      <![CDATA[F&G is a very good show. Stream it on Netflix, you won't be disappointed. I wasn't really able to get all that into Breaking Bad. Dissolving bodies in muriatic acid by the third episode was a bit too dark even for me, but I'll probably revisit it at some point.

      <![CDATA[I haven't seen Breaking Bad myself so I understand.  But seriously, watch this show, it is only 18 episodes.  <br>
<br>
The only possible complaint I can think of is during one episode they showed some Atari 2600 games that didn't exist in 1980/81.<br>
<br>
I was surprised that the article didn't mention Shia Labeouf being in an episode.

      <![CDATA[For once I'm being sincerely ignorant. I didn't see Freaks & Geeks when it first ran, and never got around to watching it on DVD. (This even though I was in high school during the time when the series was set, as I notice from skimming the Wikipedia article.) <br>
<br>
I haven't seen "Breaking Bad" either. I'll watch both series just as soon as you all finish the entire run of my favorite show, "Commissario Montalbano."

      <![CDATA[So wonderful, this is.<br>
<br>
This quote from Apatow echoes exactly what goes through my head when I see a F and G alum in some other show/movie:<br>
"Whenever I see an opportunity to use any of the people from Freaks and Geeks, I do it. It’s a way of refusing to accept that the show was canceled. In my head, I can look at Knocked Up as just an episode of Seth’s character getting a girl pregnant. All of the movies relate in my mind in that way, as the continuous adventures of those characters."
