DRIVE ME CRAZY (1999). First Nicole (Melissa Joan Hart, from Sabrina), a scheming but good-natured high-school socialite, loses her date for the big dance when blond basketball hunk Brad falls on (and in love with) a rival cheerleader. Then her next-door neighbor Chase (Adrian Grenier) gets dumped by his sexy, cranberry-haired girlfriend. So naturally, Nicole and Chase pair up -- Nicole to avoid going to the big dance stag, Chase to catch the eye of his ex. But John Schultz's story isn't quite the cliché of the dork transformed into the prom king: Chase is cool from the beginning, and his beatnik ex looks as if she could eat Hart for breakfast. And though the pairing of cool and outcast is abrupt, the rest of the cast is appealing -- Chase's buddies from the high-school margins, Nicole's school-spirited in-crowd.
