I remember having to watch this in high school as an assignment.  Nuclear terrorizers versus the U.S Nuclear Emergency Search Team [NEST]

Wow. I may have seen that as well.  NBC had several of those types if I recall. We had some odd stuff to watch in the gym as school assembly events. Sit on the floor for two hours surrounded by everyone else in a game of who is the most physically uncomfortable individual here? Meanwhile the teachers all sit around the perimeter of the darkened place on folding chairs brought from their back deck.

The fire safety film with the outwardly weeping dog in the wake of the family home burnt down the night before as he remembers the sounds of the kids playing was scarring. Can't un-see, unhear, or un-feel that one.


Those fuckers

I remember seeing it live. I miss the 80s girls' hair.  The ghost of Susan Myrick lives on the the anchor's fake "southern" accent.  Susan was a newspaper reporter friend of Margaret Mitchell who went to Hollywood as dialect coach for Gone With The Wind.  She taught them an upper middle class Middle Georgia accent with a good sized touch of snobbery.  When I met Susan in about 1960, that's exactly how she talked.

I miss the 80's hair too.  I imagine the hair spray companies do too. 

Interesting on Susan Myrick - never heard of her before so today I've learned something.

Oh no doubt.  I remember in Elementary School they had us watch some f'ed film about drug use.  It was horrid. Chicks with their arms all ate up from heroin, dudes schnoz all covered with Krylon from paint huffing, black, cancerous lungs lying on a table from smoking pot and then the worse was some dude tripping on LSD and slashing his eyeball with a razor blade.  Why show such a thing to like a 9 year old? 

Still can't forget it..........

Not exactly free, but, Paramount+ has all of the previous MIs available to stream.  I watched Dead Reckoning to get caught up.

Reminds me of the Boston "Back Bay" types I used to met up there. Snobbery/condescending accent at its finest.

We saw similar anti-smoking films back in the day, guys with half their faces missing I remember very well. Worst were the automotive accident films we were shown in Driver's Ed.  I saw things in those films that were far worse than things I saw investigating aircraft mishaps.

Dallas County tried to scare us straight in Jr. High by comparing pot use to be same as heroin use.
They showed us anti-smoking pictures as well.

Fuzzy, chopped up into 10 minutes hunks but amusing.  @Peter Wyngarde makes an appearance too.

Yes, that's a great one all right. Check out Armored Car Robbery, if you haven't seen it. Charles McGraw played a cop in that one, too, and the villain was a surprising William Talman, otherwise known as Hamilton Burger on the Perry Mason Show.

McGraw was a great actor. He was in a lot of pictures. His last appearance in a movie was in The Birds. He played a fisherman, eating lunch in a diner when the birds attacked. (He was also my avatar during the old BellGab days.)

Perhaps the greatest avatar of all time!
