Undeclared (2001)

Judd Apatow's follow-up to Freaks and Geeks moves the awkwardness to college freshman year, with Jay Baruchel as Steve Karp and Seth Rogen, Charlie Hunnam and Carla Gallo as the dorm-mates around him. Loudon Wainwright III steals scenes as Steve's newly divorced dad, who keeps turning up on campus. It is looser and broader than Freaks and Geeks, more sitcom than heartbreak, and that suits a lighter night. Fox ran one 17-episode season in 2001 and 2002, airing episodes out of order and leaving one unaired, so watch it in production order on disc or streaming. There is no proper finale; the year simply ends where the show did.
