For fans of 80's pop culture and time travel you should check out this long forgotten 2002 comedy on the WB network "Do Over". It's kind of a "Freaks and Geeks" but more comedy. It stars Penn Badgley (currently on the Netflix series "You") as Joel Larsen a single, depressed paper salesman disappointed with how his life turned out in 2002. However, a shock from defibrillation paddles sends Joel back to 1981 as his 14-year-old self. He wakes up in his teenage body, but with all his adult memories from 2002 intact. I just posted the premier pilot episode of the series that lasted 15 total episodes on Youtube.

This is one of those shows where you ask "Why was it cancelled" (a la "freaks and geeks") but the logical reason is most likely "Do Over" was placed in a very competitive time slot against "Survivor" and "Scrubs". I'll be adding more episodes in the near future. BTW, the versions on my channel are the best quality of "Do Over" you will find on youtube.
