The Inbetweeners
Damon Beesley · 2008
Those who remember the awkward years of adolescence can relive those painful days in this British comedy series, where the cringe-inducing humor arises from the ill-fated antics of its four protagonists.

However, despite their best efforts, the four hapless lads usually end up on the side of the nerds.
