Sarah's Square Roots

TV watchers of a certain age will remember Square Pegs, a Freaks and Geeks-like sitcom that, like that show, lasted only one season but lives on fondly in our memories.

It was the first time that we saw several future favorites, such as Jami Gertz, Tracy Nelson, the late Merritt Butrick and someone named Sarah Jessica Parker (who, in a recent interview with MTV, claims that her nerdy Pegs character, Patty Greene, grew up and moved to New York to become a writer named Carrie Bradshaw).

All twenty episodes have been collected for the first time on home video with the new DVD set Square Pegs - The Complete Series(click here to pre-order from Amazon.com), due out on May 20.
