In the late-80s, early-90s slice of life dramedy The Wonder Years, Columbo's grandson navigates life through a funhouse mirror version of America in the 1960s, resulting in a lot of synth-backed montages where he Learns A Lesson about friendship or homework or kids getting shipped to Vietnam or whatever. At its core, The Wonder Years was basically just a five season long slog of Daniel Stern narrating Fred Savage through puberty while you got increasingly impatient waiting for him to hook up with Winnie Cooper.
There is one episode that I like. Basically, Fred Savage is commiserating with his milquetoast best friend Paul about how Paul, an incredible nerd, always gets picked last for basketball at school.
