Dustin Nickerson’s comedy special, "Runs in the Family", is a hilarious and deeply relatable exploration of modern family life through the eyes of a parent navigating a rapidly changing world. With sharp humor and sincere vulnerability, Nickerson dives into the absurdities of pandemic homeschooling, generational shifts in parenting, social media-induced stress, and his own self-admitted immaturity. Balancing witty observations with genuine emotional honesty, he captures the chaos of raising kids with anxiety, ADHD, and ODD—all while humorously grappling with his own shortcomings. Runs in the Family masterfully finds laughter in life's toughest moments, reminding us that sometimes the best remedy for family dysfunction is simply to laugh through it together.

Although TheMovieDB might provide a key to a YouTube video, there is no guarantee that the video might be present at YouTube.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
