I watched this show religiously when it was on.

Milla Jovovich has certainly had an interesting career.

Amen to that! Between this, the movies, and her music, it's always interesting.

My strongest memory of this show is when Parker tells Kubiak he has something on his face. Kubiak flicks something (unseen by the audience) off his face and an entire pepperoni pizza falls on the floor.

Kubiak is the best part of the show.

Synchronize Swatches!

The episode where the dad shows he has near supernatural memorization and math skills has always stuck with me. It came out of nowhere and was so weirdly perfectly explained as just knowing the price of stuff.

I love the episode where we find out that the dad was exactly like Parker when he was a teenager, down to the two friends and the watch synchronizing.

Fantastic show.

Daaaamn, this is a deep cut. Guess I know what I'm gonna have on in the background this week.

I wonder what he's up to now. I'm sure he's a great upstanding citizen.

I like to think Parker, Mikey and Jerry got houses next to each other and every weekend get together and prank call the elderly now former principal Musso. And Kubiak is clearly the CEO of Boeing.

It was derivative of Ferris Bueller but so much better than the Ferris TV show.

[–] FlyingSquid 1 points 1 month ago

Derivative, but it definitely did its own thing. It was a lot less like Ferris Bueller than it gets credit for. Sure, it took the skeleton of an idea of 'high school kid who essentially rules the school through deviousness' thing from the movie, but that's really about it.
