I liked that she said, “Making love to you was never second best,” after the whole Zoey/Simon/Max of it all. I liked the idea that the first song we ever heard in the pilot was “It’s the End of the World as We Know It,” and this song, “l’ll stop the world and melt with you.” I thought there was some nice bookend world specificity to both of those. We might have danced around a few others. Obviously, there are a lot of love songs out there. Were there other songs that were in consideration for that moment, or was it always “I Melt With You”?įor some reason, that was the song I kept going back to. TVLINE | Zoey’s heart song was so exuberant, so joyous and free.

It just adds new interesting layers of complexity and complication. But I certainly think that it opens up a whole new area of stories to tell, stories about him experiencing heart songs, stories about her having to help him with heart songs, stories about him hearing her heart songs and what that means for their relationship. So how will this impact her, and how will she feel about Max having all this insight into her? TVLINE | Zoey is sometimes a guarded person. I don’t want to clarify that entirely yet.

TVLINE | To clarify, both Max and Zoey have powers at the end of the finale? Or is it that the powers have transferred from Zoey over to Max? And certainly, from a romantic comedy perspective, to be able to play stories where these two people are in a relationship, but they also know exactly what the other person is thinking about, felt like ripe ground for storylines. And I also like the idea that Max could know what’s going on in Zoey’s head as well. So just in terms of thinking how could Zoey and Max work long-term, for me, it was important for Max to have an understanding of what it’s like for Zoey to experience heart songs. I think in any relationship in life, there needs to be some degree of equality in order for the relationship to work. So we liked the idea of being able to do our own version of that.īut the other thing that we had really established a lot in Season 1, especially in Season 2, as well, was this idea that Max feels like there’s an inequality in their relationship, because Zoey has the ability to hear what’s going on in his heart, in his brain, and he doesn’t get to do the same with her. Certainly, when you think of superhero origin stories, there seems like there’s always a place in the superhero shows where they find somebody else who also has powers. We had talked about this pretty early on in Season 1, the idea of Max getting the powers at some point. I’m always trying to think of new ways that we can twist and spin and do new things with the powers. TVLINE | What excited you about this twist with the powers and what it opens up for a potential Season 3? (And for the latest intel on Zoey’s Season 3 odds, keep tabs on our 2021 Renewal Scorecard.) Then as Zoey declared that she was all in, she started to break out in a rousing performance of Modern English’s “I Melt With You,” shocking a bewildered Max.īelow, showrunner Austin Winsberg breaks down the big powers twist and what it means for Max and Zoey’s romantic future. Max explained that he and Rose broke things off because they could both tell his mind was on someone else. However, when Max unexpectedly showed up at the park where Zoey was sitting forlornly, it was obvious the ode was about her. But when she got there, she heard Max sing “When a Man Loves a Woman” and left without saying a word, assuming the tune was about Rose. So Zoey decided to rush to the airport to stop Max from leaving for New York City with Rose. Prior to that cliffhanger, Zoey and Simon had split up, and then the titular gal got a dream visit from her dad, who encouraged her to take risks and really live life. Oh, how the tables have turned! Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist wrapped up its second season on Sunday with a heart song - but this time, it was Zoey doing the singing! And on the receiving end of her musical declaration of love was Max, who could suddenly hear Zoey’s heart song! Warning: The following contains major spoilers for Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist.
