The American Pie series is perhaps the most iconic series of teen sex comedies ever made. When the first movie came out in 1999, it was greeted as an affectionate updating of the classic eighties sex comedy formula, which gave us films like Porky’s, albeit with a classier, more sensitive spin. It helped popularize the “gross-out comedy,” which became one of the dominant comedy genres of the early 2000s before being replaced by the “Frat Pack” comedies starring Will Ferrell, Ben Stiller and others.
All in all, four theatrical American Pie movies and a slew of DTV spin-offs were made. The flagship series starred Jason Biggs as the clumsy Jim, who awkwardly pursues a foreign exchange student, Nadia (Shannon Elizabeth), but eventually falls off Alyson Hannigan’s band camp buddy, Michelle. Meanwhile, his buddies Kevin (Thomas Ian Nicholas), Paul (Eddie Kaye Thomas), Oz (Chris Klein), and, most iconically, Stifler (Seann William Scott) pursue their own conquests, while Stifler’s seductive mother (Jennifer Coolidge) and Jim's lovable dad (Eugene Levy) lurk in the background.
In this video, which is written, narrated and edited by Kier Gomes and produced by Tyler Nichols, we dig into the history behind the classic series and try to decide which of the four movies hold up and which (if any) don’t.
