Does a binary star system have interacting Goldilocks zones?

Do binary stars have individual planet systems, or do the two share one?
 Would a binary star system have any advantages or disadvantages in terms of potential life formation in the "Goldilocks" zone?

It depends.  If the stars are very far apart, they may have completely separate habitable zones that don't overlap.  But if they're close enough together that their habitable zones partly overlap, then any planets in one star's habitable zone will be in an orbit that comes pretty close to the other star.  This will probably be gravitationally unstable, and the planet is unlikely to last long after the formation of the stellar system, if it forms at all.
