I just found out that one of the best T.V. shows ever is being released on DVD! Freaks and Geeks. This is an absolutely brilliant show that was on NBC for a very short time. It takes place in the seventies and follows a smart girl named Lindsay (played by Linda Cardellini who is now on E.R. and played Velma in the Scooby-Doo movie)and her freaky and geeky friends. It was critically acclaimed which of course it means that the general masses didn't get it and therefore didn't watch it. When it was cancelled, there was an uproar from a bunch of dedicated fans, but obviously wasn't enough for NBC to reneg on it's decision. The fans even had a website petition set up to save the show, but to no avail. The creators of the show were so touched by the fan response that they finally got a distribution deal to put the series on DVD. Yay!! It comes out April 6 and I will be first in line to buy it!
