i dont know what to think about her

in season 4 she really was nice and i could relate to her somehow (only child, no friends). yes all "zoke" thing was really annoying but she was nice. not the best but defently not the worst. when she became the main protagonist in TDAL she became annoying a little, especially when mike was around. she became too perfect and too godplayer (after she was pretty damsle in distress in season 4). im not hate her but i really don't like her becasue of TDAL. but i think i can give her one more chance only if it will be without mike

i think it's pretty clear that the writers wanted to wrote her character as the "sole sane person" trop. just like they did with Bridgette and they will do with Sky. and i accept it becaus these kind of tv shows needs this sole sane person (just like Donna in that 70's show). but unlike with Bridgette and Sky, Zoey was "too perfect". Bridgette showed she has some dark side (thing that make her character pretty cool to me) and Sky never presented as the perfect girl and she do have some flaws (thing that makes her charachar pretty realisic). but with Zoey they wrote too perfect, too mary sue, too damsale and distress but godplayer at the same time. all these make her character pretty boring. in ROI she showed some sighs of imperfection. like when she puked in episode 11 or when she was ready to risk her life for money (thing she agreed to do after chris showed her the money when she wanted to quit) or when she laught at badly injured scott. but her TDAS version just ruind her character. it was place of great develpomet with commando zoey but after two episode everyone behave like commando zoey never happened.

so im not like her but definitely not hate her.

best moment: winning TDAS or all her commando zoey scenes

best season: TDROTI

best episode: eat puke and be wary
