I had the privelege to pick up "Freaks and Geeks" and "Police Squad," two series that never went beyond first season. And the more I watch them, the more I wonder why. Freaks and Geeks has some amazing synergy between the cast. The one guy that steals the show is Martin Starr; another guy you never heard of, but he reeks of Napoleon Dynamite before Napoleon Dynamite even existed. For Halloween, his Jewish buddy dresses up as Groucho; his other buddy as the robot Gord, and what does he go as?

Excellence. Sheer excellence.
Oh, and "Police Squad" is good, but that's a no-brainer.
