Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist centers on Zoey Clarke, a whip-smart computer coder forging her way in San Francisco. After an unusual event, Zoey, who always preferred podcasts over pop songs, suddenly starts to hear the innermost wants, thoughts and desires of the people around her – her family, co-workers and complete strangers – through popular songs. At first, she questions her own sanity, but after getting some guidance from her musically adept neighbor, Mo, and making a breakthrough with her ailing father, Zoey soon realizes this unwanted curse may just be an incredibly wonderful gift as she connects with the world like never before.

The series stars Jane Levy (Suburgatory) as the titular character, Skylar Astin (Pitch Perfect) as Max, Alex Newell (Glee) as Mo, Peter Gallagher (The O.C.) as Mitch and John Clarence Stewart (Luke Cage) as Simon along with Academy Award-winning actress Mary Steenburgen (Melvin and Howard) as Maggie.
