How Freaks and Geeks Got Geek Culture AND Freak Culture

Freaks and Geeks launched the careers of huge stars like Seth Rogen, Jason Segel, James Franco, Linda Cardellini, and Busy Phillips. It also established executive-producer Judd Apatow as a major Hollywood force, and became a calling card for writer and creator Paul Feig. But what is it about this show that makes it a classic? The story about geek-turned-freak Lindsay Weir and her just-plain-geek younger brother Sam, along with their very different cliques of friends, takes a clear-eyed specific look at geek culture before it took over the mainstream – as well as freak culture, which at that time had very rarely been explored onscreen.
