I’m a huge fan of The Breakfast Club, one of my go to movies of the Eighties. I also liked The Mean Season, a tight, entertaining thriller. Thank you so much for the upload, I was living in the sticks in California with zero tv reception, so I missed so many of these telecasts.
I can remember watching The Breakfast Club for the first time the night it debuted on HBO in early '86. I was in the sixth grade and although the characters were a few years older than i was at the time, I identified completely with them.
John Hughes-the poet-laureate of Chicago,Illinois,and its suburbs and adolescent angst-Heaven Bless His Soul:) I love VisionQuest!Amazing Soundtrack & Harold Becker is very underrated-Taps,Sea Of Love....
That speech from Visionquest is Oscar material Andy Garcia is in the Mean Season. Can’t believe I didn’t notice that before They are wrong in Breakfast Club.
@@jamesmitchell8922 James, sorry I was confused and was thinking of another episode. No, nothing here had to be cut for a copyright. Larry's tape had the cut in it when he sent the file to me (I checked the original MKV he made) so I'm not sure what was missing. Judging by the length of the episode it was probably just a few words that got cut, like the pause button got hit by accident!
@@jamesmitchell8922 yes it was inherent in his original tape recording. if you pressed pause while recording on VHS by accident then quickly hit it again, it would do something like that. Probably missed a second or two, the length of the episode is not absent much running time over what it should be.
I have to say I thought THE MEAN SEASON wasn't bad. Good score by Lalo Schifrin also. Back in VHS era I seemed to remember a small cult following (well, a couple of people who liked it lol) for TURK 182 back when I was in grade school, but that seemed to have dissipated by the time it ended up on DVD years later.,

Note the Tuff Turf poster behind Medved
There was a jump cut between Too Scared to Scream and The Naked Face
I couldn't clear the copyright on that clip, sorry. Most of the time the appeal process works but not in that instance.
@@Chiefbrody22 That film not seen was...?

@@Chiefbrody22 So I see, must be a fault then

Why in the world would you reveal that a crime thriller has a red herring twist ending?! That would qualify as a serious spoiler.
They were way off base with The Breakfast Club.
Well, they're not the only ones to slaughter Turk 182!
Oh yes, kept thinking of the S and E review as well. Bob Clark also directed Christmas Story-these two overlooked that one
i care to differ the breakfast club was a great movie
Siskel and Ebert really shame these guys, because they understood The Breakfast Club more than these goofs.
Breakfast Club really is awful. So is most of the John Hughes catalog. Only good one is Some Kind of Wonderful
