TV Series

The Resume

    (January 3, 1972-1978; January 4, 1999-2005)
    Children's magazine program
    Premise: Seven kids (four girls, three boys) do various activities that are sent in by viewers who mail or e-mail ideas for the show

Why ZOOM (TV Series) might be annoying:

    They keep changing the cast every season!
    The cast members care called ZOOMers.
    During the first run of the series, the cast members were barefoot.
    In some segments, the ZOOMers spoke in a gibberish language called Ubbi Dubbi where an 'UB' was placed before a vowel (ex. zoom=zUBoom).
    In another segment, the present Fannee Doolee, a mysterious person, likes and dislikes different stuff (likes stools, not chairs) that are similarly related.
    They sang an inane anthem which even included singing Boston's 02134 zip code.

Why ZOOM (TV Series) might not be annoying:

    It looks like some serious fun.
    It gave children a chance to share bizarre and wonderful ideas.
    One segment called 'ZOOM into action' recognizes kids who help out in their community.
    It puts the viewer in control of the show (well, almost).
    The show had a cult following in the 1970's.
    Bernadette's arm twisting trick was very mind boggling.
    It was revived again in 1999.
