As we approach an unorthodox TV season (thanks, COVID!), we are starting to get some news about upcoming seasons. Derek Hough is returning to Dancing With the Stars in a mysterious role, Ken Jennings is joining Jeopardy fulltime, etc. And though it’s already slotted to be a midseason replacement, there’s some news regarding our favorite show about a woman who can hear people’s inner most thoughts as songs due to a magical MRI machine!
Four cast members have been promoted to regulars for Season 2!
Andrew Leeds (David), Alice Lee (Emily), Michael Thomas Grant (Leif) and Kapil Talwalkar (Tobin) have all been promoted from recurring cast to regular cast members. Jane Levy (Zoey), Skylar Astin (Max), Alex Newell (Mo), John Clarence Stewart (Simon) and Mary Steenbergen (Maggie) continue as regulars with Lauren Graham (Joan) still billed as “special guest star”.
According to the article, it seems David and Emily will be dealing with parenthood and grief throughout the second season. I am intrigued – coupled with my observations of them in the first season, this will either make them stronger or blow them apart. The article also mentions that Leif will have a new role at SPRQ Point but doesn’t mention what will happen to Tobin. My guess is that Zoey moves into Joan’s role and Leif moves into her role once Joan assumes control of the company while Danny Michael Thomas is lying low.
No mention of Peter Gallagher but I hope he can still come back from time to time as Zoey’s guardian angel of sorts.
Remember how I said it was a shame that Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist wasn’t nominated for an Emmy? I was wrong – it was! Mandy Moore won an Emmy for her choreography! Congratulations, Mandy! It is a well-deserved win!
What do you think of this Zoey season 2 news? What do you want to see for these characters? And what songs do you want Mandy to have to choreograph to next?
