Exclusive Goldbergs Sneak Peek: Adam Gets Bullied on the Bus
Get ready to meet Adam's worst nightmare.
On Tuesday's The Goldbergs (9/8c, ABC), Adam (Sean Giambrone) will get bullied on the school bus by eighth grader J.C. Spink (Cooper Roth), who relishes every chance he gets to torment "Adam Goldnerd."
Like most things on the show, the story line is based on real life. Creator Adam F. Goldberg was in fact bullied by J.C. Spink, who is now a manager and producer on We're the Millers . Not only that, but the real Spink makes a cameo as the school bus driver in the episode, as seen in the exclusive clip below.

"When I told him about it and said I was thinking about doing an episode, he had no memory of it and apologized profusely," Goldberg told TVGuide.com. "He was like, 'I'm so sorry! I don't remember that at all. I'm so sorry.' I asked him to do the show, and he was totally game."
Check out the fake and real Spink in the clip below. The Goldbergs airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on ABC.
