December TV Finales - Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist (Zoey's Extraordinary Christmas) - Film

Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist ended back in May, however Stan just released the 90 (odd) minute Christmas movie.

Jane Levy continues as lead Zoey Clarke. Along with Skylar Astin, Alex Newell, John Clarence Stewart, Peter Gallagher, Mary Steenburgen, Lauren Graham, Andrew Leeds, Alice Lee, Michael Thomas Grant, and Kapil Talwalkar. 

Apparently if this film is successful, it could lead to more episodes.

The film was released on December 1, 2021. In addition to songs performed on Zoey's Extraordinary Christmas, a second original song for this series was composed — "North Star", written by Mary Steenburgen, Caitlyn Smith and Troy Verges and sung by Tori Kelly, and played during the end credit sequence.


I don't love Christmas movies (as most regular readers will know) however this was a sweet, yet inconclusive ending to a series that had already technically ended.

Ray Donovan will also get a wrap up film next month. However with the idea of if this was a hit, more episodes will follow? Sadly Zoey's was always a bit of a one trick pony. Season one was awesome. Season two started strong, ended weak.

In the middle of the month we are meant to feel joy, I may choose Die Hard over the sentimental favourites like this. Also Mo (Alex Newell) was overly irritating in this episode/wrap film.

Zoey also kinda had unresolved love triangle things going on. However it was nice to see Vancouver on the small screen again. I miss my Vancouver days. Until next. We have Total Control and Succession all wrapping soon. What a strong finish to 2021!
