Synopsis:
Adam
Herz, the creator of the hit film "American Pie," serves up this
coming-of-age comedy featuring meek high school freshman Andy "Fish"
Troutner (Kieran Culkin, "The Cider House Rules"), who hopes to
join the cool crowd as he enters high school. His father is a brain
surgeon, surprisingly without much of a brain, and his mother is
a happy homemaker who doesn't like to make waves.
Fish shares
his daily life with his two best friends, the wise-beyond-his-years
Henry Krakowski (Kyle Sabihy) and Hazard (Taylor Handley), a personality
defined by his name alone.
Also
populating Fish’s world at school are his older brother Pete (Will
Friedle, Boy Meets World), a recent college grad who joins
the teaching staff; the oddball drama teacher, Mr. Hopkins (Andy
Dick, NewsRadio); and the attractive English teacher, Miss
Eastwood (Kristin Lehman). Joe Flaherty (Freaks and Geeks)
and Molly Cheek ("American Pie") also star as Fish’s quirky parents.
But
the lovestruck Fish’s most difficult hurdle will be to catch the
attention of the beautiful Jess Riley (Katherine Ellis, Malcolm
in the Middle) -- who barely knows he exists.
