Movie Reviews of Undeclared - The Complete Series
Movie Review: Fox Sucks
Summary: 5 Stars
The powers that be at Fox must be greedy, humorless dicks. They don't seem to understand what makes good television anymore. With the exception of shows like The Simpsons and That 70s show, Fox pretty much cans any good comedy that they broadcast. Between Undeclared, Futurama, Arrested Development, and pre-ressurection Family Guy, Fox has successfully managed to kill some of the best comedies to come out in the last decade.
Undeclared was really, really good. So good, in fact, that I found myself really caring about every character in the show. Even the minor characters, whose stories weren't as fleshed out, were well written and believable. The only complaint I would have is that the female characters never seemed as well-rounded as their male counterparts, usually seeming like cliches of typical college girls rather than entirely believable women.
I'd never previously seen Undeclared when I bought the DVD, so I was incredibly disappointed when I popped in Disc 4 to find out that I had already watched the last episode. You could see the last episode as a conclusion of sorts, albeit a very weak one, and it's obvious that it just got dumped by FOX before it even really had a chance to wrap up ideas set up in the 17 episodes. Still though, Undeclared was an awesome show that managed to have heart while still being thoroughly hilarious. Definately worth a look.
Summary of Undeclared - The Complete Series
From The Producer of Freaks And Geeks?College life as seen through the eyes of Steven Karp a freshman determined to reinvent himself at a new school. Faced with dilemmas as miserable as being "sexiled" to the rec room while roommates use the bedroom and as dire as confronting a girlfriend s jealous stalker-ex-boyfriend Steven and his new friends tackle the challenges of higher education. Named one of Time Magazine's top ten television shows of 2001 and praised for its "pitch perfect" casting. Undeclared is "one of the cum laude comedies of the new season... sneaky funny hoot with endearingly offbeat characters." (Los Angeles Times)All 17 episodes are included!System Requirements:Length: 375 minsFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS UPC: 826663124590 Manufacturer No: D4D31245"Only the good die young," a certain piano man once sang. He could've been talking about Undeclared, the hilarious, yet heartfelt college comedy from Judd Apatow (The Larry Sanders Show). Alas, FOX had even less patience than NBC and cancelled it after 16 episodes, rather than the 17 granted Apatow's other fan favorite, Freaks and Geeks.
Directed by Jake Kasdan (The Zero Effect), the pilot ("Prototype") sets the scene. Steven Karp (Jay Baruchel, Million Dollar Baby) is a nerdy 18-year-old who grew seven inches over the past year and is looking to make a new start at the University of North Eastern California. Well, good news, bad news. At his first party, he makes it with Lizzie (Carla Gallo, Carniv?le), the bubbly girl down the hall--then finds out she has a boyfriend. Worse yet, Steven's dad, Hal (singer/songwriter Loudon Wainwright III), crashes it to announce he's getting divorced. Fortunately, Hal hits it off with Steven's roommates: Marshall (Timm Sharp, Six Feet Under), Ron (Seth Rogen, Freaks and Geeks), and Brit chick magnet Lloyd (Charlie Hunnam, Nicholas Nickleby). Other regulars include Lizzie's boyfriend, Eric (Jason Segel, Freaks and Geeks), and roommate Rachel (Monica Keena, Entourage).
Steven's freshman year will be an eventful one. Aside from the loss of his virginity, he'll get his first job ("Jobs, Jobs, Jobs "), he'll meet Adam Sandler ("The Assistant"), he'll hire a speed freak (Will Ferrell) to write a term paper ("Addicts"), and his RA (Amy Poehler) will have a fling with his dad ("Hal and Hillary"). Other guests include Fred Willard ("So You Have a Boyfriend"), Mary Kay Place ("Parent's Weekend"), and Ben Stiller (the Jon Favreau-directed "Eric's POV"). This set includes all 16 episodes, plus one that wasn't broadcast ("God Visits") and an alternate, Ted Nugent-ified version of the second ("Full Bluntal Nugetry"). --Kathleen C. Fennessy
