  • I love this show! Someone put a sticker with it's logo thing on one of the handdryers in the bathroom at college and I smile everytime I see it....then people look at me wierd and when I try to explain it to them, I just end up feeling old.

  • Simply one of the best if not the best television dramas of all time. Perfect casting. Perfect writing. NBC cancelled it. Fuck you NBC.

    Great show. I'd imagine most of the people who post here can relate to these characters in some way. This was a Jud Apatow written show, and a lot of the actors went on to be in his movies, including James Franco and Seth Rogen, and Jason Segel. It's got his writing style all over it. I watched the whole season on dvd last year after I borrowed it from a friend and would watch it again.
  • I loved that show. One of the best ever. That and My So-Called Life only lasted one season and were stellar shows. Stupid NBC.

    Awesome show. Very funny with a great cast. Apatow is a genius.

    Another short-lived Apatow show that not many know about was "Undeclared".

    One of my all-time favorite shows. Very sincere and un-cliche (for the most part)

    Freaks and Geeks was brilliant. It was a travesty that it was cancelled. Now the girl who played the bitchy blonde one is in the Sarah Connor Chronicles.

    I highly recommend getting Life As We Know It and Undeclared. Both are absolutely great, better than Freaks And Geeks. Life As We Know It is one of my favorite shows ever. Even though it only lasted 13 episodes before it was cancelled, I watched the series probably about 3 times now.

    It's currently showing on a cable TV station in Australia on Saturday mornings. I love it.
