This was so well done. Emotional - funny and sad. The writers, the actors, the music - everything about it. It was beautiful. I hope this show is renewed...it's the high point of my week.

Such a moving and poignant episode that tackles difficult scenarios expertly. As with all the episodes, the series finale uses music to work through emotional topics in a way that enhances instead of taking away from the story, but this episode in particular absolutely soars thanks to its impeccable song choice and incredibly talented cast.

It was not only flawless but visually astonishing. The music selection was worthy of an award by itself. The last number, filmed in a single shot is perhaps one of the most artful pieces of TV I have seen in my life. Hope to see an Emmy node for this episode.

Thank you for creating this. I have lost so much this past year and watching this final episode, I just thought of my sister who suddenly passed nearly 8 months ago, my sweet friend who passed suddenly 3 months ago, and my little angel baby who passed on one month ago. I just cried and cried watching this and needed this so much. Just to see everything I felt translated to screen. Made me feel less alone in my loss. Thank you.

I have loved this series!! It's different! It's great entertainment but it has touched me emotionally from the start. A beautiful way to end the season and hopefully another couple of seasons to come:)

Wow. From an odd beginning to episodes which helped us to suspend belief, we've been taken to a powerful and delightfully heartwarming climax. Well done. Thank you.

A perfect ending for season 1 lets hope season 2 happens. American pie was an excellent choice for a song.

I don't know if it's the Coronavirus or what but in the last two weeks I've witnessed two of the best finales ever on TV. Certainly Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist has been an extraordinary escape for us sheltered-at-home folk. And I've loved this show the whole season, but... wow, Zoey's Extraordinary Dad blew me out of the water. Can we agree that the last six minutes or so of the show was some of the best, most brilliant, most moving, most heartfelt television ever? Yes, truly extraordinary! The whole episode rocked. The last six minutes rocketed! Just amazing stuff. I know all of production has been shut down, and I do feel a little cheated that there were only 12 episodes this season (but I am so grateful for those 12), but with that said, I CANNOT WAIT FOR SEASON 2! The talent here deserves the proverbial tip of the hat. BTW, a quick shout out to the other great finale, which actually was a series finale. Homeland. Off topic for sure, but like Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist, wow, one of the best series finales EVER. Another tip of the hat to their talent as well. Hope to see you again soon Zoey.

This series from amazing from the beginning I enjoyed every episode and all the song choices throughout but this episode in particular was an emotional gut punch idont know about anyone else but I was crying throughout the episode. The final moment between Zoey and her dad where you can faintly hear "True Colors" playing in the background was a very heartwarming moment. The first song he sang to her is the last one played before his inevitable death. If this show continues then they are going to have trouble stopping such an amazing and at times emotional season but I would look forward to it.

It doesn't get better than this. This episode was fantastic; heartbreaking and touching at the same time. I cried all the way from "Goodnight, My Angel" until the end. If NBC cancels this show, they're fools.

Beautiful episode, awesome show. Truly hope there will be a second season.

This episode is the most artistic episode of the series and quite possible the most emotionally raw television episode I have ever seen. One moment laughing and the next in tears.

This season finale is one of the great moments in the history of episodic television.

Yes, we all knew what was coming and if there's a slight weakness in this otherwise stunning episode it's the fact that from the first song we can all be pretty sure what's going to happen. But when it does it is so beautifully handled and the episode up to that point contains some wonderfully warm humour and terrific songs (I think that there are more songs in this one than any of the others by a long way) that nothing can spoil it. The closing number is the best 5 minutes of TV I've seen in years and I can only imagine how much work it must have taken to get it so note-perfect (pun intended). I wasn't sure about this show for the first one or two episodes, but it's gone on to be my favourite new series this year. I can't wait to see more and I'm so delighted that it's been picked up for a second series. An Emmy, if you please!

Love this show, made me laugh, made me cry. Best entertainment I have seen in a long time, never miss a show and look forward to next season.

This is only the second episode of TV that I have ever given a 10 rating to and it deserved every star. A heart wrenching yet still uplifting experience. Lots of tears but smiles as well. What a wonderful experience this whole series has been so far. I really hope it comes back. I watch a lot of TV but this has been the top of my list this year. Kudos to all involved. You should be very, very proud of yourselves.
