamie existed 2. Had a baby young 3. Something something angst in the shadow of sis something
she had another show as a kid too and also a music "career" that Britney tried to help get going. While I disagree with her decision to write a book, I feel sorry for her. Being the other sibling of someone with a mental illness is not easy but it's not something that is often spoen about or where support is given.
I love a new Clip Breakdown to watch on my night off, getting ready to go out to dinner 💅 If baby Toast makes an appearance I will simply be beside myself 💜 hope all DiRama club members are feeling happy and healthy today!!
I saw this movie and it's super awkward because this is essentially a 30yo woman who peaked in highschool. Kinda a sad life for a main character
very that!
Agreed, it makes sense that everyone else is more fulfilled in their careers than Zoey is, given how she was easily the least entertaining, memorable character.
like i imagine a bunch of people that identified with zoee when they were younger, just for nickelodeon to be like oh yeah that character you related with? they peaked in highschool and are now a loser that ruined their friends wedding and faked her whole life 💀 sounds like great character development

So true, I remember literally every reoccurring supporting character besides her little brother being easier to get invested in the story of.
What’s odd…
Victoria Justice was so compelling in Zoey 101 but her character in Victorious was one of the least compelling characters in the cast.
Like I was and always will be watching for my girl Quinn zoey could never be her
@@maenad1231i feel like that’s the curse of being the main lead.. you have to be plain enough for the audience to project onto

When I think back to this show the nerdy roommate sticks out more to me then she ever did.😅
As a STEM major, I don’t know a single person who would get married in their lab coat. That would be like a nurse getting married in their scrubs. Gross 🤢
I would.... But only because it would be something even slightly interesting for male fashion to have.
lol seriously
I wore a lab coat to prevent chemically burning my arms working in a lab (among other things). I don’t think it would have paired well with my wedding dress, but maybe it would have stopped me from accidentally spilling a bright red energy drink on it? 😂
I personally own about 7 lab coats that live in my closet and still never wear them anywhere other than lab....and then only when they make me.
@@FaeQueenCoryyou could wear a dress and that would be much more interesting than a dirty coat
My favorite thing about the reboot is Jamie Lynn’s scary lack of awareness of the fact that we don’t like her anymore. Like nobody wanted this.
They wanted to see the rest of the cast not Jamie Lynn and Chase deserved better as he was a cutie and a good personality too
@@oooh19 this movie could’ve been a tiktok
literally like girl come on💀
@@HeyitsBri_ it could’ve easily been a fanfic or something like 💀
I'm not that fussed about her. I don't think her sister is the most honest person in the world either and that family has issues. However she's not a good actress. It's more like they couldn't afford Emily Osment so they got her instead.
Can’t believe this was released, while my script (wattpad fanfic) for Bigger Time Rush sits on the shelf!
hollywood fumbled the bag!!

To be honest, the fact that the PCA was a money laundering scheme all along had me hollering 😂. That school is probably the most ridiculous depiction of a boarding school ever put to screen. I know it was a kids show and that many of us wanted to attend a school like the PCA, but still.
Well we see them in classes plus they had a teacher who attended PCA in the 80s so he did still go to college and get his teaching degree plus he was smart and friendly he had a normal life from what we saw
It was awful and totally destroy's the original show, we never got to see Dean Rivers again and never will. So many characters there Coco, Kazu, some of the old teachers etc. Everyone wanted to be in PCA vack in the day, they didn't do it justice at all.
right? I was kinda surprised to find out they put that storyline in there and kind of fucking over the school for like no reason other than to be...idk I have no idea what they were trying to do. Maybe humor. Idk. @@alanchamberlain9902
as a former boarding school student…. couldn’t agree more lmao
One of my high schools was outed as a money laundering scheme years later- we still had classes and well educated teachers when I attended. Some of my best teachers ever worked there lol
none of the things mentioned by commenters makes that plot point not make sense- PCA being a money laundering scheme makes so much sense to me lmao I loved that
What bothers me most if the fact that they didnt name the movie Zoey 201. I mean they are matured and usually 200 classes are for higher level courses so it would make more sense in my own head cannon.
