Behaving Points

Behaving Points is a combination between silent screen comedy, scoring points like in boxing, and a live sports commentator. Two chaps compete in the art of manners. With good manners one gets more points and vice versa. All in all 20 two minute episodes of Behaving Points were produced as inserts in Pussel ('Puzzle'), a magazine program by the Children´s Department of the Swedish Speaking Television aimed to the audience between 7 and 10 years of age. Mr. Nilsson and Mr. Larsson turned out to be very well liked and were also very usable vehicles for discussions about good manners both in school and at home. Six of the 20 episodes are presented here.
