User blog:LuluTDFan/Defending Zoey.

Okay, so this is kind of a rant blog and I'm sorry for this since I don't like ranting a lot, but I really need to get this off of my chest.

Now, a lot of people have been ranting on and on about Zoey. Now, I don't care if you hate her or not, because your opinion is your opinion. I just want to counter what people are saying because I think some of them aren't really valid reasons to hate her.

' "Zoey only cares about Mike and only Mike."'' '''

I'm sorry, but that is such a lie. She has constantly proved to care about other people as well as Mike. In the first episode of TDRI she was worried about Staci drowning and even saved Mike too, because Staci dragged him under with her.

In the second episode of TDRI, she was seen to care for Brick and cared about his feelings. She said thank you to him and even sympathized for him because he was so embarassed.

In episode six of TDRI, Zoey is concerned for Lindsay's safety because she was taken away by Sasquatchanakwa. She also feels sympathy for Scott when he says that Dawn being eliminated was all his fault because he didn't see it coming.

In episode seven of TDRI, when Zoey, Anne Maria and Scott get separated from Mike and Cameron, she is worried about Anne Maria (who, might I add, is her enemy) when she is taken by Ezekiel. She also is relieved when they hear her screaming/cheering because they found her. She also salutes Brick in his departure from the show as a sign of respect.

Also, she has saved Cameron's life twice. Once in episode ten and in episode twelve.

So you can't say that Zoey only cares about Mike, because she doesn't.

' "Zoey has no personality whatsoever and her stereotype is a lie."'' '''

Okay, I get why people say her stereotype is lie, but if you can get past Noah being a "schemer" in TDI (which he wasn't) and Anne Maria being a Jersey Shore Reject (don't even know how they showed this in the actual show, but a lot of people still like her) then you can definitely get over Zoey being an Indie Chick.

Also, Zoey has definitely showed some personality. She's kind of like Beth in a way. Both are lonely (Zoey more than Beth, I think), sweet, nice, and friendly. Except Zoey shows more personality, such as being insecure (which I do consider some sort of personality).

' "Zoey is a hypocrite and she can't do anything for herself."'' '''

What? I'm pretty sure Zoey won the first challenge for her team in episode six and also almost won the challenge for herself in episode nine, ten, eleven AND twelve (if only Scott hadn't sabotaged her in episode's nine and eleven, then she probably would've won them and if Cameron's scrawny butt didn't need to be saved then should would've made it to the finals). So you technically can't say she can't do things for herself.

And, how exactly is Zoey a hypocrite? Because she said she loved odd-balls yet rejected Dawn and Dakota? Well, they're listed as her friends on the wiki and she technically didn't reject them. Just because Dawn creeped out Zoey and voted off Dakota doesn't mean she rejected them. Leshawna did the same thing as Zoey did to Dakota to Gwen in TDA.

So those are the main points that I've been hearing about Zoey which I think aren't 100% valid. These are just my opinons, and I'm not trying to change yours. I'm just trying to defend her because I think some of the comments are getting old.
