This is a rather amusing little Saturday morning TV show that reminded me of "Saved by the Bell" so much it was frightening. They're all there, with Sandy as Kelli Kapowski and Junior as Zack. There's a Mr. Belding and a Screech, and the plots are all the same. It's entertaining, though (well, Sandy could read the phonebook and it would still be entertaining). Plus the added element of spotting the old "Saved by the Bell" moments just makes the show even better.

This movie does a wonderful job of of displaying the emerging music scene in Athens after the success of the B-52's and REM. It follows several hopeful groups across a variety of genres in Athens in 1987. Some of the more amusing scenes are the ones set in Philomath and the ones with the members of Pylon describing how they turned down an opportunity to tour with U2. Plus it shows REM's live performances of "Swan, Swan H" and "Dream (All I Have to Do)" at the Lucy Cobb Institute chapel. All in all a great documentary, and also a great trip down memory lane for someone who grew up in Athens during this time.
