Square Pegs is a High School sitcom on CBS from 1982 about a pair of "unpopular" teen girls, Patty and Lauren, struggling to fit in with the "popular" kids at school. Joining them in the struggle are two teen boys, Marshall (who hopes to become the Class Clown) and Johnny Slash (who happens to be talented at a lot of things but is too much of a Cloudcuckoolander to appreciate it).Despite its very short runtime, the show retains a cult following to this day. For everyone else, it's best known for unleashing Sarah Jessica Parker on an unsuspecting populace. | |

| Square Pegs / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Among the draws of the show were the ubercool guest stars. Bill Murray. Coolest substitute teacher ever. Also, Johnny's band has that "guy who drummed for The Doors". | |

Status Quo Is God | |
| Square Pegs / int_a6e8221e | comment |
Status Quo Is God: Just when Lauren thinks the four have found a way to get in with the cool kids, something happens to embarrass either themselves or the popular clique, stranding them back at the losers' table. Also Failure Is the Only Option. Lauren - who is obsessed with popularity - never achieves it while Patty - who just wants to survive high school - has more opportunities to be popular at school (but doesn't because her best friend Lauren will get jealous). | |

The Glasses Gotta Go: Patty wears huge geeky glasses, which Lauren keeps telling her she needs to ditch in order to attract cute guys. But Patty is Blind Without 'Em, and inevitably she goes back to wearing them. | |
