The best shows you've never heard of

1:Freaks and geeks
The best high school show EVER!  This show isn't about the cheerleaders, or the hot guy, this show is about the freaks and geeks (duh).  The freaks are stoners, teachers hate them, other kids call them burnouts.  They are however, a close knit group of friends. The geeks don't get makeovers and become magically hot.  They are picked last for gym, and made fun of.  But in the end all the geeks are really friends who support each other.  This is my all time favorite show
WATCH IT! <- link to watch the show for free (on youtube)


2: The undergrads
A funny animation about college.  This show fallows 4 best friends from high school on their journey to college.  This show fallows typical freshmen problems (so I've been told-I'm only in high school remember)  This show got me excited for college and inspired me to get good grades me Jr year (hear that moms?)

3: God the Devil and Bob
This show is amazing!  It's hilarious and in NO way anti-religious* (the reason for it's cancellation).  God, The Devil and Bob was created by Matthew Carlson, the man behind Malcolm in the Middle, for NBC in 2000.  If anything it's pro religion.  The story is God things we're screwed up and wants to destroy humanity, but if one person is worth saving he will not.  He makes a game of it and lets the devil choose, he choices Bob.  God tries to get Bob to do the right thing and the devil temps him.  
*fyi I'm catholic and was in no way offended

4: Undeclared
Made by same people who brought you freaks and geeks.  WARNING (THIS SHOW DOESN'T GET GOOD TILL THE 9TH EPISODE)  This again tackles amusing college problems, liking your best friend, having a crappy roommate, etc.  It's funny at times (the funniest episode is 10) and romantic at times.  Overall it's a pretty good show

the Voice: DIA

OK I used to LOVE Dia from the voice.  I thought she was cute sweet and had a killer voice.  I also thought she was simply a writer who could sing.  I was WRONG!
DIA IS A LIAR
Dia has been in the band, Meg and Dia since 2004.  They were signed to Warner Bros. Records on February 19, 2007.  They went on many tours including the popular Vans Warped Tour.  One of the bands songs, "Roses" was featured on the TMNT movie soundtrack.  Another one of the bands song, "The Mighty R-E-A-L", became the official anthem for Real Salt Lake of Major League Soccer.  In 2010 the band was dropped from there label. The band recorded a new record, independent of a label with producer Charlie Vel.  The bands most resent album was Cocoon, released on April 5, 2011, this is the band's 4th studio album titled.
A little video comparison...

Meg and dia

WHY THIS UPSETS ME 
  • I FEEL LIKE DIA ALREADY GOT HER CHANCE WHY TAKE SOMEONE ELSE'S (SHE HAS 4 STUDIO ALBUMS)
  • I FEEL LIED TO 
  • I FEEL MANIPULATED
  • BEFORE I WOULD HAVE BOUGHT A DIA ALBUM NOW I NEVER WOULD 
  • DIA IS A PROFESSIONAL COMPETING AGAINST ARMATURES AND THAT HARDLY SEAMS FAIR
