Decisions, decisions. Keep Zoey 101 on the air, even though series lead Jamie Lynn Spears is now the poster girl for teenage pregnancy, or pull one of cable's most popular youth-targeted series as a PR tactic? Nickelodeon thus far is opting for Plan A and sticking with its schedule to broadcast the remainder of Zoey 101's fourth and final season, which had wrapped production in September, says the Reporter.

As Whoopi Goldberg pointed out on Wednesday's The View, "Her character is her character, who she is who she is. This might be a discussion to have later, separating the people from the characters."

Switching back to real-life matters, a source tells Us that Jamie Spears is "furious" that ex-wife Lynne sold Jamie Lynn's story to OK!, and as such he refused to share in any profits. Spears' pop is "devastated" by his teen daughter's pregnancy, and "feels Jamie Lynn ruined her life," says the weekly.
