list of freaks and geeks characters
nbc and the creative directors of "freaks and geeks" did not have the same vision for the series. after the network picked up the "freaks and geeks" pilot, garth ancier replaced the old nbc network's president. ancier "didn't understand public school life" and its relevance because he went to a boarding school and then on to princeton. creator paul feig expressed the "irony of the situation" as everyone involved wanted "freaks and geeks" to be a success, but the network didn't understand the concept of realistically showcasing life as ordinary teenagers. jake kasdan and judd apatow had multiple arguments with the network concerning "lack of victories" in the script and that the characters needed to "be cool." the writers wanted to produce something that would represent the average high school experience, but the network wanted to produce something that would make high school seem cool. because the network did not think the series would be a success, they let the writers add things to the script that they "wouldn't have if they thought the show would resurface the next season," like the use of the phrase, "ambiguous genitalia." apatow said in 2014 that "everything i've done, in a way, is revenge for the people who cancelled "freaks and geeks"."