This bothered me too 😅
It's because her address is 102 now! Truly the lames justification
The 101 was after her room number, not after a class though
The most shocking thing to me is how visually bland it is when my most vivid Zoey 101 memories are of the cooky and colorful fashion moment or the crazy dorms with wild decorations. Nothing about it feels like the show besides the cast (and most of them aren't even recognizable cause they have such different styles now)
This!!
Yeah Zoey was a kids show. To reboot a kids show or movie you would norally make another kids show. Some adults will see it out of nostalgia and they'll take their kids, and then a whole new bunch of kids will also see it. They've gone and turned it into an adult drama, so no one will watch it out of nostalgia or anything
@@SanjaSleipnir😮Likiioooooo oo okoooo okay 😊.😮😮😮😮 en dashes dashes 😢😊
I never understood why movies/shows like this put SO much emphasis on high school romances. Those are usually the worst romances of your life. You're trying to grow past them
I also find it unrealistic that everyone is still friends with and dating people from high school. Like, it happens but what a small bubble to keep yourself in.
@@andrea2kxIkr, I'm so worried for my sister. My sister is moving out of state to Washington d.c. but she still going to be with her High School boyfriend (just long distance) and after this year's School year is over her High School boyfriend is going to decide if he'll break up with her or if he'll marry her and move in with her. I've always said to my sister that she should just break up with him because I really don't see their marriage lasting that long, but then I know it's very hard for her.
yes! 15 years after high school, i am definitely not still in touch with my high school bf or pining after him. 😂
My tinfoil hat theory is that emphasizing how the protagonist "got it right the first time" with a high school sweetheart is meant to advance the Christian-coded idea of "the first person you're with is the most special, " reading between the lines, the first person you're with romantically AND physically, aka, don't sleep around, settle down with the first person you're ever with, the one you met as a teen. It's the same reason why "big city career girls" in romcoms end up with their small-town high school boyfriend and give up their whole life to move "back home" and start a family now that they've finally found the ~man~ again
Why are they trying so hard to make Zoey out to be this "quirky" outcast? She was NEVER like that on the show. She was the cool chick that came in to shake things up.
They try to merge Nicole character into zoey which is weird because they are both two different people
Despite the Creator not being involved in the reboot, him having abused the teen actors in his shows makes me view them differently. In particular, Jennette McCurdy and Alexa Nikolas deserve huge hugs for all the trauma that they had to endure in their childhoods.
Glad Paul Butcher and Victoria Justice decided to hang out together instead of appearing in this Hallmark movie

@@foxfairchild2458…..what an odd devil to advocate for
@@foxfairchild2458this is not a hill you want to die on, I promise.
@@mesocylon well why I meannn is there proof? I’m genuinely asking
I love how you can always tell a writing room had zero Ideas when the main character of the show is a TV producer or writer or something like that. They really did not know how to make a whole show about anything other than what they do all day 😅
Kind of how the main character in the books I’ve been reading lately are ALL writers….
When you brought up the trope of women falling, it reminded me of jamie French's "women protagonist fall compilations" in her movie reviews. 😂😂😂
YES! Love Jaime French ❤
Yesss! I love when she does those 😂
I can hear all the sound effects in my head from it 😂
I just keeps growing as she adds to it.
Same!!!!!!
After seeing the success of the iCarly reboot and Big Time Rush getting back together.. its very satisfying to see Jamie flop so hard with this movie
The writing for Chase/Zoey's relationship was traaaaash. She had better development/chemistry with a literal murderer than the guy we're supposed to be rooting for her to be with lmao
See if that was actually the plot, this wouldn’t be so ass
Ye why would Zoey not go to Hawai with him after prom, after breaking up with James? It was so damn stupid.
Thank you for watching this so we didn’t have to Nick!!! ❤❤❤
youre so welcome thank you for watching!!
I agree !! I refuse to play anything with Jamie unless it was that one show she did where her ugly cry face was constant!!
It’s interesting they had Logan (Matthew Underwood) and (Michael ) Christopher Massey due to their criminal past.
