Happy birthday to actor Jason Segal (born January 18, 1980) who portrayed Nick Andopolis in the short-lived series "Freaks and Geeks". Set in the early 80's, it is one of the finest shows about high school life. It is also one of the few shows where a main character is a drummer.

In the show, Nick is a tragic figure - first up he dreams of being a famous rock drummer, completely oblivious to his utter lack of talent (as seen in this opening sequence).

His romance to Linda Cardellini's character is one of the central plots of the series. It realistically runs from puppy love to creepy stalker. In this scene, Nick is staying with her family after their break up - he and her father have a bonding moment over drums.
