Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist is an American jukebox musical comedy-drama television series created by Austin Winsberg that premiered on January 7, 2020, on NBC. The series stars Jane Levy as Zoey Clarke, a software developer who discovers she has the ability to hear the innermost thoughts of people as songs. Each episode features multiple song-and-dance numbers that develop the storyline, with each cast member singing their own character's songs. Except for the season 2 song "Crimson Love," the soundtrack consists entirely of previously written popular songs. [1] The series also stars Skylar Astin, Alex Newell, John Clarence Stewart, Peter Gallagher, Mary Steenburgen, Lauren Graham, Andrew Leeds, Alice Lee, Michael Thomas Grant and Kapil Talwalkar, and Bernadette Peters. In June 2020, the series was renewed for a second season which premiered on January 5, 2021.[2][3] In June 2021, the series was canceled after two seasons.[4]
In September 2021, it was announced that streaming service The Roku Channel officially commissioned a two-hour holiday film.[5][6] The film was released on December 1, 2021.[7] In addition to songs performed on Zoey's Extraordinary Christmas, the second original song in the series — "North Star", written by Mary Steenburgen, Caitlyn Smith and Troy Verges and sung by Tori Kelly — played during the end credit sequence.[8]
