The Bedford Diaries

The Bedford Diaries was a WB network drama TV series that was created by Tom Fontana and Julie Martin. It premiered on March 29, 2006.

The cast consisted of Matthew Modine, Tiffany Dupont, Penn Badgley, Corri English, Milo Ventilmiglia, Ernest Waddell and Victoria Cartagena.

A week prior to its premiere, The WB posted scenes from the pilot which might have prompted FCC fines on its website. A second version without explicit images was broadcast on television.

On May 10, 2006, "The Bedford Diaries" was cancelled after only 8 episodes aired.

Plot
The show was about the excitement and intensity of New York City college life through the eyes of six students with different backgrounds, experiences and ages, who are brought together in a provocative sexuality seminar.

The seminar (which examines the human condition through sexuality) is taught by maverick Professor Jake Macklin, who will challenge and inspire his students as they question their assumptions about their own sexuality, life and identity.

The themes of the series included sexual responsibility, manipulation and the differences between love & sex, passion & abstinence.

The students’ innermost thoughts and desires are told through video diaries they make to fulfill their weekly class assignments.
