The 'Common Knowledge' section now includes a 'Series' field. Enter the name of the series to add the book to it. Works can belong to more than one series. In some cases, as with Chronicles of Narnia, disagreements about order necessitate the creation of more than one series. Tip: If the series has an order, add a number or other descriptor in parenthesis after the series title (eg., 'Chronicles of Prydain (book 1)'). By default, it sorts by the number, or alphabetically if there is no number. If you want to force a particular order, use the | character to divide the number and the descriptor. So, '(0|prequel)' sorts by 0 under the label 'prequel.' What isn't a series?Series was designed to cover groups of books generally understood as such (see Wikipedia: Book series). Like many concepts in the book world, 'series' is a somewhat fluid and contested notion. A good rule of thumb is that series have a conventional name and are intentional creations, on the part of the author or publisher. For now, avoid forcing the issue with mere 'lists' of works possessing an arbitrary shared characteristic, such as relating to a particular place. Avoid series that cross authors, unless the authors were or became aware of the series identification (eg., avoid lumping Jane Austen with her continuators). Also avoid publisher series, unless the publisher has a true monopoly over the 'works' in question. So, the Dummies guides are a series of works. But the Loeb Classical Library is a series of editions, not of works. |
'Freaks go all the way.' Though it only lasted for one season, Freaks and Geeks quickly became a cult favorite — and kicked off the careers of some of Hollywood's biggest stars.
The teen comedy was developed by Judd Apatow and Paul Feig, and premiered on NBC during the fall of 1999. Halo: The Flood. Set in a 1980s Detroit suburb, the series follows teenager Lindsay Weir (Linda Cardellini), who falls into a crowd of slacker 'freaks,' and her brother Sam (John Francis Daley), who attempts to navigate the ins and outs of high school with his 'geek' friends.

'We did our infamous two weeks with the writers locking ourselves in a room and telling personal stories. I wrote a list of questions for everybody to answer: ‘What was the best thing that happened to you in high school? What was the worst thing that happened to you in high school? Who were you in love with and why?'' Feig recalled during a 2014 interview with Vanity Fair, describing the writing process for the acclaimed series. 'That's where most of our stories came from. Weirder stuff happens to people in real life than it does on TV. It was a personal show for me and I wanted it to be personal for everybody else.'
Despite its early cancelation, the NBC comedy received three Emmy nominations, was featured as one of Time magazine's '100 Greatest Shows of All Time' in 2007 and left behind a legacy like no other. To this day, Cardellini remembers exactly what drew her to her character, Lindsay.
'Here's this girl who desperately wants to be away from her parents and what they know her as, but at the same time truly does not want to disappoint or rebel against them and really loves them,' she told Vanity Fair in 2014. 'It was a more interesting approach than all the other teenagers I was reading, who just hated their parents.'
While Apatow and Feig both went on to have highly successful careers behind the camera, and often continued working with some of the Freaks and Geeks stars, they've each kept a special place in their hearts for the short-lived show.
'Even to this day, I think I didn't want to admit that Freaks and Geeks was cancelled,' Apatow teased during a March 2014 talk at the Paley Center for Media in Beverly Hills. 'Everything I've done, in a way, is revenge for the people who cancelled Freaks and Geeks.'
