Freaks and Geeks

Debut: January 01, 1999

Ended: January 01, 2000

The universal experience of teenagehood as lived by the regular old freaks and geeks in a Michigan high school, circa 1980, is the subject of this wistful comedy-drama executive-produced by Emmy-winner Judd Apatow and series creator Paul Feig. Revolving around the lives of freak and geek siblings Lindsay and Sam Weir (Linda Cardellini, John Daley), the show studies the everyday fears, humiliations and little triumphs of adolescents past, present and, no doubt, future,too.
