Zo\u00e9 K\u00e9zako the TV series features the adventures of this irresistible little girl, with stacks of humour and piles of energy. The fruit of V\u00e9ronique Sa\u00fcqu\u00e8re’s imagination.Just like all kids her age (7 and three quarters), Zo\u00e9 asks herself many questions and is not always sure how to act in certain situations. Nothing could be more natural – after all, the one thing she doesn\u2019t have is… experience!From one episode to the next, Zo\u00e9 gains vital experience for daily life. Each individual story is a slice of livingness, a portion of knowledge we all need to get a grasp of the world and the people around us. The understanding that helps us grow up, just at the right speed. Until, one fine day, we suddenly realize that: Life is a big heap of fun!Characters[edit]Main characters[edit]Zoe Kezako: 7 \u00be years old, Zo\u00e9 hates anything that gets in the way of her daily routine or that disturbs her countless capricious moods. Indeed, this is the age where anything that is not your own, doesn\u2019t concern you or revolve around you should just not exist: her two best friends are now spending far too much time together, strangers walk in during her favourite television show, etc. And, unlike other children, Zo\u00e9 expresses it! She is straightforward and without any hang-ups, right up there with the greats, such as Calvin (from Calvin and Hobbes), Zazie or Mafalda. She wants it all! Like many kids her age, Zo\u00e9 is going through her \u201ccenter of the world\u201d phase.Mariponpon Glutton: Mariponpon is more than just a \u201cgreedy piggy\u201d! Mariponpon is as easy going and care free as Zo\u00e9 is pestering. She isn\u2019t very hard-to-please: she\u2019ll go where it’s bright and shiny (an ice-cream stand, a merry-go-round, etc.). She finds everything and everyone positively delightful. She is very reconciling, so much so that she doesn\u2019t even know there’s a problem in the first place. In fact, she has no opinion of her own. Everything’s just \u201cfine and dandy\u201d, ALL the time! The only time she ever gets mad is if she’s going along with Zo\u00e9, or because Zo\u00e9 has pushed her over the edge. In other words, the rare times she loses it, she does so unwillingly. Tony Dingo: Tony is the local clown; he also happens to be Zo\u00e9’s neighbour. This kind-hearted loony who\u2019ll do anything to annoy people (he tangles himself up in other people’s jump-ropes on purpose, throws papier-m\u00e2ch\u00e9 balls in class, etc.). Sometimes, even in his sleep, he happens to break stuff lying next to him. He’s completely unruly. Tony’s got a deep sway in his walk and he wears a hat and overalls filled with holes. He’s always in good spirits and bursting with energy. Left to his own devices, he’s insolent and a little edgy, bur deeply human. At times he can show signs of kindness and generosity, but he quickly finds himself back his craziness. In a word, Tony is totally going through \u201cthe dumb age\u201d. Super Duper: Born in a distant country populated with kangaroos, he is the new star of the school. He is constantly glued to his speaker tuned to his favourite radio station, and always saying hype expressions like \u201cyou crack me up, dude\u201d. He’s always got the latest clothes, the coolest gadgets, amazing roller-blades, not to mention his delicious British-sounding accent. Awesome! To make matters worse, he’s often trailing Zo\u00e9. That’s because he’s CRRRazy about Melina (who, on the other hand, couldn\u2019t give a damn about him), who spends every Wednesday afternoon at Zo\u00e9’s house in account of the fact that her mom has asked Zo\u00e9’s