Hall of Fame: Freaks and Geeks
Most of you by now have seen Judd Apatow’s masterpiece Freaks and Geeks. For those that haven’t, Freaks and Geeks was a shamefully short-lived comedy/drama that originally aired on NBC in 1999. Due to some poor ratings, only 18 episodes were ever produced. Freaks and Geeks was a show about “the other” people in high school.
I for one still can’t really figure out the ending of Galactica. It was great, just confusing as all hell.
I really wanted to like this show, but I just couldn’t get into it. I think I watched the first 6 episodes and just found the characters grating.
Ash, I feel the same way about Galactica, but I enjoyed the ride.
I think the characters in Galactica were just amazing. It was good enough for my crusty old father to fall in love with a space opera, which isn’t his thing at all.
Something about Caprica always turned me off. I think its because I already knew the end of the story.
Galatica went a little nuts with the everyone is a cylon thing and the human/cylon love stories. Chief Tyrol was one of my favorite characters and I so wanted him to get a break at some point in his life.
