  • Back in 1972, when this show started, it was soooo original and was such a positive model for kids. There was no E-mail back then, and Zoom had a neat way of getting people to remember their address: "Write Zoom (z double oh m) box 3-5-oh, Boston, Mass, ohhhhh two wuuuuuun three fourrrrrrr....Send it to Zoom!

  • @modularhalfpipe This modern reincarnation also has that same address song, They still sang it at the end of every episode. :D I'm glad they kept some of the awesome things like that from the original series.

  • I'm 14... this show, of all the 20+ shows I watched throughout my childhood, was always my favorite.

  • @ButterflyRainMyLove i know right. Me too

  • This was the birth place of dub step

  • ughh folk this the weak season

  • i remember having a crush on noreen and shing ying during this season plus caroline too

  • This is the zoom I grew up with!!!

  • Disappointing season to say the least..

  • haha the only part of this show that i remember was that catchy part that was like "if you like what you see turn off the tv and do it!" oh it feels like only yesterday i saw that show :)

  • The original theme song/cast was best!!! If you don't remember it in '99 then you don't know what you were missing out on! :-P

  • i didn't know the Jefferson's were helping make this show possible? hopefully the GOP cuts funding for PBS...Seasame Street makes millions of dolalrs a year - they hardly need taxpayer support. that reminds me. since the taxpayers pay to put that show on the air, doesn't that give us ownership? when do we get our royalty checks?

  • I had the biggest crush on Kyle.

  • I Miss This Show

  • no joke i had a crush o shing ying

  • i always thought Noreen was so pretty : )

  • Oh gosh, I used to have the biggest crush on Kyle o_e;;;

    Now he's a babe. D:

  • OMG I LOVE THIS SHOW when i was a kid My older sister and i would watch it all the time.

  • I used to watch this show all the TIME! I loved it :)

  • kyle is soo hot now.

    he was one of my favorites.

    the best is at like 1:43 when everyone fell and he just awkwardly falls in the background..

  • Add the show back to pbs

  • Oh my God, I remeber watching this when I was like five. xD o.O Wow. I totally forgot about this, I was watching South Park and they mentioned this so I just had to look up the theme song on Youtube of course. xD

  • I don't like memory lane. I always cry. . .

    i miss this show *T^T*.

  • BRING IT BACK! BRING IT BACK! BRING IT BACk! I miss this show.

  • If Shing-Ying's real name is Elena, why wasn't it Shing-Ying on the show? Stereotypical much? You can see it throughout the show. It's like they picked people with names that coincided with their race.

  • @prettybrowneyes541 From what I heard, it was because they didn't want people to be confused between the names "Elena" and "Aline" who was part of the cast when Shing started. Not sure if that's true or not though.

  • Whoa... I haven't seen this in so long. I don't even remember Noreen... lol

  • -SOB- I MISS ZOOM

  • Meh season 1 of the newer zoom was alot better than this.

  • Hehe, is it sad that I sent a letter to ZOOM after it ended?

  • Aww!! I totally MISS this show =(

  • Comment removed

  • Bahaha, at 1:41 Taylor totally feels up Nick.

  • @GavinRoskamp I think you mean Emily feels up Kyle... Taylor isn't near Nick at that point.

  • @sara4886 Yeah yeah yeah, I totally haven't watched this in forever and it's hard to re-learn all of their names in like 5 seconds when they introduce themselves.

  • @GavinRoskamp Yeah, I know what you mean. No worries. :)

  • When I was younger I totally though I would be on Zoom when I got older

  • who remembers 7 lilttle monsters

  • ubi luboved thubis shubow whuben ubi wubas uba kubid! (only real zoom fans remember this epic language lolz) :)

  • For me, this was the worst season of the 1999-2005 run of the show. Seasons 1, 2, and 4 were the best. Still love the show, though.

  • LMAO SHING YING!

    I MISS THIS SHOW!

  • I remember watching this show when i was in third grade now im a sophomore. I dont care how old i am i'd still watch this show. Bring this show back!!!!

  • I like how kyle just falls over on his own at the end

  • I MISS THIS SHOWW!!! D:

  • but the original is season one from 1972, but the newer version is season seven from 1999.

  • @JHollowayNetwork Exactly. This is season seven from the new series. They didn't continue counting for me, they started fresh with the new series... at least in my mind.

  • the season aired in 1999, not 2005.

  • @JHollowayNetwork Season one aired in 1999. This is season 7, and it did air in 2005.

