MacGyver butts heads with a difficult but promising student while heading a Phoenix-sponsored educational experiment

MISSION: Phoenix Foundation sends MacGyver to a local school to work with faculty and students alike to reform a dysfunctional education program. MacGyver focuses his efforts on a notoriously difficult student until the student’s father causes new problems.

This week’s highlights include:

Here’s a link to my buddy John Kafka’s movie Dino Mom, which was later retitled Dino Time.

And here’s a link to the MacGyver Project’s interview with Jerry Wasserman.

Victor Frankenstein (Fictional character)

Victor Frankenstein is the title character of Mary Shelley’s 1818 novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus. He is a scientist who, after studying chemical processes and the decay of living beings, gains an insight into the creation of life and gives life to his own creature (often referred to as Frankenstein’s monster, or often colloquially referred to as simply “Frankenstein”. This is acceptable as the monster is a ‘son’ or other erstwhile progeny to the doctor and, as such, would typically have the same surname. ).
