'''''Felicity''''' is an American [[Drama (film and television)|drama]] television series created by [[J. J. Abrams]] and [[Matt Reeves]] and produced by [[Imagine Entertainment|Imagine Television]] and [[ABC Signature|Touchstone Television]] for [[the WB]]. [[Brian Grazer]] and [[Ron Howard]] were executive producers through [[Imagine Entertainment]].

The series revolves around the college experiences of the title character, [[List of Felicity characters#Felicity Porter|Felicity Porter]] (portrayed by [[Keri Russell]]), as she attends the "University of New York" (based on [[New York University]]), across the country from her home in [[Palo Alto, California]]. The show ran for four seasons from September 29, 1998, to May 22, 2002, with each season corresponding to the traditional American university divisions of [[freshman]], [[sophomore]], [[Junior (education year)|junior]], and [[Senior (education)|senior]] years.

In 2007, ''Felicity'' was one of ''[[Time (magazine)|Time]]'' magazine's "All-''Time'' 100 Best TV Shows".<ref name="Time100">{{cite magazine |last=Poniewozik |first=James |author-link=James Poniewozik |date=September 6, 2007 |title=The 100 Best TV Shows of All-''Time'' |magazine=[[Time (magazine)|Time]] |url=https://time.com/collection/all-time-100-tv-shows/ |access-date=May 25, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071013000728/https://www.time.com/time/specials/2007/article/0,28804,1651341_1659188_1652056,00.html |archive-date=October 13, 2007}}</ref> [[AOL TV]] named ''Felicity'' one of the "Best School Shows of All Time".<ref>{{cite web |title=Best School Shows of All Time |url=http://www.aoltv.com/2008/08/26/best-school-shows |work=AOL TV |access-date=September 14, 2012 |date=August 26, 2008 |archive-date=July 18, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180718205030/http://www.aoltv.com/2008/08/26/best-school-shows/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> In June 2010, ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'' named Felicity Porter one of the "100 Greatest Characters of the Last 20 Years".<ref>{{cite magazine |title=The 100 Greatest Characters of the Last 20 Years: Here's our full list! |url=https://ew.com/article/2010/06/01/100-greatest-characters-of-last-20-years-full-list/ |magazine=Entertainment Weekly |access-date=July 7, 2012 |first=Adam B. |last=Vary |date=June 1, 2010}}</ref>

==Plot==
{{Main|List of Felicity episodes}}
{{:List of Felicity episodes}}
The series opens at Felicity's high school graduation, where she asks [[List of Felicity characters#Ben Covington|Ben Covington]], a classmate on whom she has a crush, to sign her [[yearbook]]. Moved by his comment that he wished they had gotten to know each other further, she changes her education plans completely, deciding to follow Ben to New York rather than attend [[Stanford University]] as a pre-med student. Felicity's overbearing parents, concerned about Felicity's seemingly rash decision, come to New York to try to persuade her to return home and "get back on track". Felicity has second thoughts about her decision, but soon realizes that she came not only to follow Ben, but to discover her true inner self.

While Felicity works to sort out her emotions, she continues the basic motions of student life and moves into her dorm. There, she meets the resident advisor [[List of Felicity characters#Noel Crane|Noel Crane]]. Eventually, the two develop a romantic relationship, and the [[love triangle]] among Felicity, Ben, and Noel forms the basic dramatic conflicts in the show throughout the series.

A number of other characters appear and play large roles in Felicity's life. Her roommate for the first two years is [[List of Felicity characters#Meghan Rotundi|Meghan Rotundi]], a [[Goth subculture|goth]] [[Wiccan]] who occasionally casts spells on Felicity and others. [[List of Felicity characters#Julie Emrick|Julie Emrick]] is one of Felicity's best friends, as is [[List of Felicity characters#Elena Tyler|Elena Tyler]], who often takes classes with Felicity. Felicity also has male friends, including [[List of Felicity characters#Sean Blumberg|Sean Blumberg]], who is always trying to produce new off-kilter inventions, and [[List of Felicity characters#Javier Clemente Quintata|Javier Clemente Quintata]], who manages the [[Dean & DeLuca]] where Felicity works for most of her college career.

A recurring episode opener of the show is a stark camera shot of Felicity sitting in a dormitory room or apartment holding a tape recorder, recalling events in order to make a cassette tape to send to an old friend named [[List of Felicity characters#Recurring#Sally Reardon|Sally Reardon]] (voiced by [[Janeane Garofalo]]). This occasionally provides a method for Felicity to narrate an entire episode. At the end of episodes like this, Felicity is often shown to be listening to a tape that Sally has sent in reply.

