'Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist' aired with an emotional season finale that had all of us reaching for our tissues. The series that started off on a happy note, so much so that fans were shocked by the way the series came to an end. After 12 episodes and a lot of heart songs, fans now want the series to be renewed for Season 2. 

When the episode began, Zoey (Jane Levy) woke up singing to herself again, and this time it was a dire song. It was 'Bad Moon Rising' by Creedence Clearwater Revival. Worried about what danger is lurking around her, her family, and friends, Zoey was extra aware of her surroundings. But by the end of the day, things seemed fine. 

Her father's health was in a better condition, Joan became in charge of SPRQ Point, Mo and Eddie got back together. Apart from that, she and Max (Skylar Astin) finally hooked up, which fans have been rooting for since the season premiered. 

But little did she know, that Mitch's better condition during the day was just the calm before the storm. Half an hour into the episode, when things were going great, fans didn't expect it to turn into an emotional end with them reaching for their tissues. 

Zoey gets a call from home about her father's deteriorating health condition and rushes to be by his side in his last few moments. It was sad to see Mitch (Peter Gallagher) go, but hopefully, if the series is renewed we will get to see him in Zoey's imagination. 

Throughout this season, Zoey has grown a lot and even though it was tragic to see her father's death, it helped her grow and get stronger as well. What stood out throughout this entire episode, was the final song 'American Pie' when the family and friends of Zoey's came together and we couldn't have asked for a better ending to the season. 

But this is just the start of Zoey's story, and fans affirm they need the series to be renewed for Season 2. Taking to Twitter a fan wrote, "Thank you for being amazing writers this season!!! @nbc do these people right and being them back next season! #ZoeysPlaylist."

"Just finished the season finale of @ZoeysPlaylist !!! It was so good! No one told me I needed tissues for the whole second half of the show! Zoey better be coming back for Season 2! #zoey #ZoeysPlaylist," a fan shared. Adding to that another said, "I'm off to work... With puffy eyes but it was worth it! Thank you @ZoeysWriters for such a brilliant Season and bringing a Show like this to the World! Fingers are crossed for Season 2! #ZoeysPlaylist." 

"So I've been watching Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist since first episode. I came in for the fun musical with story. 30 minutes into season finale and I'm tearing up. I don't cry at this stuff. #ZoeysPlaylist," a fan added. Another fan said, "Such a beautiful episode! I cried so much. Please make a season 2 ❤❤ #ZoeysPlaylist." 

"#ZoeysPlaylist is such a real, intense, emotional, and beautiful show. This episode today proved that so well. Its depiction of loss and grief rang so true for me. I truly hope it gets picked up for season 2. If you haven’t seen it yet please try it out," a fan wrote.