mom to give her extra French lessons! Melina : All Melina ever thinks about is African dancing and setting the most sadistic of traps for everyone, in conjunction with Zo\u00e9!! And yet she is quite obviously the most gifted pupil in the class, which explains why everybody (parents, teachers and, basically, anyone in their right mind!) is convinced she is a future candidate for the most exclusive of universities. Melina is a mystery to everyone who knows her! Despite being extremely smart and first in class without lifting a single finger, Melina loooves picking her nose, sticking whoopee cushions on the teacher’s chair or devising the craziest of traps, with the purpose of ridiculing anyone and everyone around her! Even Zo\u00e9 sometimes thinks she goes too far! Jeny : Tightly fitted up to the neck and over-accessorized, and overwhelmed by her adoration for the terrible singer Gino, Jeny walks around listening to her walkman and carrying her flashy notebooks. However, Jeny does not belong to Zo\u00e9’s circle of friends because she never stops talking! She speaks about how popular she is and of her \u201cbest friends\u201d all day long, but she really doesn\u2019t have any. No one seems to want to be associated with her. Ironically, she has a huge crush in Tony Dingo who happens to be the most unapproachable boy of them all. Jeny is neither bitter, dumb or bent on revenge. She just wants people to pay attention to her.Machine: Machine is the coolest baby sitter. Everyone loves her. Every time she picks up Zo\u00e9 for school, it’s a huge event! She’s totally crazy and knows exactly how to make everyone laugh. She’s always running around and making jokes. Her face is covered with pimples and she wears humongous braces. She dreams of becoming a Hollywood star! One day, she\u2019ll break the piggy-bank and make the big trip! In the meantime, she spends a lot of time scanning audition magazines, hoping to find a role in a commercial, a sitcom or a movie. She even sometimes gets Zo\u00e9 and Titi to help her rehearse scenes. Dad and Mom: Zo\u00e9’s parents are the only symbols of authority (\u201ctime for dinner!\u201d, or \u201cget dressed, we\u2019re going to grandma\u2019s!!\u201d). Zo\u00e9’s mom is a young, beautiful and gracious woman, fair, open-minded, a bit eccentric, very cool and always smiling. Dad, who loves his wife, is a little bit more down to earth.Secondary characters[edit]Titi: Titi, Zo\u00e9’s brother, is a little piece of sticky tape that won\u2019t get off your fingers! He lives his life constantly stuck to Zo\u00e9, and making noise all around her, tearing apart her notebooks and chewing on her super-cool pens. He’s Zo\u00e9’s worst nightmare in diapers.Mr. Bonbec: Mr. Bonbec sells candy in his colourful boutique. He is the children’s great friend and never hesitates to give out candies, to be comforting and to give advice. The children seek him out like a true sage.Miss Lardon: Being so delicate and sentimental, Miss Lardon is easily overwhelmed by her pupils. She also often finds amusing methods for explaining math or science. She loves romantic poetry and is easily moved when speaking of love.Mrs. Glouton: Mariponpon’s mother is a generous woman, in every sense of the word. She seems to create a wonderful living experience for her daughter, probably to compensate for her father’s absence. A true garden of Eden, packed full of toys, games, meals, snacks, costumes, etc.Episodes[edit]Pilot season[edit]French titleEnglish titleDateS00E01Premier piloteFirst Pilot6\/12\/2002S00E02PilotePilot6\/12\/2004First season[edit]French titleEnglish titleDateS01E01Titi pot d’colleBaby brother