==Production==

===Setting===
''Felicity'' was filmed in part in New York City, and is set at the fictional University of New York (UNY), based on [[New York University]] (NYU). Like NYU, UNY is located in [[Greenwich Village]] near [[Washington Square Park]], and the school is an important part of the show. Although like other universities, NYU normally welcomes being mentioned in film or on television as free [[product placement]], the university refused permission for the show to use its name, stating that "[t]he negatives kind of outweighed the positives".<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1998/09/02/nyregion/nyu-says-no-thanks-to-star-role-in-a-sitcom.html |title=N.Y.U. Says, 'No, Thanks' To Star Role in a Sitcom |work=New York Times |date=September 2, 1998 |access-date=April 27, 2012 |last=Gates |first=Anita}}</ref>

===Writer's age===
In 1999, a publicly hyped young writer for the show, [[Riley Weston]], was disclosed as a fraud for claiming to be much younger than she truly was. At the age of 32, she began marketing herself to television studios as a recent high school graduate, passing off her husband as her older brother. She was soon hired by the WB as a writer for ''Felicity''.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1998/10/17/arts/tv-writer-32-passed-for-19-bloom-is-off-her-contract.html |title=TV Writer, 32, Passed for 19; Bloom Is Off Her Contract |access-date=May 25, 2022 |first=Bernard |last=Weinraub |date=October 17, 1998 |work=[[The New York Times]]}}</ref> Hailed as a [[child prodigy]] and "wunderkind",<ref>{{cite web |last=Elber |first=Lynn |title=Teen Wunderkind TV Writer Unmasked |url=https://apnews.com/a4d19d20f2806b28b2410b183234158a |work=Associated Press News |date=October 15, 1998 |access-date=March 21, 2014}}</ref> she was featured on ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]''{{'}}s October 1998 list of the "100 Most Creative People in Entertainment", which described her as an up-and-coming 19-year-old. Shortly thereafter, she was offered a six-figure screenwriting deal with Disney.<ref name="Variety">{{cite news |url=https://variety.com/1998/tv/news/old-enough-to-know-better-1117481473/ |title=Old enough to know better |access-date=May 25, 2022 |first=Jenny |last=Hontz |date=October 15, 1998 |publisher=Variety}}</ref>

===Time-slot and hairstyle changes===
In the summer of 1999, after filming the first season,{{r|owen20000121}} ''Felicity'' star Russell—known for what ''The New York Times'' described as "[t]hat glorious head of voluminous golden backlit hair"<ref name="gates20000121">{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2000/01/21/movies/tv-weekend-entering-the-lovelorn-zone-felicity-s-fifth-dimension.html?pagewanted=all&src=pm |title=Entering the Lovelorn Zone: Felicity's Fifth Dimension |work=The New York Times |date=January 21, 2000 | access-date=January 26, 2013 |last=Gates |first=Anita}}</ref>—sent the show's producers a photo wearing a short-haired wig. They panicked before learning that it was a joke but then suggested to the actress that a new hairstyle would be appropriate.<ref name="owen20000121">{{cite web |first=Rob |last=Owen |url=https://old.post-gazette.com/tv/20000121owen3.asp |title=On the Tube: The ratings dropped with her golden locks – WB says grow it back |work=Pittsburgh Post-Gazette |date=January 21, 2000 |access-date=May 25, 2022}}</ref> After being shifted from Tuesday nights at 9:00{{nbsp}}pm Eastern to Sunday nights at 8:00{{nbsp}}pm Eastern (WB's weakest night) for the 1999–2000 season, the ratings for ''Felicity'' declined immediately. This decline occurred before the hairstyle change, but the later hair-style change became conflated by some of the public and by some of the popular press{{r|gates20000121}} and network executives with this earlier event and thus incorrectly blamed the earlier ratings drop partly on the later new hairstyle. After the negative reaction Russell rejected wearing [[hair extensions|extensions]] or a wig while her hair grew back. Although storytelling and time-slot changes had already created a ratings decline, a network executive said WB actors' future hair changes would "be given more thought at the network than it previously would have".{{r|owen20000121}} In 2010, [[TV Guide Network]] listed the hairstyle change at No. 19 on their list of "25 Biggest TV Blunders", with several commentators arguing that it was the reason that the ratings of the show dropped.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news.aspx?id=20100302tvguide01 |title=TV Guide Network's ''25 Biggest TV Blunders'' Special Delivers 3.3 Million Viewers |date=March 2, 2010 |work=The Futon Critic |access-date=March 10, 2010}}</ref> Russell did not agree with the network's attribution of the ratings decline, telling ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'' in 2000, "I think that's a pretty lame excuse. I think a lot more than a haircut was deciding the ratings [last year]", which{{snd}}according to a September 29, 2023, ''[[Time (magazine)|Time]]'' magazine article{{snd}}included the timeslot change, which cost the show one third of its viewers. Shannon Carlin, author of the ''Time'' article, also pointed to a decline in viewership for the network overall, which by May 2000, was in last place in ratings.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://time.com/6318711/felicity-haircut-25-years-premiere/ |title=25 Years After ''Felicity'', It's Time to Revisit TV's Most Infamous Haircut |first=Shannon |last=Carlin |magazine=[[Time (magazine)|Time]] |url-status=live |date=September 29, 2023 |access-date=October 2, 2023 |archive-date=October 2, 2023 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20231002145034/https://time.com/6318711/felicity-haircut-25-years-premiere/}}</ref> The haircut incident went on to become a [[popular culture]] reference within other television shows, both comedic and dramatic.{{citation needed|date=October 2023}} Despite the controversy, ''Felicity'' continued for two more seasons.
