For this bonus episode of our special retrospective season, we’re looking back to our season on the awesome movie year of 1999, the runner-up year in our audience choice poll, for teen comedy American Pie. Directed by Paul Weitz from a screenplay by Adam Herz and starring Jason Biggs, Thomas Ian Nicholas, Chris Klein, Eddie Kaye Thomas, Seann William Scott, Tara Reid and Mena Suvari, American Pie was a box-office hit that kicked off a long-running franchise.

The contemporary reviews quoted in this episode come from Roger Ebert (https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/american-pie-1999), Owen Gleiberman in Entertainment Weekly (https://ew.com/article/1999/07/09/american-pie-2/), and Kirk Honeycutt in The Hollywood Reporter (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/american-pie-review-movie-1999-1223085/).
