==Plot== Set in the fictional city of Flatpoint, ''Strangers with Candy'' follows Geraldine Antonia "Jerri" Blank, a former prostitute and drug addict—referred to in the show as a "junkie whore"—who returns to [[high school]] as a 46-year-old [[freshman]] at Flatpoint High. Jerri ran away from home and became "a [[Alcoholism|boozer]], a [[Recreational drug use|user]], and a loser" after dropping out of high school as a teenager, supporting her drug habits through [[prostitution]], [[Stripper|stripping]], and [[larceny]]. She has been to prison several times, the last time because she "stole the TV". Jerri tries to do things the right way but always ends up learning the wrong lesson. Her hijinks often involve, either directly or indirectly, history teacher Chuck Noblet and his secret lover art teacher Geoffrey Jellineck. Every episode features a warped theme or moral lesson and ends with the cast and other featured actors from the episode dancing. The last episode features Flatpoint High being turned into a strip mall, a development that reflected Comedy Central cancelling the show to make room for a TV show called ''[[Strip Mall]]''.
