What were your first reactions when you found out Jamie-Lynn Spears was going to be on Zoey 101?

Also, I just discovered that Jamie Lynn is spelt without the ‘E’ after Lynn unlike her mother’s name.

Nepotism.

I didn’t have any opinion on it because I wasn’t the age range that would watch the show. I think it had been on for a while before I even knew about it.

I liked JL already from All That. She was pretty good at sketch comedy. Also, I was excited to see a show starring B’s little sister. I hoped for a cameo. But it never happened.

I've never liked her. As I've said on other threads, I'm a couple of years younger than her, so I never fell for "her charm" when she used to appear on interviews and documentaries as Britney's little sister, in fact, I always found her obnoxious. We didn't get All That in Latin America (at least I never knew about it) so it was straight to Zoey 101, so yeah, never bothered to watch it, just by watching the commercials or a few seconds when you're changing the channels, it was like Plus it coincided with this era of Nickelodeon when they stopped airing the good old Nicktoons and started with all these shows like Zoey 101, Ned, Unfabulous, Mr. Meaty, etc They literally ended my childhood right there

I've never watched this show and I didn't even know it existed

I liked the show cause I wished I went to school on the beach in a dorm like a college student 

[TakeYourHand]

Didn’t know, didn’t care 🤷🏽‍♂️ I know Zoey 101 was actually one of Nicks more successful shows but I never got into it. At the time I was a freshmen and sophomore in high school. Oddly enough I loved Victorious which I think came out after Zoey and maybe as a replacement?

i was too young to really know anything about britney. i just watched tv one day and this show came on & as i got older it became one of my favourites. i still love this show a lot, so many of the episodes have burned into my mind

[jordeezy river red]

Never cared. We all knew she had an "in". All That was cute tho

[JP9101]

I never watched I knew Brit had a sister  and I thought she was very pretty but I never was interested 

[DignifiedLove]

I remember seeing her sketches on All That and thinking she was cool / funny but other than that, I didn’t care nor really had an opinion. I wasn’t even a Britney fan until 2008 and never really cared for that show as I was more into other Nickelodeon shows at the time like Drake & Josh, iCarly, etc. I do however feel like she was more tolerable back then.
 

Here is the sketch I am referring to btw:

Simpler, better days

[Stannedforever]

It didn't air in like 95% of the countries so I didn't ever get to witness that 

I tried to watch it years and years later like in 2012 but... let's just be nice and say that her whole acting career was carried by her co-actors

[Nickey]

I saw Zoey like 1 or 2 years after its premiere, so it wasn't really new, but.. What I think about this is that she was doing fine, but she herself was nothing special. I think it just happened because of Britney and her fame at that time. Kinda like with Kylie Minogue's sister, but I think Danii worked harder than JLS anyway.

[SloppyToppyGoddess]

I instantly knew she was going to win an Emmy for Best Actress.

This..

I didn’t even knew Brit had a sister at that time :? Or did? Around 2006-2007 I started to read about Britney and searches for her music. When I listened to “just yesterday” I found out she had a sister (If I remember it correctly of course :d)

[pieceofbritUK]

I though "oh that's cool, Britney's helping her sister, like a true sister does"... Oh, how young and naive I was 

[tommy_boy]

So, back in the day there were hype/teasers/rumours about this show?  Didn't know that.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who didn't watch it, so I still can't say if it's good or not and probably will never since I'm not interested in watching it.
