There’s only one place where you can see Jane Levy<\/strong>, Lauren Graham<\/a><\/strong>, Mary Steenburgen<\/strong> and Skylar Astin<\/strong> singing and dancing and that’s Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist<\/em>.<\/p>\n

NBC’s new high-concept musical dramedy follows Zoey Clarke after she starts hearing the innermost thoughts of those around her\u2014through song and dance. In the sneak peek below, get a first look at the series, including the Gilmore Girls<\/em> and Parenthood<\/em> veteran Graham singing “Satisfaction” in the bathroom. She makes nice use of the air hand dryer.<\/p>\n

“We meet Zoey during a hard time in her life,” Levy teases about her title character. In the show, Zoey’s father, played by Peter Gallagher, was just diagnosed with a brain disorder. Steenburgen plays her mother. And when Zoey, worried the disorder is hereditary, gets an MRI during an earthquake, everything changes.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“Nobody knows that they’re singing and dancing, only she sees that,” Graham explains.<\/p>\n

At first, Zoey thinks she’s going crazy, but after she starts getting guidance from Mo (Alex Newell<\/strong>), Zoey soon realizes this unwanted curse may be a gift.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“Mo is the musical conscience of Zoey, leading her through her musical journey,” Newell explains.<\/p>\n

Will the songs help Zoey connect, not only with her ailing father, but with friends and coworkers?<\/p>\n

“You never know what the person next to you is going through and music brings us all together,” Levy says.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
