Feb 14, 2022This is the best TV show I have seen in my life. Full review might be coming soon.

Sep 04, 2021Greatest season of any TV show of all time

May 20, 2021With all the talent here, to me Martin Star's Bill is the standout in this show. I knew a "Bill" you knew a "Bill" we've all known a "Bill" There only one disappointment with this and it's huge......that we didn't get more. The prospect of what could have been is heartbreaking. However....if the show had been a success the careers of people like James Franco and Seth Rogen may have turned out very different. The show is so good I can't really say anything other than WATCH IT. Linda Cardinelli would be a star now if the show had continued.

Feb 12, 2021Perhaps the most endearing, well-aged, and paramount tv series to be cancelled after only one season, Freaks and Geeks truly is more a sensation to watch than ever. Despite its setting in the early 80's and related soundtrack (featuring the likes of The Grateful Dead, Billy Joel, and others), Freaks and Geeks' material pertaining to the high school experience is universal for any age group, especially as it has such an understanding of the social dichotomies. Yes, the teenage characters are essentially divided into two groups, but the rendering of these so-called "freaks and geeks" is anything but stereotypical, and while extraordinarily funny, the show never falters in terms of realism or sensitivity. There's plenty of drama to be had here, with the writers delving into serious subjects that still aren't regularly addressed on U.S. television, and the show also handles the realities of sex and drugs amongst American youth while keeping it modest enough to appease the FCC, but never do the tactics feel like sugarcoating. Watching Freaks and Geeks now, the series cast essentially reads as a who's-who of today's comedy A-listers, and not just of the main cast (which of course includes Seth Rogen, Jason Segel, and James Franco), but numerous cameos throughout the show as well (which includes Liz Caplan, Rashida Jones, and Shia LaBeouf), and the show undeniably had some of the best child acting to ever grace the small screen. It's sickening to think that any station could abruptly cancel a tv series as special as this one, but we can all be thankful that everyone involved went on to have such flourishing careers. Still, even amongst masterstrokes like Bridesmaids, and Superbad, it's still logical to feel that Freaks and Geeks really was the best entry in the entire Apatow library, and now that it's streaming on Hulu (yes, with all the copyrighted music in tact!) it's the perfect time to watch and rewatch this gem.

Jan 26, 2021I graduated high school in 1984, which makes me exactly Sam's age in the show. The walk down memory lane is fun, but what makes this show great — even rewatching it now 20 years later — is how real it is. And to paraphrase Francis Ford Coppola, it's not just a TV show about high school, it IS high school. The emotions, the various versions of awkwardness they ALL go through, the stupid social situations we're all forced to endure at that age — they felt, and still feel, spot on. Add to that the fact that so many cast and crew have gone on to be major forces in Hollywood, and it's just a joy to watch this lovely little show. (I've now shared the first two episodes with my wife, and she said "It's a shame they couldn't have kept this series going!")

Dec 08, 2020This series hit deep on all the nostalgia and growing pains I've experienced and all that I haven't. It made itself fully relatable even for all the people that related to nothing in it. But, man, I related to a lot of this, which often made it hard to watch. This was such a fantastic show and it's so, so deeply saddening that there will never be any more of it. What a perfect cast, too. This show made me love Linda Cardellini.

Sep 13, 2020I didn't understand why this show is as popular as it is at first but it really stepped up its game in the second part of the season. The characters are layered, their relationships unexpected and complex and they tackle some really important issues. It's still quite 90s in a lot of ways - storytelling, directing style, subject matter, pace - but I do get it now.

Aug 11, 2020All around great show and future stars in their budding.

Jul 06, 2020I'll never understand why this show was never renewed, it was amazingly pee your pants funny. It would be nice if they tried a remake of the show
