SATURDAY July 8
8-11PM FREAKS AND GEEKS MARATHON (NBC, TV-PG) The most underrated show of last season goes out with a gorgeous three-episode coda that compels every major character to question his or her ''freak'' or ''geek'' role, with the series' typical mixture of hilarity and heartache. In ''The Little Things,'' look for Ben Stiller as a doofy Secret Service agent protecting a visiting Vice President Bush, while ''Mystery Science Theater 3000'' founder Joel Hodgson spins disco records as a well-coiffed bowling alley DJ in ''Discos and Dragons,'' the finale. Funny and vivid, this canceled series lives up to the Grateful Dead LP played near the end: ''American Beauty.'' A -- Ken Tucker