The Nostalgia Queer
I'm sad they did this and not Ned's Declassified. Like the Ned's gang adulting and parenting and giving tips would have been fantastic. I know they tried to pitch it but Nick turned their nose up
Zoey was more popular I guess
That's so stupid because the Ned's cast are already still friends and literally no one from the show has talked ill of the production so they could avoid drama. Plus it'd be so easy to have relevant modern jokes with the absurdism, making a survival tip like get 'roommates to make rent cheaper' and have Ned living with like 9 other dudes. How to keep yourself from becoming the bad guy on Twitter but it keeps happening to the cast until the final tip is to never post. Making cheap alcohol taste better where they add in a bunch of stuff to make a $3 wine taste good. How to hide the smell of weed from your landlord. They could've leaned into the millennial adulting challenges and that wouldve killed if there were good writers on board.
Zoey wasn’t popular, I mean I knew no one who loved the show. I wonder if it was more viewed in the states closer to where Jamie is from. (I am a born & raised New York City gal & it didn’t appeal too much here)
The only aspect of it I can see being intriguing as a tween is being the first few girls at a all boy school. I think they were hoping she could bring in more views due to her big sis drama.
I LOVE NDSSG!!! 😢😢😢
@@RogueAstro85that wouldve been great actually
The only joy I derived from this show was learning that Logan and Quinn not only lasted for years but they got married. Putting those two together was the smartest decision the show writers ever did. Was definitely supposed to just be a one-off thing but ended up becoming a fan favorite ship. Much like Chandler and Monica from _Friends._
I will never be able to take Jamie seriously after her involvement with her sister’s nightmare. She doesn’t even deserve to have this show as much of a flop as it is lmao
Plus what jamie and Brittany did to alexa (nicole) threatening her career life back in 2006 as a child star.Not surprised if the movie was a flop
I am still just very shocked they actually did ANY kind of reboot considering Jamie Lynn isnt the only cast member who did VERY hate-able actions .... MULTIPLE times. **cough cough** drunk driving abusive groomer Logan.
**cough cough** abusive Michael. 🙄
Yeah, I get what you mean. Kind of surprised the actors that weren't originally attached to the show agreed to appear in this, considering everything we know about these people...
people mostly wont care when theyre male
Wow I didn’t know that
So because they did bad things in their personal lives, they’re supposed to just give up their acting careers and never work again? I swear, you people are weird.
@@nevvins22 Why were you surprised? They’re actors, they still have to work.
“your mobile provider wants to invent an unbreakable smart phone the same way the cia wants to invent a less addictive crack cocaine” he popped off
Also, the literal-transparency is kind of a public privacy-violation. That's a one-way ticket to identity-theft.
I'm faceblind, but the only reason I can recognize Stacy is because her being run over in the finale was burned into my brain as a kid
They hated Stacey in the original series but now they’re best friends?!
“She tripped over her own clunky backstory” I swear your lines are the best🥴😂😭
the amount of songs in this movie was crazy. the montage of her scrolling through everyone’s socials ended and it IMMEDIATELY went into a different song like woah let me breathe
The writer seriously didn't have enough ideas for a full film so they padding the run time with cliche pop songs.
I wasn't really paying attention to the lyrics but I bet they are describing what's going on in the scene at the moment.
I’m so here for you dragging Jamie Lynn. I have a theory that Britney paid off the hairstylist on the set of Zoe 102 to make Jamie Lynn’s hair look as terrible as possible. Because there’s no other possible explanation for why they would’ve allowed those extensions to look that ragged.
Then it serves her right. But then why didn’t she notice and say something about it? You’d think anyone would. Speaking of hair why didn’t chase have his fro?
She looks…so uncomfortable. Whatever work she’s had done on her face is not presenting/aging well at all.
As a hairstylist when I was watching this movie it bothered me so much lol
@@Michaelabeauty96 oh, every time I see a clip from it I cringe lol Why they Gotta give everyone extensions halfway down their back when they clearly don’t have enough of their own hair to support them? It’s Hollywood, just get a nice expensive lace, front wig and save everyone the hassle. Although, if they have this much of a hard time making extensions look good I bet nobody on set knew how to handle a wig.
