"Teacher's Pet" is a full-length movie based on the television show of the same name. I have never seen the show, though after watching the movie, I wouldn't mind seeing more.
The story begins with a parody of Pinocchio and the scene where the Blue Fairy brings him to life. Apparently, Spot the dog longs to become a real boy as well and this dream illustrates his odd desire. But, considering the dog can talk AND has been attending school disguised as a boy, this isn't a very surprising dream. What IS surprising is that eventually Spot learns about a mad scientist who claims he can turn dogs into people...and Spot soon learns that wanting something and having it aren't exactly the same!
The art style of the film is a radical departure for Disney...and I appreciate how Gary Baseman's art style is realized in the movie. As for the story, it's rather simple but also quite enjoyable. Well made and well worth seeing.
