![]() Freaks and Geeks is an American teenage comedy television series that aired in 1999-2000 but was cancelled after only the 18th episode due to lack of popularity. It is a shame the show was cancelled after only one season, because the show would have made it far if it was more advertised. This hilarious comedy stars a young Jason Segel, James Franco, Seth Rogan, Busy Phillips, and Linda Cardellini. The plot revolves around Lindsay and her brother Sam Weirr; two proper, academically proficient teenagers who attend McKinley High School during the 1980-1981 year, and Lindsay’s transition from a smart, proper young lady and star of the mathletes; (a geek), to an army-jacket wearing teenager who starts hanging out with the troublesome burnouts; (the freaks). While Lindsay starts hanging with the “freaks”, which causes friction between her and her parents, her old “geek” friends are worried about her “throwing her life away”, and her brother and his geeky friends explore an entirely different part of the social universe and try to fit in. This funny, quirky show is great for watching with friends or family and will draw you in with the very first episode. Try it out! I’m sure you’ll love it! -Gabriella Hall