Fun fact: not too long ago, Nickelodeon posted a video of the Zoey 102 cast reflecting on their favorite moments from the original series. If you’re familiar enough with Zoey 101 to recall those moments, you’ll notice that, in a blatant display of spite towards Alexa Nikolas and Paul Butcher for calling out Jamie Lynn Spears for her… everything, really, any clips from the show featured in the video where Nicole or Dustin were originally present in the scene were edited so that they’re cropped out of the shot.
Tellingly, Lola wasn’t cropped out of scenes she appeared in even though Victoria Justice didn’t come back for Zoey 102 either. Hell, Zoey and Nicole’s original roommate Dana is still shown in these clips despite Kristin Herrera leaving the show after Season 1.
Once again, this company shows that, when given the choice, they will side with the oppressors over the victims.
why did they decided to reboot it after all the drama around that show. Dan Schneider has caused so much controversy and damage to people who worked for him that it’s impossible to separate him from his work.
Well, iCarly managed it, so maybe they thought they could pull it off. It didn’t work, but I can see why they thought it was possible.
@@mollypocrass4562I watched the last three seasons of OG icarly few weeks ago and the only way I can describe it how chaotic and lol random it is. The new series doesn’t capture any of that chaotic energy OG icarly had. And to be honest, no disrespect to Miranda, Jerry and the rest of the cast, it doesn’t translate well if it doesn’t have that energy. It’s like yeah the weird, borderline innuendo is gone but that’s what made it so bad it’s good.
They should’ve never touched anything that was made by Schneider in the first place.
Desperation ✨
Because despite what you think, people love these shows and the people who wanted to continue the shows weren’t all that hurt
@@BabyGirlTiny and I understand that fully and I don’t disagree with you but many reboots struggle with finding their identity (as in are they made for me the person who grew up with that show or my kids who have never heard of the show in the first place)
Zoey 101 and icarly were made to appeal to the kids of the millennial generation (ie me) not the next generation. So it doesn’t make sense to reboot it or return to it again if it was absolutely an absolutely wanted one (and it really wasn’t because of all the behind the scenes stuff with Alexa and Jamie Lynn)
All lot of Nickelodeon live shows are pretty bad so it’s not just this one however I really don’t think it’s a smart idea to reboot something from a problematic individual so that another problematic person can get money after her golden goose left.
You can enjoy the show all you want and you can acknowledge that it came from a problematic person too. I just don’t like Nickelodeon firing foot man for being a abusive person but still finding ways to use his work to create nostalgia bait for their streaming service. Either find different creators to work with or find something else to reboot (like Ned’s Declassified still holds up). But Hollywood has to Hollywood.
I feel like this movie only happened because Jamie Lynn would not stop harassing them about bringing it back because she’s delusional and never got past the fact that she ruined her chance at a career in entertainment before she really started.
From what I’ve seen, her life revolves around being petty that people don’t put her on the same pedestal as Britney, because she’s done literally nothing to earn a pedestal. And then she helped abuse Britney to give herself a power trip.
Now she doesn’t have the same hold in Britney’s life, so she scrambling for any chance of getting noticed by the public eye to “prove” to all us haters that she was the hidden star in the family all along.
Even the movie plays off as the actors having midlife crisis’s and trying to relive the glory days of being “famous”. They were all kid actors that didn’t break out into mainstream media as they grew up, so their acting is still as bad as when they were child actors. But I still feel like the ones that came back, only did it to get Jamie Lynn to shut up.
Nicole , chase and Micheal carried the show and their acting was good as a child for their age. Jamie on the other hand acting wasn’t good even though she was the main lead girl but her personality was boring. The kid show was based on nepotism anyway in which Jamie was a bully and tried everything she could to not let other child star grow .
@@sarasalone3060Jamie Lynn wasn’t acting. She was just playing herself
The Clumsy Successful Woman Trope got me thinking how Hollywood has this aversion of portraying actual regular ppl who aren't on high positions in companies or have their own businesses. And If a person is financially struggling in a story then it's always in a stylish huge loft in NY while also never really doing their jobs.
I think this Clumsy Successful Woman Trope is one of the ways Hollywood tries to have their cake and eat it as well by making the female character living out the mythical American dream while also trying to make her relatable to audiences.
