Sex Education: Pesky Puberty DVD (2005) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This DVD is amazing simply for the irony value.
Remember those crazy sex education videos they showed you in high school. That's what these are.
The tracks get more and more ironic as they go on. What I did with the DVD was put it on in the background at a party and as we got more wasted we just could not stop watching it and cracking up.
I think the funniest is when they tell the girls not to kiss boys or they will get pregnant and have to quit school. We howled with laughter.
I could easily see these things played in the background at a hip club or something.

This DVD is a good reminder that while attitudes towards teenagers and sex have changed with the times, the cold hard facts of life and sex have stayed the same. No matter what age we live in, teenagers are going to go through some very confusing and embarrassing changes and adults are going to have to find a way to help them understand what is going on with their hormones and their bodies.All of the films on this DVD were shot around the 1950s and are remarkably straightforward. We often think of the 1950s as an era that was very conservative when it comes to sex, but these films make the case that when they had to be parents and teachers could be pretty direct on the subject.That isn’t to say that some of the clips are not amusing when looked at through the lens of time. The opening clip starts out talking about white wedding dresses and then descends, for example, into a conversation about menstruation. That said, other clips on this disk pull no punches. It’s definitely worth a look at all of the films as they are in very good condition.

Life As We Know It - The Complete Series (2004) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)One the outside "Life as we Know it" look like another Beverly Hills 90210/One Tree Hill rip off. But in reality that cannot be further form the truth. With producers from "Freaks and Geeks" and "My So Called Life," LAWKI was a realistic look on what it is like to be a teenage boy in high school right now. Guys watched it because the main male characters were always having a crisis that comes right out of any high school in america (thats probably why many guys at my school watched it, but never told anyone). And Girls enjoyed it because although the main characters are the three guys, there are three extremly charming and intelligent girls that help make up the cast.
Eventhough many critics enjoyed the show, the show still had many problems facing it. The show was based on the English novel "doing it" and which you can guess from the title was very frank and had more sexual stuff in it than your normal teen fair. The show (although toned down a little) still keeps that prospective of teenagers, and sicne was bashed by the FCC (in post-Janet Jackson days and several Parent groups).
Since I had previously read the book I was extremly excited when I first heard about this show. When the pilot aired surprisingly enough I was not dissapointed, the show took the essance of the book, added a few american twists and ran with it. Although the ratings never went higher than 5 million viewers, the show quickly became my favorite show on the air.
The show is about three teenage boys who happen to be best friends (one is a Jock, one is a Nerd, and the Other just exsist). All three of these boys are in different areas of growing up (mentally speaking) and they are always having problems with their respected female counterparts (The Jock, the Freak, and the Brain). But that just the outside. On the outside the show was the most realistic look at what High School life is like in the post 2000 years, that rivals "My So Called Life" in the amount of depth is put onto screen.
This is show is a must for anyone that enjoyed "My so called life" and "Freaks and Geeks." But I must warn you if your looking of "The OC" I suggest "Beverly Hills 90210" (which is a good show in its own right when there where in high school).
