Here at Conventional Relations, we love Nickelodeon. We also have a thing for celebrating 15 year anniversaries!
The year 2005 was a truly magical time for live action Nickelodeon shows. Each week we were treated to new episodes of “Drake and Josh,” “Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide,” “Unfabulous,” and the subject of today’s read: “Zoey 101.”
Brought to life by “The Amanda Show” creator Dan Schneider, “Zoey 101” was adapted as a starring vehicle for actress/musician Jamie Lynn Spears, who starred in the eighth and ninth seasons of “All That” (I think her sister might have also been moderately famous or something like that…)
The show premiered in January of 2005 and won the hearts of many with it’s breezy charm, over-the-top humor, and likable ensemble of characters. For four seasons we saw Zoey and the gang go through a plethora of wacky situations at Pacific Coast Academy. Along the way, we also got to watch the frustratingly slow burn that was Zoey and Chase’s romance. As much as we all rooted for Chase to get out of the friend zone, the journey was relentless and it took a whole 60 episodes for it to actually happen.
The series might have ended in 2008, but love for it still remains strong from both the viewers and actors who grew up with it. The internet buzzed last year when most of the cast had an impromptu reunion dinner shortly after Jamie Lynn Spears announced that she was interested in making a reboot of Zoey 101. While any actual updates of a reboot have yet to be seen, the cast did reunite to film an episode of “All That” which is slated to air in March.
We got to chat with Sean Flynn who played Chase to talk about his memories working on the show, reuniting with his former co-stars, and what he is currently up to.