But I think I speak for everyone when I say if you show me a woman who's a CEO wearing designer clothing complaining about being single, living in a huge home in downtown of a metropolis, but also have her trip and fall on flat surfaces, she's still not gonna be relatable.
This was such a nothing movie, I couldn't wait to hear your commentary ❤️
very well said, and thank you!!!
i hate the trope of “i’m gonna go to the wedding with a date to show them how well i’m doing!!” because i feel like it puts such pressure on people (especially young women) to find relationships. it really pushes the narrative that if u aren’t in a relationship by a certain point, there is something wrong with you and people should pity you and worry about you.
My husband and I watched a couple episodes of the original on Netflix to see if we felt nostalgic and WOW, it was bad lmao
Season 1 is bad, it got better as it went though. Zoey never got better though lol she was always the worst actress.
@@Gamelover254 I 100% agree
I was so disgusted when I rewatched the girls basketball team episode again and there was a close up shot panning up zoeys body while she was wearing a tight tank top and shorts. So many terrible things that went over our heads
@@nadjiao1832 that was one of the episodes we watched. I didn't notice that shot but I definitely noticed the feet shot in the episode right after
@@jordanleighwheatleyWouldn't be a Dan Schneider show without gratuitous shots of feet. He's like the evil version of Quentin Tarantino.
I wasn’t gonna watch this movie because of all the stuff that happened to Alexa Nikolas, so thank you for reviewing it for me!
There's no way to make a reboot work for Zoey 101 because anyone who cared about the Spears sisters at all now knows Jamie is literally evil. There's nothing to make us root for her.
I feel sorry for her. She probably felt very unheard and left to her own devices, and hence resentful, while her sister had her issues. I also don't think her sister is a reliable narrator. But Jamie has zero acting or singing talent and no natural charisma like her sister used to have.
I honestly can't imagine how awful it would be if, while I was imprisoned unfairly and against my will for over a decade, my own sister not only did not do anything to help me, but even made money publishing my story. I know my sister would never do that, but honestly, if she did, I would no longer consider her my sister.
Britney is extremely forgiving, since they have supposedly made up now, because yeah, I don’t think I could get past that betrayal.
Also, did they really bring Matthew Underwood back?! He was arrested back in 2012 when he was 22 and police found him with a 17 year old.
Oh Lord 😢
That happened. Same with Christopher Massey he had domestic abuse charge
Oh wow. Gross to both!
@@christineawambu9303 I didn't know about that one and now I'm even more disgusted by this movie. Thank you for educating me!
We just can't have nice things. Nickelodeon hates us
i feel like it's worth pointing out that both chase and zoeys characters felt the need to literally get fake partners of fear that theyd be seen as "lesser than" or like pitiable simply for being single bc that shit should've stayed in the 2000s.
Jamie Lynn looks like Ted Cruz cosplaying as Britney Spears.
Omg now I can't unsee it 😂😂😂
😭 the accuracy
THIS. THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN THINKING. I’m so glad u said it lmfao
Great now that image is burned in my skull 😂😂😂😂😂
She aged horribly
Jaime Lynn Spears is supposed to be thirty?? I don't know if it's her styling or whatever preventative botox she did but she looks older than everyone else on the show
I'm getting real sick of nickelodeon and disney remaking and rebooted shows and movies from years ago. It already has gotten old, yet somehow they still keep doing it. These networks never learn.
People loved the shows and want to see what their favorite characters are doing as adults I mean we’re older but yea they hardly ever get it right
I still haven’t gotten around to watching the icarly Reboot is it good? can someone spoil it and tell me if it’s worth watching? I don’t wanna waste my time 💀
@@Isabel-sr8ep it's definitely worth watching. It's a good example of a proper reboot. I'm already on season 3.
17:56 “if you do this for me, I’ll get you on the show.” So basically, Zoey broke Data protection laws which would cause her company a multimillion dollar fine (assuming the states laws are similar to GDPR), to use the personal information she gathered on someone through business means for a non business matter. She abused her power as someone who works “in the industry” to convince someone to do her a personal favour, which for all he knows could include physical intimacy of varying degrees, all in exchange for the promise that she will pull some strings and get him on a show? Dan Schineider may not have been directly involved in this project, but whoever was clearly has an equally disgusting look at the world.
