![]() NBC’s hope: Younger audiences who’ve been abandoning linear TV will take notice of Zoey before it settles into its weekly broadcast run. NBC has used the long gap between installments of the Jane Levy–led series to make it ubiquitous, striking deals to place the show’s first episode on a slew of large digital platforms like YouTube, Hulu, Facebook, and Spotify, while also embedding the hour in ads the network took out on sites such as Playbill, Bustle, and yes, Vulture. This is not how things usually work in TV - but there is a purpose behind the Peacock’s protracted Playlist pause. On Sunday night, the network will finally air the show’s next episode. In early January, NBC premiered the first episode of its quirky new musical-drama Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist, airing it behind a special episode of Ellen’s Game of Games.
