"They All Eat Chocolate Ice Cream Cones!!!", June 25, 2002
This review is from: Educational Archives, Vol. 2 - Social Engineering 101 (DVD)
It totally rules!! "Why Vandalism?" is particularly amazing. "Shy Guy" is good because it has a very young Dick York. Actually, I recognized a few of these from Nick at Nite about 10 years ago...they used to show "The Patty Duke Show" and "Dobie Gillis" and all that, and in between they'd show snippets of old classroom films!!! Man, those were the days. The kid in "Soapy The Germ Fighter" kind of looks like a dirty, young male adolescent Bjork ..."Why Doesn't Cathy Eat Breakfast?" is WAY too short. I'd pay [price] for 2 hours of just her in her gloriously funky room. When I finally got 'round to the final film, "The Outsider", I got all giddy; after all, the last filmstrip in "Vol I: Sex & Drugs" was the brilliant "The ABC's of Sex Ed For Trainables." . Once again, Skip does not disappoint! This film is the most brilliantly melodramatic portrayal of basic young girl blues I have ever seen. Thank goodness Susan Jane's mother intervenes, before she has a total mental breakdown! I can't wait until I get "On The Job"!!!!!!!!!

My favorite of the "Educational Archives" series, November 2, 2002
This review is from: Educational Archives, Vol. 2 - Social Engineering 101 (DVD)
I own all four of the "Educational Archives" DVDs, and so far, Volume 2 is my favorite. I love "Lunchroom Manners" and "Soapy the Germ Fighter" best of all. Oh, and the one about Chalky -- that's a keeper. "Why Doesn't Cathy Eat Breakfast?" really takes me back to my own elementary school days, because our teacher actually SHOWED us that bizarre little film as part of a "good nutrition" unit. I love the ending -- "STOP PROJECTOR; DISCUSS MOVIE." Wouldn't it be great if more movies ended like that? [...]

Why doesn't Cathy eat breakfast?, November 20, 2001
This review is from: Educational Archives, Vol. 2 - Social Engineering 101 (DVD)
Great DVD! Most of the films are funny and interesting. A couple of lame ones tossed in there, too, unfortunately. (4 stars vs. 5 star ratings). This DVD features "Soapy the Germ Fighter," "Why Vandalism?" and my favorite, "Why doesn't Cathy eat breakfast?" I can't wait for more to come out! Bring us more 60s and 70s features! Wooooooooo!
