Shark Bytes

I think a couple of episodes STUNK!!Like When The webcam Was on when zoey was in England she had a webcam only in the boys room to see and just out of nowhere that michael turns on the webcam when chase said he loves her"SHOCK!!!"And When the ghost of charles galloway comes to get them and that nut zoey sais she broke her ankle would'nt she be in more pain!!!!!

This show jumped the shark the moment it aired. The acting is terrible and the plots predictable. I used to love Nickelodeon because of their quality cartoons, but it seems today they could care less about animation.

'Zoey 101' JTSed the very 1st time I heard 1 one of the kids order a coffee. What kind of teen orders an older type drink like coffee? They should've stuck to milk! I'm 45 years old, and can't stand coffee. Peace.

What's wrong with Britney Spears Junior? Zoey 101 sucks!!!

This is probably the worst show on Nick. Whenever I'm browsing the channels and it comes on, I quickly yell "OH MY GOD CHANGE IT CHANGE IT CHANGE IT", steal the remote, and switch to some soothing advertisments.

I don't understand how anyone can find this show enjoyable. I think it's geared towards my age group, but the dialogue, story lines, and basically the whole thing is so simple a 6-year-old could see what happens next.
The kids are rich. The kids go to a boarding school. The kids have 'adventures' which is basically pitting the guys against the girls and then them realizing 'hey, we're all people, let's stop fighting!' Everything about the show seems to be set in a fantasy world where no one actually goes to class or has homework. Oh, they can also make 100 backpacks by themselves in one day and then sell them for over $30. Yeah, right.

it's bad enough when you get pregnant at 16, its even worse when your Britney's sister.

Ha...okay, I'm an adult who watched this Zoey 101 show out of curiosity really, and I'm glad you kids also saw through the lameness of the plots, etc.

It's too bad some of the young actors in this show will probably grow up regretting they ever had anything to do with it. At least they made some money to hopefully put them through a REAL college later!

As for Jamie Lynn: she was obviously spoiled from birth and just wanted a kid of her OWN to spoil.

Good luck to them all.

As for the producers of the show: I hope they read all of these justifiably critical comments and realize that kids are smarter than they (the producers) think.

To that so-called "producer" Dan Schneider: he ought to quit show business and take a job driving a cab--just like he did in his cameo role in the final episode of Zoey 101!

I've seen this show a few times, and I think people are missing the point. The show shouldn't be canceled because of Jamie Lynn's pregnancy. The show should be canceled because it is a huge pile of trash (I decided against stronger language) I honestly don't buy the whole "teens are going to think it's ok to get pregnant" thing, because unless you're an idiot, and have no mind of your own, you aren't going to come to that conclusion. I was exposed to many things at a young age, maybe even a younger age than the Zoey 101 demographic, that I definitely wouldn't find age appropriate, and even though I am male and I, myself, can't get pregnant in any way shape or form, I'm pretty conservative in areas concerning the...process of making a child lol.

So please, let's keep this about the show, that being said.. It is cliche, predictable, very unrealistic, has some bad acting, and bad dialogue. I am not saying this show doesn't have some decent stuff here and there, but the majority of it is just like a very poorly written O.C. for ten year olds. I'm sorry to say I don't see how most kids will relate to the lives of a bunch of rich kids, who live in a very unrealistic boarding school, living very unrealistic lives. I don't think any of the characters are all that likeable, and some other minor stuff bugs me. For example, in the episodes I've seen, the name "PCA" is used in every other sentence in the show. This could just be me, but I don't remember ever referring to my school by it's name all the time, I called it "school"
Also why is EVERYTHING branded by the school as well? I mean I guess it's just a way of covering up brand labels that they can't show on tv for whatever reason, but it just bugs me to see them eating PCA Hamburgers on PCA plates, and washing it all down with their PCA water, as they head to class with their PCA backpacks, holding their PCA folders.

Also I didn't like how a lot of the problems on the show were fixed magically by Quinn's "Science" I'm kind of a technology enthusiast, and it just bothers me when she basically goes "by combining this cell phone with 5 paper clips and this laptop, I can create a laser that will work as a summoning beacon for Jesus who will come and grant all of our wishes with his powers!" that is of course a bit of an exaggeration lol but I just don't like the unrealistic aspect.

Ok, I'm done, I wrote WAY too much, but something about turning on the N and seeing them show 13 episodes of Zoey 101 just seems to make me wonder why. Even for a kids show, they can do better.

this show is about zoey, not jamie!! zoey didn't get pregnant jamie did! STOP talking about a pregnancy that has NOTHING to do with this tv show!!

Everyone on this show would have eventually been out of work anyway. Without the pregnancy, it might have lasted another season or two. Then it would've ended, and half the cast that no one cared about would have become drug addicts in 20 years.

Teenage Sex is gonna happen, no matter how much you shield them from it... might as well get them prepared for it early, this show is terrible, I agree, but the character is a good role model, not jamie lynn herself... I'm sick of all the stuck-up middle class families that try to shield their children from everything... you live life once, you make mistakes, and learn from them. Teens could learn that pregnancy is hell, and it's not a good thing at a young age, and just complicates things.

umm... i agree with most of you... chase should be the baby daddy for the show! that would be hilarious! i like the show but jamie is gonna turn out like her sister and doesnt have much talent... get over people... she got pregnant KNOWING that she was a role model to a bunch of little girls so get over it...

Yada Yada Yada, Jamie is pregnant...blah blah blah...
The producers could use her pregnancy in the show...has there ever been a teen-related show about teen pregnancy???
That would be insightful...or at least a good shot at being the first teen show ever to do such a thing.
Show jumped when Jamie came back from England and Chase went to England to see her and they tell each other their feelings on the webcam...lame...
Or that one character...can't stand her, forgot her name, but she has a bad lisp...yeah...she needs to go...

The April 2008 issue of Mad magazine has a funny parody ad for Zoey 101, calling it Zygote 101, even changing Nickelodeon's name to Stickyloadeon. Check it out. I forget what page it's on but it's worth a look.