blues3\/03\/2006S01E02La Super Cata\u00a0!Game over3\/03\/2006 20\/12\/2022S01E03Lola canon du SquareLola the park pin up01\/09\/2007S01E04M\u00e9gatrocSplat the gnat!01\/09\/2007S01E05Rien que des tra\u00eetresBunch of traitors08\/09\/2007S01E06Mort aux betteravesDown with beets08\/09\/2007S01E07Une baby-sitter d’enferBronco baby sitter15\/09\/2007S01E08Tata BisousAuntie Kissy15\/09\/2007S01E09Des baskets du tonnerre\u00a0!Shoe must go on22\/09\/2007S01E10Portrait crach\u00e9Spiting image22\/09\/2007S01E11M\u00eame pas cap’Simply the best29\/09\/2007S01E12Machin MachineThingee and Thingamajic29\/09\/2007S01E13Par ici les bonbecsCrazy for the candy06\/10\/2007S01E14Moi d’abord\u00a0!Don\u2019t let me down06\/10\/2007S01E15Oh les amoureux\u00a0!Love birds13\/10\/2007S01E16Flou artistiqueBlur zone13\/10\/2007S01E17L’amie des starsAlmost famous20\/10\/2007S01E18Journal intimeBig time secret20\/10\/2007S01E19La belle \u00e9toileNight of the wusses27\/10\/2007S01E20La punitionSo grounded27\/10\/2007S01E21C’est pas trop t\u00f4t\u00a0!No rush!10\/11\/2007S01E22La petite nouvelleWhozatgirl10\/11\/2007S01E23Le clan des gar\u00e7onsIn with the boys17\/11\/2007S01E24Les super pouvoirsSuper powers24\/11\/2007S01E25Ouh la copieuseCopycat24\/11\/2007S01E26Porte-bonheurLucky charm01\/12\/2007Second season[edit]French titleEnglish titleDateS02E01Super secretSuper secret14\/02\/2008S02E02Poudre aux yeuxStarry-eyed21\/02\/2008S02E03Boomerang\u00a0!Boomerang28\/02\/2008S02E04Zo\u00e9 au carr\u00e9Zo\u00e9 to the power of two28\/02\/2008S02E05Le roi des barjotsKing of the crackpots07\/03\/2008S02E06Z\u00e9ro point\u00e9Double zero07\/03\/2008S02E07Inspecteur Zo\u00e9Inspector Zo\u00e914\/03\/2008S02E08Bon d\u00e9barras\u00a0!Good riddance\u00a0!14\/03\/2008S02E09Enfin seule\u00a0!Alone at last21\/03\/2008S02E10La copine invisibleThe invisible friend21\/03\/2008S02E11Avis de rechercheWanted28\/03\/2008S02E12Bon voyage\u00a0!Prepare for take off28\/03\/2008S02E13M\u00e9li-m\u00e9loA right mix up04\/04\/2009S02E14D\u00e9collage imm\u00e9diat\u00a0!Prepare for take off04\/04\/2009S02E15C’est moi le chef\u00a0!I’m the boss11\/04\/2009S02E16Boum\u00a0!The party11\/04\/2010S02E17Trop la honte\u00a0!What an embarrassment\u00a0!18\/04\/2010S02E18La disparitionThe vanishing25\/04\/2010S02E19Ma meilleure ennemieMy best enemy02\/05\/2011S02E20Super papaSuper Dad09\/05\/2012S02E21\u00c0 l’attaque\u00a0!Charge\u00a0!23\/05\/2012S02E22Tonton bisousUncle kissy23\/05\/2012S02E23Copine d’un jourFriend for a day03\/06\/2013S02E24Princesse CosmonautePrincess cosmonaut10\/06\/2013S02E25Valentin super starValentine superstars17\/06\/2013S02E26Reine d’un jourQueen for a day21\/02\/2014International Animation Festival \u00ab\u00a0Cartoons on the Bay\u00a0\u00bb 2005: Pulcinella Award for the Best Children SeriesInternational Animation Festival \u00ab\u00a0Cartoons on the Bay\u00a0\u00bb 2005: Pulcinella Award for the Best CharacterChicago International Animation Festival 2005\u00a0: Second prize for Best Animated Series (adult jury)Chicago International Animation Festival 2005\u00a0: Excellence certificate (young jury)Paris Audiovisual Club 2005\u00a0: Laurier of the Best Children ProgramFestival du Film de T\u00e9l\u00e9vision de Luchon 2005\u00a0: Award of the 8-12 y.o. categoryNomination at the international Emmy Awards (New-York) 2005Publishing[edit]Frimousse Publishing\u00a0:Truc Machin est n\u00e9\u00a0!L’anniversaire d’enfer\u00a0!Lola-Canon-du-SquareValentin mon AmoureuxC’est meilleur chez Mariponpon Glouton\u00ab\u00a0Super-Cr\u00e2neur\u00a0\u00bb,le nouveau de la classeChez Ginette CouptifMachine, baby-sitter trop super\u00a0!M.
