One Fine Day (OFD) is an American Internet Protocol television series produced in conjunction with students from a variety of Big Ten Universities, such as the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, the University of Iowa, the University of Wisconsin, Purdue University, and Michigan State University. The series premiered on October 4, 2007 and ran for two seasons until April 24, 2008. It is the largest independent media production by students in the Big Ten., and was created by Derek Klein and Marc Morin Jr. OFD is loosely based on the lives of creators Klein & Morin and examines college life from the perspectives of six fictional dorm resident advisors and their friends.[1][2]
Known as "Dorm Life from the other side", the show deals with the typical themes associated with college life: partying, sexuality, and just trying to find one's self in a changing world.[3] The series is unique in the way that each episode is portrayed through a series of webcam interviews and flash backs told through the eyes of each of the RAs.
