Streaming TV shows can be overwhelming with so many different options to choose from, so The Warrior’s Katie Mercogliano ‘14 assembled a list to make things just a little bit easier.

Freaks and Geeks (Netflix)

Not only is this best on the list, but it is probably one of the greatest shows of all time. It is the ultimate cult classic. “Freaks and Geeks” started the careers of Seth Rogen, Jason Segel, Martin Starr, Philip Busy, Linda Cardellini, John Francis Daley, Samm Levine, Lizzy Caplan, Rashida Jones and most importantly, James Franco. The show follows Lindsay Weir (Cardellini) and Sam Weir (Daley) in their journey to fit in. Yes, it sounds cliché, but it’s not. In only 18 episodes (people are still dumbfounded this was canceled after just one season), each character is developed immensely. And out of all the characters (yes, including Franco’s classic lovable rebel, Daniel Desario) arguably the best comedic character ever was created, Starr’s Bill Haverchuck. A big claim to make, but it is true. There are countless reasons to watch this show, but to see fan-favorite, adorably hilarious Haverchuck dressed as the Bionic Woman for Halloween should be reason enough.

My So-Called Life (Hulu)

The amazing high school drama TV show that started them all. “My So-Called Life” starring Golden  Globe nominated Claire Danes and Oscar winning Jared Leto, was unlike any other teen show that came before it. It addressed serious issues, but rather than solving the issues at the end of the episode, they actually kept developing throughout the season. The show covered a large spectrum of serious issues, and the narration was incredibly well written and relatable. Also, Leto’s Jordan Catalano will probably go down in history as one of the best bad boys in television.

Undeclared (Netflix)

After the tragic end of Freaks and Geeks, Judd Apatow (“The 40 Year Old Virgin,” “Knocked Up,” “Pineapple Express”) lost another nearly perfect show after the first season as well. “Undeclared” stars Jay Baruchel as a lost young adult desperately trying to become self-aware in college. The show also stars Seth Rogen, and creates that balance of humor and substance Apatow has in his shows and films. Whether it’s due to poor time slots or just realizing its brilliance a little too late, this show was also canceled after the first season. While not quite as amazing as “Freaks and Geeks”, “Undeclared” is definitely worth watching.

21 Jump Street (Hulu)

No, not the Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum movie, but the classic 80s TV series. This was Johnny Depp’s big break, and it’s a must-watch. Depp plays an undercover cop in high school like the premise of the  movie, but unlike the film, the series covers issues like alcoholism, homophobia, AIDS, hate crimes, child abuse, drug abuse and sexual promiscuity. This show could have easily been a campy-after school special if not for Depp’s commanding presence.

Moone Boy (Hulu)

This quirky, family-centered comedy follows the Moone Family, focusing in on the youngest in the family, 12-year-old Martin, and his imaginary friend, Seán Murphy, played by hilarious actor, Chris O’Dowd. Set in rural Ireland in the late eighties/early nineties, it combines surrealism, comedy and family.  It has six episodes per season and its third season is being written currently.
