15) Dazed and Confused (1993)

Richard Linklater's 1993 comedy, set in the seventies, reorganised quite a few rules for the Hollywood coming-of-age drama, and a TV series based on Dazed and Confused could do the same by updating the story to suit new-age audience taste. A new story every season in a high school set-up during the '70s could project diversity in terms of characters. The show could explain a teenager's experiences while dealing with peer pressure, friendships, identity search, and handling adult expectations. The series could also talk of teen angst and rebellion in terms of contemporary society, just as it could focus on initiation ceremonies, first parties, and rebel escapades. The series would be apt for lovers of the film as well as presentday viewers with a mix of comedy, drama, and a dash of retro music.