A round of applause for Nick for beating the ban (🤞) 👏👏👏👏🧡
Why was it called zoey 102 instead of zoey 201? Usually 201 would be a next level course, so it sounds like they’ve moved forward at least.
Did the character of Zoey move forward though? She seems like one of those bitter reminiscent people who peaked in high school and long for the “glory days”. The title is stupid but it may be apt lol
"and so, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, my client could not possibly have committed this crime, for he is AN ACTOR"
I think it would have been funnier if he were specifically the actor who played the murderer in crime recreation videos a la Unsolved Mysteries.
@@Sky-bx9mnI really thought that that was where they were headed with that joke 😂
nick is so real for saying we all want a neds declassified reboot
My partner doesn't want a big fancy wedding, I kind of want one, but I also have conflicting views of marriage. But I would never go "oh yeah let's go get married at your old high school!" like... gross.
I knew this movie was going to flop but I didn't expect the plot and acting to be THAT bad 😭😭😭 Jamie doesn't even look like Zoey anymore, she looks like she could be her grandmother with how bad she's aged. I'm only a couple years younger than her and have multiple chronic illnesses that caused me premature aging and we look 2 decades apart 💀 I guess being cranky and abusive to everyone around you ages you. Even Britney looks 10 years younger than her with all the stress she's been put through. I just can not take her seriously knowing what she's done, and then on top of it doesn't even look reminiscent of the character she's supposed to be playing. Alexa Nikolas on the other hand hasn't aged a day 😍
i respect you for fearlessly noting their puffy faces and jaime’s astonishing capacity to morph into a muppet when her curls fall 🫡
Thank you for pointing out the alcoholism.
It probably sounds insincere to read comments like these, but genuinely your videos can change my mood from bad to good. I appreciate your content!! Thanks Nick!
It’s wild that their nostalgia of PCA wasn’t ruined by the fact that the school was a total scam and almost ruined their education - if I went to a high school and they were stealing my money and unaccredited I would not be sitting around in my house wearing a PCA shirt on the regular nor would I be getting married in the old building 🤣
I still remember thinking Zoey herself was the most boring character on the show, and it was all her nutterbutter friends that were the highlight. Most people I state this opinion to tend to agree, so I feel like this is a near-universal opinion. I especially loved Quinn and Michael, and Mark Del Figalo and his ridiculous name are still a meme among me and my sister all these years later.
Was Zoey even clumsy in the original series? I don’t remember any of her character traits
To my knowledge, no. The only big traits I remember her having was: trying to make PCA semi-accomendating for the girls and dating 2 boys.
Shut up1!1!1!1 don’t you know she’s supposed to be quirky and notliketheothergirls!1!11😡😝😎🥶🤯😱
She was also supposed to be crafty, creative and stylish or whatever. They had plots in the show where she was designing backpacks and embellished dresses. She also designed the Drake Bell shirt in the crossover episode. I think it would have made more sense for her to do something fashion related as an adult. I'm not defending her character though. She was my least favourite and was always supposed to be the cool girl and the one who would make the sensible decisions. Only her friends were clumsy or quirky.
I always come back to you to familiarize myself with television and film atrocities, as well as enjoy the occasional Shane Dawson diss. Your clever commentaries and sharp wit are always more than welcomed and thoroughly appreciated. ❤️
It's funny how the ICarly revival did it right and was able to prove that older shows can adjust (albeit rocky at first) to the older fans. They're on Season 3 and I hope they get a Season 4.
I'm so happy to see somebody else loves the iCarly reboot 😩 everybody always talks about how bad it is but I find the humor and storylines so similar to the og, I love it so much.
@@aroorooroo We're definitely not alone, I've seen it trend on Twitter every single episode for days.
Wow, i had no idea the ending was so mean-spirited, given the actor who played zoeys brother hasnt had great things to say about her since the original show
🍵 ☕️ Interesting....
