This week on the program, the CNIC Detour takes us back to college to work through those awkward, zany growing pains of living on our own, finding our identity, and never going to class or bothering with our actual education. From the desperate offices of MTV Animation comes a surprisingly touching, superbly crafted, and well-aged exploration of college life from the mind of a 19-year old who won a contest. It's Undergrads, and it is way more insightful and hilarious than you would expect. Plus, some unfortunate discussion about our cancelled episode 91 and we share our own uncomfortable college experiences.
Make sure to follow Pete William's Kickstarter campaign for the Undergrads movie for updates.
And here is a great article by Ben Cohen on the show's enduring popularity in Canada years after it flopped on MTV.
Episode covered for the podcast is Episode 6 "Roommates." Directed by Jerry Popowich. Written by Julie Rottenberg, Elisa Zuritsky, Josh A. Cagan & Andy Rheingold. Original Canadian airdate September 23, 2001.
