In an unexpected announcement for fans, NBC has officially canceled Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist after two seasons. There was talk of transitioning it to Peacock for its third season, but that plan didn’t come to fruition.

However, there’s still discussion of getting it picked up by another network. Austin Winsberg, the creator, took to Twitter to try and rally the fans to get the hashtag #saveZoeysplaylist trending.

The musical dramedy follows Jane Levy as Zoey, a computer coder who miraculously wakes up wielding the strange power of being in tune with the feelings of those around her, through song.

Alongside Levy, it boasts other large names like Skylar Astin, Alex Newall, Mary Steenburgen, Alice Lee, Lauren Graham, and John Clarence Stewart.

It remained one of the last shows on NBC to await its renewal or cancellation fate. Manifest and Good Girls are still waiting for the news about their future, which will likely come once their respective seasons come to a close. Manifest airs its season 3 finale tomorrow, June 10, while Good Girls will wrap up later this summer.

Winsberg created the show as a personal tribute to his father who passed away from a rare neurological disorder similar to that of Zoey’s father. And in a show that connected with the world on a personal level through basic human emotions– love and grief –we’re sad to have to say goodbye to an amazing cast and series.

But, perhaps it doesn’t have to be goodbye, and maybe we can make it a “see you later.” After all, it’s not a want, it’s a necessity. The fans deserve an answer to the show’s biggest cliffhanger. What will Max do with his new power?!

So don’t hesitate, unite, and go hashtag the heck on Twitter.

    Is ‘Alaska Daily’ Renewed for a Second Season?

    Published

    Alaska Daily Recap Season 1 Episode 5 I Have No Idea What You're Talking About, Eileen

    Alaska Daily is one of the best and most refreshing shows coming out of this fall/winter TV cycle, with Hilary Swank as Eileen Fitzgerald, a disgraced journalist who finds a new home in Alaska, bringing coverage to the often overlooked (purposefully ignored) stories of murderer indigenous women alongside her partner-in-crime, Roz Friendly played by Grace Dove. 

    With the season finale scheduled to air on ABC on Thursday, March 30, marking the season’s 11th episode, many fans are wondering if the network will renew the series for Season 2 and allow audiences to follow Eileen’s adventures of pursuing truth and justice on a local scale. 

    So far, there’s no word from ABC on whether or not a renewal is on the books, though a verdict is expected to come sometime after the Alaska Daily Season 1 finale airs. 

    But while the series has amassed a loyal and dedicated following—with many of you reaching out to me and noting that you wish the show received more publicity and promotion from the network itself—there might not be enough love for ABC to justify a renewal.

    The series hasn’t been able to build up the audience or gain the momentum it needs in its short primetime run, which honestly, is a shame because of the important storytelling and refreshing and diverse cast propelling meaningful conversations and calling for change and action.

    As Deadline reports, the series has “sizable internal support but has not been able to break through in a meaningful way, making a Season 2 renewal unlikely.”

    Still, I remain hopeful that ABC will consider a renewal as ratings, though down a bit from the series premiere, bring in about 2.7 million viewers weekly, according to TVSeriesFinale.

    When a decision about the fate of the series does eventually come down, we’ll update this article accordingly!

    When Is Season 3 of ‘Ginny and Georgia’ Coming Out?

    When Will Season 3 of Ginny and Georgia Premiere

    Ginny and Georgia centers on the heartwarming yet extremely complicated bond between a mother and her daughter after they put down roots in a New England town. 

    With so many compelling storylines and incredible characters of all ages, it’s no wonder that the coming-of-age drama has become a fan favorite among Netflix audiences. 

    The second season of Ginny and Georgia premiered on Jan. 5, 2023, which means that a third season is likely far off, especially considering Brianne Howey, who plays Georgia, just announced her first pregnancy, which will possibly delay filming.

    Of course, Netflix has to renew the series for a third season. As of March 28, 2023, it has not given the show a green light for additional episodes. 

    Fans shouldn’t be too worried, however, as a renewal is very likely considering the show’s performance, the rabid fan base, and the fact that season 3 ended on such a cliffhanger—Netflix knows that fans will be clamoring for another season to see how the situation resolves itself. 

    As for a premiere date, well, there isn’t one just yet. Until the series is renewed and production begins, it’s a bit too difficult to come up with a date for new episodes. The season could likely arrive in February 2024 if we’re looking at the previous premieres for both seasons 1 and 2, which both debuted at the start of 2021 and 2023, respectively.

    But with Howey’s pregnancy thrown into the mix, that could delay things a bit, and it wouldn’t be the worst thing if the series returned during the summer when there’s a lull in content and fans are seeking out something to binge-watch and get invested in. 

    Either way, when Netflix makes an official decision, you’ll be the first to know as we’ll update this article accordingly! 

    Until then, you can gear up for the final season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Riverdale, and Firefly Lane
