WHAT IT'S ABOUT: When San Francisco coder Zoe Clarke (Jane Levy, "Suburgatory") gets an MRI for headaches, something freaky happens: A bunch of old songs are downloaded into her brain, and when she later sees strangers on the street, she can read their inner thoughts, which are expressed in song-and-dance. Same thing happens with her co-workers at the Big Tech company where she is angling for a manager spot. They include close friend Max (Skylar Astin) who reveals his inner thoughts via the Jonas Brothers' "Sucker," or Simon (John Clarence Stewart), the guy she has a secret crush on. Her neighbor, Mo (Alex Newell) is amused by this talent, but Zoey _ whose father (Peter Gallagher) is comatose after a stroke and whose mother (Mary Steenburgen) is just coping _ is horrified.
Tuesday's episode was a preview, while the regular series premieres Feb. 16.
MY SAY: "I left my heeeeaarrttt in San Francisco ..." For some crazy reason, that's the song that went through my head during "Zoey," but _ failing to recall the rest of the words _ it just went on repeat ("I left my heart ... I left my heart ...") Soon enough, I started to think, "fine, stay in San Francisco for all I care."
