UNDECLARED on DVD August 16th!
Undeclared is hands down one of my favorite television series' of all time. I've seen it so many times I can recite half the episodes off by heart and even have a bootleg copy of the unaired episode. I know the order the episodes are actually *supposed* to be watched in, and generally loves it sumpin fierce.
It's austensibly Freaks & Geeks in college, and compacted into a fast paced half hour. I know that I especially, and also a great deal of my friends could identify with the lead character Steven, who is trying to get out of his geeky high school persona. Anyone reading this site may find themselves identifying with him too.
The series boasted a number of excellent and well-used guest stars at the top of their games, including Will Ferrell, Kyle (Tenacious D) Gass, Ben Stiller, Mike White (writer of and actor in Orange County, The Good Girl and School of Rock), Adam Sandler and his usual entourage, Amy (Upright Citizens Brigade, SNL, Arrested Development) Poehler, Fred (Best in Show, A Mighty Wind) Willard, and half the cast of Freaks and Geeks.
Just trust me, it doesn't get any better than this. But it comes close, as on May 24th NewsRadio seasons 1&2 are, after a year and a half delay, finally released, and June 14th marks the release of Northern Exposure season 3. The first season that's more than 8 episodes. (23!)

I thought Freaks and Geeks was much better done. But I will still put this on my amazon.com wishlist.

Yeah I have the Freaks & Geeks DVD set too. I love them both in different but essentially equal proportions. I think of Freaks and Geeks as being more Dramedy and Undeclared as one of the only good sitcoms there is.
