Anyone seen this show? I just did a marathon of it yesterday during the thunderstorm here, and all I can say is wow. This is one of the best shows I have ever seen, and I didn't even know it was on back when it aired (Great job, NBC).
THe characters are really funny, and yet the show has quite serious storylines at times. And when it gets funny - I haven't laughed so hard at a tv show in a long time. Just thinking of Bill makes me crack up.
It was played on E4 a few years ago on the downlow.
Incredible show. Loved it.
"When we were talking to one of the executives at the BBC. And he said, 'Now hold on, this man is so incompetent why wouldn't he be fired?' and I said 'Go and take a look around this building. Just go and knock on a few doors.'" - Ricky Gervais
Freaks & Geeks is fantastic. I loved it when it aired on TV a few years ago, and I snatched up the DVD set when it came out. It's really too bad it only lasted one season. The critics loved it, but the general public ignored it.
It's such a shame, though, because I swear to god I never even heard of it back when it aired.
I guess the only good thing that came out of it ending so soon was that we never had to endure the crappy ends that plague so many shows that go on too long.
