Anyone else remember this show? It ran for one season on NBC I think it was. It starred alot of famous people now.

It had a Young Seth Rogen,James Franco, Jason Segal and a bunch of other people from Apatow produced movies.

It also had Linda Cardellini and Busy Phillips.

I remember seeing it back when it aired way back in 1999-2000. I think believe it was that long ago.

I'm watching some eps on youtube and its weird to see what guys like Franco,Rogen and Segal looked like and acted.

I saw it goes for about 45 dollars for the whole series. If i ever see it cheap and I have the money i'd get it in a heart beat.
 
I have it on DVD. One of my favorite TV series'.
 
Yeah, I remember it. I liked it. I don't remember Seth Rogan though. :huh: I do remember the others you mentioned. The little guy who was L.C.'s brother has a recurring role on Bones now. It's weird to see him all grown up.
 
I just finished watching the whole first season. Awesome show.

I remember seeing it on TV, and i remember thinking it was funny. But then it got canceled or whatever and I just completly forogt about it.

Now i want to watch Undeclared.
 
I saw Undeclared (an Apatow show) but never Freaks and Geeks. I must watch this show! It's expensive, but like TAC said, if the price drops I would get it.
 
I bought this show ages ago, and watched maybe one episode, and then never watched the rest. And then Apatow and crew became famous, and I'm like, "Maybe I should watch this now."

This is him back then.

A young Ben Foster used to be in it aswell. He played a mentally retared boy. He looked really young and different.

F+G was an amazing show. It really had the Apatow heart going underneath all the comedy. Plus the acting was amazing. Undeclared was more of an out and out comedy but still one of my favorite shows of all time.
 
You know, TAC, I might actually have been thinking of somebody other than SR the other night. Hmm.

Anyway, I think F and G was better than some of their movies. :up: Though I haven't seen them all.
 
Franco's character is too funny in this show.
 
One of the greatest shows ever. Real f'cking shame they cancelled it!

I know but shows that suck hard like Gossip Girl are still around after horrible first season ratings.

But Apatow and crew have got their revenge.

the difference is that even though the ratings suck for Gossip Girl, it's good enough for CW. But Fox, on the other hand, always cancel shows before they can find an audience. Such a shame too.

F&G wasn't on Fox i think. I think it was on NBC. but i could be wrong.


Gossip Girls ratings are so bad they're out of the top 100 shows at like 111 behind the shows i never heard of.

oh really? yeah I think you're right. F&G was on NBC. Maybe they had a higher standard of how first season ratings should be and it didn't live up to par?

They just keep gossip girl cause it has hot looking people on it. High school is not like that. Its way more like F&G was. I was in high school at the time it came out.
 
I'm watching the ep called "We've got spirit"

and a young Shia LaBaeuf has a cameo as the school mascot who gets hurt.

I believe I was in 8th grade when this show came out.
