As of | As of September 2024, all episodes from seasons 2-7 and 21 episodes from season 1 have been found and uploaded online. 14 from the first season were uploaded onto YouTube by [https://www.youtube.com/@ZOOMfan1/videos YouTube user ZOOMFan1] and 7 more by [https://www.youtube.com/@EvanMediaArchive/videos Evan's Media Archive]. | ||
As of September 2024, the missing episodes from season 1 are 113-129 and 131-133. | |||
As GBH currently does not have the rights to share or release the episodes, the only chance of finding them at the time is on VHS recordings from when they aired on TV. Since most of the episodes have not been broadcast since early 2002 (and the season hasn't been aired at all since January 2003), chances of all the episodes being found are slim to none. | As GBH currently does not have the rights to share or release the episodes, the only chance of finding them at the time is on VHS recordings from when they aired on TV.

Latest revision as of 16:48, 26 September 2024
Zoom was a live-action children's series that aired from January 4th, 1999 to May 6th, 2005, produced by WGBH (now GBH) that aired on PBS. It was a revival of another live-action series of the same name that aired from 1972-1978. The show is in the same vain as other popular children's shows that aired on PBS like Sesame Street and The Electric Company, but its cast is made up of kids ages 8 and up and perform various activities like games, plays, poems, songs, and would occasionally start conversations on various topics like prejudice and hospitals, with most topics being submitted by the home audience. The revival became a ratings winner for PBS and switched to the channel's children's block "PBS Kids" halfway through the show's first season. The revival lasted 7 seasons with 200 episodes (outliving its precursor in episode length), ending in May 2005 due to poor ratings.[1]
Availability
The revival only saw four home media releases in the form of four VHS tapes that were released between 1999 and 2002. After PBS Kids stopped rerunning the show in 2007, a large majority of the show's run has never been seen since and is mostly lost.
As of September 2024, all episodes from seasons 2-7 and 21 episodes from season 1 have been found and uploaded online. 14 from the first season were uploaded onto YouTube by YouTube user ZOOMFan1 and 7 more by Evan's Media Archive.
As of September 2024, the missing episodes from season 1 are 113-129 and 131-133.
As GBH currently does not have the rights to share or release the episodes, the only chance of finding them at the time is on VHS recordings from when they aired on TV. Since most of the episodes have not been broadcast since early 2002 (and the season hasn't been aired at all since January 2003), chances of all the episodes being found are slim to none.
Clips from some of the episodes have been found, however. Below is a list of known found and lost segments from the missing 20 episodes.
