* FreakyFridayFlip: "Zoey’s Extraordinary Mystery" features a variant, using the trope namer as a clue. The people Zoey runs into begin swapping songs instead of bodies, and in order to help them she has to figure out who is singing for whom. Especially finding out the true owner of the heartbreaking song about loneliness sung by Max at the beginning of the episode. [[spoiler:Turns out it was Zoey's sister-in-law Emily, and the songs started switching in order to get Zoey's attention because she hadn't stuck around Emily long enough to listen to her]].

* CringeComedy: ''All'' of "Zoey's Extraordinary Glitch," where Zoey's superpower goes haywire and causes her to start singing her own feelings... ''out loud''. And while she can hear background music and see choreography, the rest of the characters can't, and it often switches to their viewpoint. The scene where she awkwardly bursts into "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" in front of Leif and Joan (whom she secretly knows are having an affair) might drive some viewers to bury their head under their arms until it's over, but it's also pretty damn funny.

* HiddenDepths: Basically, Zoey can ''see'' peoples depths, expressed through song. She is often surprised by the revelation that people she dismissed as shallow or uncaring are just disguising their own intense emotions.

* NoAntagonist: There isn't a BigBad or even a VillainyFreeVillain causing the conflict here, the conflict is driven more by emotional forces, poor communication or Zoey's illness than anything malicious or even ''evil''. Sure, the world is no SugarBowl despite the colorful publicity and {{Dramedy}} setting.

* CrapsaccharineWorld: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]; the setting is no dystopia, but it's no utopia, either.

* CantHaveSexEver: Subverted when [[spoiler:Zoey and Max try to hook up. As you might imagine, sex is a very emotional experience for most people so Max pretty much immediately bursts into song and dance when things start getting hot and heavy. They eventually succeed, though]].

* CurseCutShort: Every episode has Zoey about to cuss before being cut by with the title.
