Talk:Zoom (1999 TV series)

Page contents not supported in other languages.

I question the assertion that the "0-2-1-3-4" slogan was not sung in the '99 TV series, as I'm not old enough to have ever watched the previous series, yet I know the "Box 3-5-oh, Boston, Mass, 0-2-1-3-4" slogan from childhood. I don't doubt that it could have been phased out, but I'm wondering where that information came from. Ullpianissimo (talk) 08:49, 30 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Date Confusion

[edit]

I swear up and down that I remember watching this exact show with this exact cast back (Jared, Keiko, Alisa, et al) in 1996 because I specifically remember not being in 5th grade and having a crush on Jared. Admittedly, my memory isn't what it used to be, but I thought I was 6 or 7 at the time (as opposed to 9 or 10). Am I crazy, doc? I just didn't want to rename it "1996 revival" before I knew for certain. (In fact, I was pretty sure I was about *five* at the time.) 98.71.128.188 (talk) 01:49, 30 August 2012 (UTC) No the show came out in 99. From all of the sites I have sieen and conferation from the created Zoom stated in 1999. WP Editor 2012 (talk) 22:10, 30 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Where Caroline is now

[edit]

I saw Caroline on a youtube channel as a host a while back. I cannot remember the name. If somebody could find that out and add it to the article, would be nice. 69.161.17.240 (talk) 10:17, 6 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The "Where They Are Now" Section!

[edit]

I think it is important and verifiable.

It's trivia. More importantly, it's unsourced trivia. That would be fine on a fan page, but does not belong in an encyclopedia. Edward321 (talk) 04:29, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

IMDB

[edit]

The table listing the kids by season links to some of their IMDB pages. Is this ok? It seems kind of out of place. Just wanted to point it out. 50.38.49.168 (talk) 03:32, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Are these videos in any way usable as a source?

[edit]

I'm sure the answer probably leans firmly into "no" territory, even though they clearly match the existing 1997 article in the references as far as visuals and the names we do have are concerned (and it's ostensibly a recording provided by Hayley herself), because their quality is not great and also they may well fall under WP:COPYVIO. Figured I'd ask anyway.

So... yeah, thought I'd bring it up on the off chance they're usable (even as just a way to grab time codes for something like Template:Cite AV media and then just actually cite the episode itself for the names) but fully aware of the fact it might not be usable for anything. If no one brings it up, then we never know. *shrug* - Purplewowies (talk) 16:56, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what you are trying to use them for, but yeah, those would likely be copyright violations. Though I don't know who the "Hayley" is who filmed this (but apparently did not upload it, but it seems highly unlikely that she holds the copyright to a show produced by WGBH, whether she's the same Hayley in the show or not. - SummerPhDv2.0 18:40, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I was bringing it up since it appeared part of the citation needed tagging for that row of the table was for the names, which the opening would provide a source for. (If we know it exists it doesn't technically need to be sourced to the copyvio specifically, but... OTOH we probably don't have enough info to reasonably fill out a cite tag for AV media to cite the episode either, now that I think about it, hmm...) I don't think it'd be helpful or right to link to the videos above since they're definitely copyvio (and I wanted to avoid it here but couldn't really do so without making the discussion needlessly confusing), but I wanted to mention their existence as part of asking about, say, using the episode itself as a primary source for factual information like the names. (That's definitely not ideal, so I would have avoided asking about this completely if I were at all able to find a clearly-reliable secondary source past what we already have down in the article for anything regarding the pilot.) - Purplewowies (talk) 22:41, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