  • shiiiiiiing YING! that was always my favorite part idk why!

  • I was like 8 or 9 when this was out :( zoom <3

  • this was my least favorite season of the show.

  • ohhh man I used to love this show lol...This is my fav season...well my fav people are in it lol

  • Never watched this season. I think I stopped watching after the 4 or 5th season. This intro was ok, but no where near as good as Season 1.

  • oh god i hated all of the seasons after the 1st one!

  • lol that was my childhood

  • i miss ZOOM!! i used to look forward for it in my junior high school years :) now they dont have it anymore and I am graduating High School T.T

    I LOVE PBS!!

  • The first season had the best theme song... >.>

  • i remember this! i wish they air this still! but unfortunely, they arent! D>:

  • Wow they would have a mexican and an asian along with 2 negros. FYI I'm black it's ok if I say it.

  • samshua117: it dosent matter what race you are it is still offencive to others of your race & many other ppl... really tho dnt b so narrow minded.

  • I loved this show.

  • I used to watch this every day when I was younger *tear* T_T Ah, the years of my youth :D Actually, it wasn't so long ago :D lol

  • lol i used to always watch this

  • i did some research on this and i found out that some of the season 7 zoomers have facebooks now ! if anyone wants to know just type in below

    Kyle Larrow

    Francesco Tena

    Noreen Raja

    Taylor Garron

  • Haha...so added them

    XD

  • wasnt taylor in fetch with ruf ruf man

    :o

  • Yeah

  • i always wanted to be on this show!!!!

  • what year was this season out i loved this show

  • This season aired in the spring of 2005. :)

  • Zoom was my favorite TV show. It and George Shrinks needs to go back on.

  • can never beat season one.

  • they so should have continued this

  • man i miss this show i remember after school i used to watch it they should put it bak; cuz now pbs sux wth out the good showss oh i remember that i thought kyle was cute ha lol :)

  • @123greenelephant same i would come in from school to waych it and kyle was so cutte!

  • @cutieduck397 nicee, they should brinq it back, jeje:D, ahh hopee kylee is cutee still haa;D

  • Looks like there are many 14 year olds that really miss this show also:)

    Why don't they show it anymoree? I remember alwaysss watching this!

  • @MsNaturallyNessie Ahh me too :)

  • @MsNaturallyNessie According to the information that I found, it was not getting high enough ratings. The really creepy thing to think about for me is that I am just barely younger than the kids on the show. I'll be 17 in just under a month and i still love this show. GO ZOOM. (note..did you know this show exsisted in 1972 too?)

  • @natsumexmikan43vr

    haha Yeah!:D I saw a clip here on fannee dooley from the 70s. That just proves that they need to start fresh again.

  • @MsNaturallyNessie i watched this every day after school BRING BACK ZOOM!

  • @jwgibs Exactly!! :D

  • @MsNaturallyNessie I am 19 and still want this show back. It was because of low ratings which doesn't make sense.

  • @MsNaturallyNessie i think they werent getting enough people to watch it like they used to so they cut it. Shame, I was waiting for the day when they little audition thing would come up on my tv so I could hopefully be apart of it too.:( sad face.

  • My fav was season 1(2,3 and 4 were good too) but i remember this season very vaguely. All i know is that Taylor showed up on another PBS kids show . Wasn't it Fetch! or something?

    This intro sucks though. You just can't beat the season 1 intro haha

  • i mean i luv hoow they did the call out this season

  • for sum reason how they did the call out this season

  • im miss zoom they they need to bring back all the old pbs kids shows

  • yeah i agree!

  • @LilMissIsa27 I;m sure they will eventually. You probably found out at some point that this show actually goes all the way back to 1972. And the Electric Company was remade recently, too, and was also made in 1972!

    Have faith. The guys at PBS know what a classic is, and how to update it without removing the soul from it. : )

  • i always watched this after school i wish it still was on loved this show ♥

  • wow, im fourteen to and this brings WAYY old memmories back q:

  • (gasp!) I remember this! I'm 14.

  • @ pressCtrlG me tooooo lol

  • always wanted to be on this show but now it looks like it would be a waste of time

  • i had the biggest crush on Kyle ;P

  • updated photos of the zoomers on my channel!!!!!!! =) ♥♥♥

  • i think these were the last kids i watched when i was younger...im not sure,what year was this?

  • This aired in 2005.

  • alright, then yeah this were the last kids i watched, thank you.

