I watched that ‘70s show for this assignment. All of the main characters in this show sar of in the ninth grade. So they are all in the adolescent phase of development. You can see many different physical and cognitive developments that they are going through. It is and excellent example of what these changes in high schools. The first thing I saw while watching this show was sexual behavior and sexual preference. Kelso is shown to have a sexual interest in Jacky also Eric has feeling for Donna. It is implicated that Kelso has had sexual intercourse with Jacky. Another thing that is very prevalent is the use of drugs in this show. One of the main aspects of this is the teenager’s use of marijuana. They are clearly have a desire to experience

When comparing and contrasting the two television shows, Freaks and Geeks (1999), and the Gilmore Girls (2000), these are definitely two of the best shows about what it was like for an adolescent to be in high school in the past 3 or 4 decades. When I was a teenager in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s, the shows that spoke to us about high school life were Eight is enough (1977) and James at 15 (1977). These shows dealt with issues of the time as well, but with Freaks and Geeks, the writers really were able to depict life in 1980 for young teenagers. Even though I was in my early 30’s when it came out, it still took me back to that time and brought back that teenage angst. It goes to show that no matter how old a person is, what era they grew up in, or are growing up in, the issues that adolescents deal with on a daily basis are still there, the playing field may just change a little bit.

The 1970’s was a time for radical change. Within the radical change was feminism, sex and sexuality, and drugs. Although this may not have been part of everyone’s lives, it was there, and it was prevalent. However, in 1970’s television none of this was talked about. Even though the 1970’s was a turning point in censorship in American television, the ideas and values were still moderately the same as the previous decades.
