Freaks and Geeks is one of my all time favorite TV shows, and it's a damn shame that it only lasted one (magnificent) season. Linda Cardellini, James Franco, Seth Rogen, and Jason Segel served as key pieces to a nearly perfect cast. The final scene, in which Lindsay has fooled her parents into believing that she is leaving for an academic summit for two weeks when she is actually departing to follow The Grateful Dead on the road, is so well done and captures the bittersweet moment perfectly. The use of "Ripple" here provides a stunning and memorable ending to a brilliant show.