  • *these

  • I miss this show:(

    I think I used tho have a crush on that Kyle guy....

  • was it really cool to say "thanks" instead of thank you back then?

  • i learned a lot of cool stuff off of watching zoom.why did they take it off the air.

  • i'm thinking the exsact same thing

  • @ratchetboyz214 Zoom fell victim to declining ratings.

  • wow i remember this show i miss watching that so much back then tv was simpler now its becomin nutin but reality shows and dumb ideas for shows

  • Yeah, but it wasn't on the entire time, there was a break in between the 70s one and the new one. All I meant was that this is season 7 of the new version.

  • THIS SUCKS COMPARED TO SEASON 7. I LIKED JARED AND LYNESE AND KEIKO AND ALL OF THEM... lol

  • This IS season 7. I assume you mean season 1.

  • wasn't taylor on the first season of fetch w/ ruff ruffman too?

  • Yes she was. :)

  • its season 8!!!!!!!!!!!!

    season 7 was with zoe, jared, keiko, pablo, lynese, alisa and david

  • No, it is season 7. The season you described was season 1.

  • oh i just checked wikipedia its in versions!!!!

    theres version 1 & 2

    zoe, jared, keiko, pablo, lynese, alisa and david

    are in version 1 season 1

    now i understand!!!!

  • I didn't like season 7s intro at all!!!!

  • Wait..this isn't season 7. Well whatever season this is...I didn't like it. Well I like it, I just don't like some parts of it.

  • Yes it is season 7.

  • if they made a season 8, francesco tena would leave. but im glad that they didn't put season 8 because francesco is my favorite zoomer.

  • What year was this from? Because I know it says season 7, but this is really really different from the Zoom I used to watch... Of course that was season 1 in 1999, but still.....

  • This season started airing around April 2005... so the show evolved a lot between season 1 in 1999 and season 7 in 2005.

  • Oh okay yeah no wonder it's so different

  • The theme song sounds like "Aaron's Party (Come Get It)" by Aaron Carter. Don't You Think?

  • ooh... i had a hugeeee crush on kyle

  • omg I wanna cry I miss Zoom so much! I miss when I was a kid and I used to watch thinga like Zoom, PB&J Otter, Out of the box, Bear in the big blue house, etc. I wish disney and nick were like they used to be!

  • anyone else notice how like every season had a kid of like every ethnicity on the planet?

  • That was their plan, they wanted diversity.

  • i used to laugh when the girl said shing ying lol

  • they need to bring this show back DX

  • are any of them famous or in something more recent?

  • I loved this show! I still remember the words to the opening...omg I had a crush on Kyle when I was like 7...hahaha!!! Wow...good times...

  • lmfaoo me 2 !

  • They should bring this show back. It was so positive for kids.

  • man brings back memories...i had a crush on caroline when she got older and kaleigh =))

  • why does it have REALLY bad reception?

  • Sorry, I didn't record it myself so I couldn't make the reception better. I could only work with what I had from the person who recorded it. It was also compressed so it wouldn't take too long to send the episode.

  • omg :) i used to love this show and kyle i thought he was so cute :) omg to be a kid again...

  • omg i used to love this show =)

  • kyle was the cutest

  • I've meet a couple of these people!! I loved the show!

  • Was Taylor of a show with a cartoon dog?

  • Yes she was. :) It's called Fetch! With Ruff Ruffman.

  • Does anyone know what year this would've been? I totally remember the original 1999 cast and theme put i'm trying to remember how old i was when this season was on?

  • This season aired in the spring of 2005.

  • my favorite pbs kids show too

  • Oh Yeah! I remember this. I haven't seen this since like 2002.

  • It was on PBS idk if they still give it.

  • No, they don't, as far as I know.

  • THIS is the season i watched, all the other ones are old and weird, but zoom is the best show ever for kids like, 7 and under. i still wish i knew what channel it was on tho :(

  • PBS is what it aried on

  • i liked the season with jared and lynese the most. i think it was the 1999 season...idk. but they were the best!!!

    when this season came i stopped watching it because it just became wack

  • yes that was the best...

  • IS THIS from the New ZOOM of the 1990's?

  • Yes it is.

  • ...and they were still using the "02134" address sometimes on here...

  • Yep, they still had the same zip code since it's the same area in Boston.

  • i liked the season of 1999..im not saying that the season 7th was bad..but i liked most the season of 1999

  • Oh man, Noreen was my fav! That's after Caroline, of course.
