Felicity: Season 01
Running Time: 60 min.

Many young girls go off to college, but not all for the same reason. In the case of Felicity Porter (Keri Russell), her decision to enroll as a pre-med student at University of New York in Greenwich Village was motivated by a high-school crush. Enamored of fellow student Ben Covington (Scott Speedman), Felicity trails him all the way to the U. of N.Y., only to find that he isn't interested in her. Even so, our heroine decides to stay, and thus Season One of Felicity gets under way. And what a freshman year it is! No sooner does Felicity become best friends with another freshman, Julie Emrick (Amy Jo Johnson), than Julie herself gets involved with Ben. As for Felicity's mysterious, somewhat sinister roommate Meghan Rotundi (Amanda Foreman) -- just try to find her! But Felicity won't be lonely, certainly not so long as her dorm advisor Noel Crane (Scott Foley) carries a torch for her. Alas, Noel goes back to his former girlfriend, Hannah (Jennifer Garner), but Felicity isn't flying solo for long; in fact, by mid-term she has lost her virginity to an art student named Eli. Amazingly, with all this going on, Felicity still manages to do her homework and hold down a job at a café called Dean & DeLuca, where her gay boss Javier (Ian Gomez) is more than willing to offer a shoulder to cry on -- at least until Javier moves back to Spain near the end of the season (the better for actor Gomez to accept a role on a different series, Norm). Season one wraps up as Ben and Julie break up, whereupon Ben invites Felicity to take a summer-long cross-country trip with him. Felicity is certainly receptive to taking up with Ben again, but she isn't keen on hurting the feelings of Noel, who called it quits with Hannah and has been dating Felicity steadily -- nor those of her pal Julie. School lets out for summer break, and the decision is left to Felicity whether to go on the road trip with Ben or accept a free ticket to Europe for a chance to spend time with Noel on an important summer graphic-design internship.