Nick was just joking I think. The show was only revealing that the pretend boyfriend was the malibu killer after all
@littlemissmello ah, ty. Thats what i get for listening while doing work
@@Inthepotwithdiogenes i have not seen zoey 102, just watching this while cooking haha, no worries
I saw Jamie Lynn debut on All That, and even though she was just a child I could already tell she wouldn't be shit. I was like "This girl thinks she's giving Amanda Bynes, but it's way more 'Girl who will grow up to be nice to my face but a bitch behind the scenes'"
I don't have much against her but I think she got her roles on nepotism. She just doesn't have natural flow to her acting and is more like a stage school girl
Haven't finished the video yet, and I know this is nitpicking, but shouldn't the the show be called Zoey 201? Like if a class has the course code 101, the 1 at the beginning implies that it's at an introductory level, and with each year, the first number increase by one, while the last numbers organize the course within that grade/year. Isn't 201 the obvious next step to 101 if we're talking about a change in time? 102 is a lateral move! It doesn't make any sense!
❤😂😂😂 Love your comment! maybe it was their only witty moment in all of this, since she never quite moved on
It was called 101 because it was her dorm number :3 and her house address in the movie is 102
@@communitysaint Mmm fine, I guess it kinda makes sense. But it seems like a mised opportunity. I forgot her dorm number was 101, and I feel like the 101 in relation to school courses makes more sense since the show takes place at a boarding school.
I liked it lol not for Zoe or Chase, but Quinn and Logan. I loved their story back with 1 oh one. So it was nice to watch them be older and get married. I also did like the whole strangler twist at the end lol
I'm so glad someone else here loved Logan and Quinn as a couple too lol
Also a show about millennial mom would’ve been interesting. She could’ve drawn from her own experiences.
she could’ve taken from the millennial experience but it wouldn’t have been realistic to her, she’s mega rich compared to almost every millennial out there.
others around her same age are struggling for rent or to even get their own place, she had nowhere near the same problems.
no hate to you, just putting it out there.
That would’ve been soooo much more interesting
Her character isn’t a mom even though she’s a mom in real life
I just feel so safe watching Nick's videos cuz regardless of how bad my day was, he can always at LEAST make me chuckle.
Hey Nick, I’m having a shit day. Can’t describe how much better it made me feel when I saw you posted this video. Now I can forget about life for 32 minutes and 37 seconds. Love you and love what you do. Your work is important ♥️ People need it
The idea of marrying someone from my HS sounds nightmarish. Like….
Edit: Marrying someone AT my high school sounds even MORE nightmarish.
Knowing what I know about Alexa Nikolas’ experience on the show, I’m so ready for you to rip into this one…
I cannot NOT see Ted Cruz in drag when I look at her now
You know how some people get older and flourish while others just look washed up and tired? Jamie Lynn is the latter.
I was a zoey 101 hater as a kid. And this movie just proves I’ve been wise 😂😂😂
SAME LMAO
So was i.
i hate the possiblities that self-driving cars have opened up for romcoms
I'm so distracted by that see thru phone. It's less Zoey and more Zenon.
Jamie Lynn Spears is holding onto her Zoe 101 character for dear life. We all moved on girl, she should too.
I watched the original show as it was airing. The only things I can recall about it at age 30 are: 1) The theme song slapped. I downloaded a low quality clip mp3 off limewire; and 2) As a hormonal teenager I loved the idea of being one of the new girls at a previously all boys school. For those reasons, I'm glad I skipped this movie. Sorry you had to endure copyright hell for this!
“Frozen babies bobbing around like the boba in your bubble tea” NICK DFKLANSLSA 💀💀💀
NICK the ending parody you did of starships has me crying laughing 😂 I can’t believe they did that though. Imagine being the actor who played her brother seeing that

30:40 That's it. This Pennyswise comment is the type of joke that keeps me coming back to this channel. It's golden 😂
i spit my drink out when u said that dustin got kidnapped at walmart😂 need to see THAT movie
As a girl with constant manic pixie broken ankles and bruises, I will say I know it's overdone and kind of toxic but I've always appreciated that being clumsy was made into something "quirky" and "cute" because I'm stuck like this either way but at least this way media seems to have brainwashed people into finding it charming when I topple over and fall down into their stuff or spill shit everywhere and I genuinely think it's gotten me out of trouble here and there 😅 I wouldn't fight for it to stay but I can't deny it's proven useful to the clumsy bitches of reality
My issue with these reboots is that ending up with your high school crush is like the least relatable thing ever. Whenever Iearn that people are high school sweethearts, my immediate reaction is sadness, not awe. So the idea of watching people who peaked in high school continues to not be able to get over high school just doesn't appeal to me.
