i am the father of a six year old boy and he loves this film. i even like watching it when my son is not with me. i recommend that every parent buy this movie. it will likely be more attractive to boys but i challenge you as a parent to rent it and watch it. it could easily be qualified to be a disney film (obviously disney had nothing to do with it, just that it is a great wholesome movie) .
if your a fan of jim varney for portraying his role as ernest p. worrell, then you' ll probably will remember this film back when i first seen on the disney channel back in the late 90s to early 2000s. for me this is probably one of the funniest family films ever since it' s obscured and probably forgotten, the story is kinda okay in my opinion, the characters are probably fair along with the story and the fart jokes are not that great compared to the ones in blazing saddles; caddyshack and the nutty professor remake with eddie murphy since they' re quite hilarious in our opinion. overall this is a family film that many of us remember catching back on the disney channel and despite it being a direct to video movie since for those who are fans of jim varney themselves !

plugged in exists to shine a light on the world of popular entertainment while giving you and your family the essential tools you need to understand, navigate and impact the culture in which we live. through reviews, articles and discussions, we want to spark intellectual thought, spiritual growth and a desire to follow the command of colossians 2: 8 :
see to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on christ .
i am at a loss for words to adequately express how much it means to my husband and me to know that there is an organization like focus that is rooting for us. just today i was reading psalm 37 and thinking about how your ministry provides ways to' dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.' we have two teenagers and an 8 - year - old in our household... plugged in has become a significant compass for our family. all three of our kids are dedicated to their walk with christ but they still encounter challenges. thanks for all of your research and persistence in helping us navigate through stormy waters .
thanks for the great job you do in posting movie and television reviews online. i’m a college freshman and i recently had a confrontational disagreement with my english professor regarding an r - rated film. it is her favorite movie and she wanted to show it in class. i went to your web site to research the film’s content. although i had not seen the movie myself, i was able to make an educated argument against it based on the concerns you outlined. the prof said that she was impressed by my stand and decided to poll the whole class and give us a choice. we overwhelmingly voted to watch a g - rated movie instead! i’ve learned that i can trust your site and i will be using it a lot in the future. ”
“even though i don’t consider myself a christian, i find your plugged in web site useful and thought - provoking. no one reviews movies like you do. instead of being judgmental, you put entertainment ‘on trial. ’ after presenting the evidence, you allow the jury of your readers to decide for themselves what they should do. in my opinion, you bring sanity and order to the wild world of modern day entertainment. keep up the good work! ”
our family doesn' t go to the movies until we go online and check out your assessment of a given film. i think this is the best christian media review website that i' ve found, and i recommend it to my family and friends. keep up the good work !
our hope is that whether you' re a parent, youth leader or teen, the information and tools at plugged in will help you and your family make appropriate media decisions. we are privileged to do the work we do, and are continually thankful for the generosity and support from you, our loyal readers, listeners and friends .

bart stops to smell the roosevelts
is the second episode of season 23. it originally aired on october 2, 2011. theodore roosevelt guest stars as himself, via archived audio recordings .
springfield elementary school holds a fund - raising auction, announced as
drowning in debt
on the school' s marquee sign. bart, seeing an opportunity for mischief, pulls a prank via phone, telling auctioneer principal skinner that he' s an english widow called edith knickertwist. he places bids of thousands of dollars on each item in the auction, meaning that the school would have raised $ 116, 000 had the bids been real. however, bart reveals the prank in front of everyone attending the auction, disgusting the parents and teachers and publicly embarrassing skinner. the next morning, superintendent chalmers confronts skinner over his handling of the auction, calling him
a nitwit in an ill - fitting suit
. at this, skinner is finally pushed over the edge, loses his temper, and challenges chalmers to take over bart' s education if he thinks it' s so easy. chalmers accepts the challenge, promising that
for once, that boy is going to learn something .
bart' s new education, chalmers - style, begins at the springfield library and the topic is american history. chalmers is appalled when bart only recognizes a few of the presidents, but he sees a picture of theodore roosevelt and an idea comes to him. he asks bart ,
what if i told you there was a president who was an actual cowboy ?
bart says that he would only pretend to be interested, but chalmers figures that' s a good enough place to start. after reading books and watching an online multimedia presentation about roosevelt, bart is genuinely interested in him and is impressed that he was once shot by a saloon keeper while giving a speech, yet still finished it. for the first time in his life, bart wants to learn more, and chalmers is pleased with his success .
bart' s enthusiasm about teddy roosevelt spills over onto jimbo, nelson, dolph and milhouse. bart asks chalmers if they can join in their studies. chalmers readily agrees, and says that the group will take an overnight trip into springfield forest to search for roosevelt' s legendary lost pair of spectacles. nelson finds them in a ditch, but falls in and is slightly injured. mrs. muntz sues the school, and state comptroller atkins fires chalmers for taking the boys on an unauthorized field trip .
timmy taylor: ott the snot! i mean, principal snot, i mean... principal ott: timmy taylor... carl banks: you two know each other? boys: he' s our principal! carl banks: they let you work with kids? principal ott: who would ever suspect an elementary school principal ?