Your savagery is so therapeutic to me 😍I needed this belly laugh scathing comedy
This is the earliest I’ve been to watch one of your videos and I’m so glad it happens to be the one where you drag Jamie Lynn, today was in fact a good day
didnt know this was going to be a thing, sad that I do now- but at least I had Nick to guide me through the tragedy
i didnt know quinn's actress was a bully omg. that sucks because she's the best character
in your mind, they're still the adorable, promising older kids that you wanted to be like, going to the school of your dreams. not the puffy failed adults you're a little scared you're turning into. it's so hard to watch
Nick referencing Sloan is everything
Your rant comparing clear phones, boba tea, and the the titanic… I’m subscribing.
I remember Zoey being the absolute worst lead character on any show I watched back then. I just remember everyone else idolizing her just for existing and being pretty, but she really only just walked around and was popular. She was mean to the weird characters a lot, and spoiled the few times something didn't go her way. Nice to know THAT much didn't change in 15 years.
I remember Unfabulous and Ned's Declassified having much more relatable characters
That’s because Jamie Lynn was literally just playing herself. She wasn’t acting. That’s why the character of Zoey sucked
OMG I wish I would've found you years ago. Just watched some of your quarantine content and it was so funny!! Love your sense of humor and sass. Thank you for jumping on these grenades for us 🫡
Very very happy I didn't watch that movie, but got to see it with you! ♥️ what a ride. I loved that show as a kid, but after everything that came out... It's just a cash grab for Jamie Lynn. There was absolutely no heart in the script or anything. Thank you for taking your time and making this commentary/ review. ♥️
I've always thought of the "smart and clumsy" / "smart and spacey" / "smart and weird" tropes as representative of the symptoms of ADHD and ASD, which can include dyspraxia.
It is a symptom of my cptsd. I don’t think that makes me relatable though.
Since they tried so hard to make it look more "adult" you know what would have been iconic? To make the reason she broke up with puffy face back in the days the fact that she got pregnant 🤪 and make it about how difficult it was to have a baby in her teens and that's why she kinda detached herself from her friends group
Yess only zaddy nick can deliver us a tasteful clip breakdown of this atrocious reboot 😂💅
Still the only creator I have notifications on for 💚 So maybe the real “reboot” was the friends we made along the way?
I said it yesterday and I’ll say it again today. Nick is the funniest person on the internet. Prove me wrong. You literally can’t.
Yayy i can cancel my doordash order, since this is going to provide all necessary nourishment ❤
Thanks for watching this for us, Nick! That seemed truly awful!
Damn, even if Jamie wasn't such a female dog, this movie would still be boring af, even as someone who grew up with the original series.
Also, loved the review, Nick! So glad you managed to get it back up after the Paramount bs.
Since Nick brought up the fact that Victoria “I think we all sing” Justice being the most successful from Zoey 101, I’d like to take the opportunity to also remind everyone that Oscar-Nominated Austin Butler (from Elvis) was on this show for the last few seasons and was zoey’s boyfriend for a bit.
That’s all. Thanks for coming to my TED talk 😅
As a kid raised on public (free) TV, I can't help but find these Disney/Nick shows fascinating, especially as reboots. I like how I literally didn't know Britney's little sister had her own show until this year. I had only heard:
1. Jamie existed
2. Had a baby young
3. Something something angst in the shadow of sis something
she had another show as a kid too and also a music "career" that Britney tried to help get going. While I disagree with her decision to write a book, I feel sorry for her. Being the other sibling of someone with a mental illness is not easy but it's not something that is often spoen about or where support is given.
I love a new Clip Breakdown to watch on my night off, getting ready to go out to dinner 💅
If baby Toast makes an appearance I will simply be beside myself 💜 hope all DiRama club members are feeling happy and healthy today!!
