Description: Ryan DiGiorgi tracks down Dr. Love, a respected romantic advisor to college students, and follows him with a camera on a date of his own.  Needless to say, things don't go that well.
Background: In 2002, Comedy Central announced a new show about college life that was to be produced by Harold Ramis.  Students were invited to send in wacky college videos for a chance at a cable TV appearance and a wad of cash.  Logan and Ryan churned out yet another Dr. Logan adventure and sent it off.  The Comedy Central show appears to have been cancelled, but a few good bits o' comedy resulted, so it wasn't a total loss.

Runtime: 12 minutes

Camera: Ryan DiGiorgi

Trivia
• This is the first Lazy Bear Productions film to be named by someone other than Logan Lee or Ryan DiGiorgi. The title was the winner of Lazy Bear's first contest, which was conceived for two reasons: First, the original title, Woody Allen's Spring 2002 Project was always thought of as a working title. Second, the founders just really wanted to have a contest. The winner, Stephanie Walker, got her choice of Lazy Bear merchandise for her contribution.
• This movie was entirely improvised based on an outline
• Because Logan and Ryan were at college, they didn’t have access to their usual quality editing bays and cameras. As a result, this is the first Lazy Bear film to be edited entirely in-camera. Logan and Ryan were less than pleased with the results.
• Logan and Ryan couldn’t think of a fitting title for this project, so they named it Woody Allen’s Spring 2002 Project as a parody of the way Woody Allen’s films are nicknamed before he releases the official title. The film was later renamed by Stephanie Walker as part of an online contest (see above).
• Dr. Love’s office actually belonged to Logan Lee and Ryan DiGiorgi’s academic advisor at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, Dr. Elizabeth Gailey
• Alex’s line “Doc, I’m a flop with chicks. I’ve been this way since 1996” is a mutation of a line from the song “Love Potion Number 9”
• This is Lazy Bear writers Logan Lee and Ryan DiGiorgi’s least favorite of their films. It was written in response to an open request from Comedy Central for films made by college students. As such, the boys attempted to pander to a wider audience, but as most would expect, many elements of the traditional Lazy Bear humor snuck in. This resulted in an odd and unsettling mix of styles that left both the general public and hardcore Lazy Bear fans unsatisfied. Despite this, Logan and Ryan are happy that they were, at least for a while, under contract with Comedy Central.
• The unanswered telephone call in Dr. Love’s office was, needless to say, unplanned, but because of the messy water gag that preceded it, Logan improvised an explanation and continued the scene.
• The Dr. Logan Love in this film is an alternate version of the classic Lazy Bear character Dr. Logan. He is the third of three slightly different Dr. Logan characters with the first being the original Dr. Logan as seen in Blender Agenda and Dr. Logan’s Day Out, and the second being the glasses and jacketless Dr. Logan in Holiday Problems!.
• Since the original Dr. Logan glasses were broken during the filming of Dr. Logan’s Day Out, this variation of the character wears a new gold-rimmed pair. He also sports a Hawaiian shirt to match his freewheeling single guy persona rather than his traditional tan shirt.
• The Dorm 115 shown in the film was Logan’s actual dorm during the spring of 2002. David Chilton was also his actual roommate and a good friend of both Logan and Ryan.
• When Dr. Love enters the dorm he refers to every lady dreaming of “stepping in here”. Though we assume he’s talking about the dorm, he actually points to his crotch.
• Dr. Logan Love’s real name is revealed to be Mickey Twittleberg, though whether this is also the name of the other incarnations of the Dr. Logan character remains to be seen.
• The Comedy Central show that David references involving girls, kegs, and trampolines is “The Man Show”.
• Tapes of the other Lazy Bear films and Logan’s guitar can be seen in the background of the dorm.
• The window stunt was possible thanks to a small ledge. The dorm was on the second floor, not on the ground floor as some viewers assumed.
• Both the car that Dr. Love enters and the bike he rides away belonged to co-star David Chilton.
• Originally Areta Davis was cast as the roommate of Dr. Love’s date, a much smaller part. But after several other actresses cancelled on the Lazy Bear crew, Logan and Ryan called upon her to take on the female lead. Despite the very short notice, Areta agreed.
• The stylish scene in which the camera moves with Dr. Love as he rides his bike, was not a dolly shot. Ryan simply filmed while walking backwards.
• The condom scene was shot in the UTC campus health center with the actual nurse playing herself. Condoms were indeed pilfered at the scene from, yes, the actual bucket o’ condoms provided by the school. David’s bike was left unguarded outside. Luckily it remained unharmed.
• While Dr. Love’s date is being interviewed, he pulls a mug from the cupboard and drops it, causing it shatter. If the Lazy Bear crew had had access to their usual editing equipment, a sound effect could have been added later, but since all editing was done in-camera, the real mug had to be broken. It belonged to Logan and was the only spare one available; so only one take could be shot. Because of this, this was one of the few scenes in Lazy Bear history that actually had a decent amount of rehearsal.
• The shot of Dr. Love and his date riding together on the bike required the most takes of the film. Many attempts were ruined due to the bike either going too slowly or falling over.
• Dr. Logan’s backpack contains a distinguished looking pipe, Crest Extra Whitening toothpaste, condoms of assorted colors, a toothbrush, and empty toothbrush case, a packet of dry macaroni, a packet of powdered instant cheese dust, and a pound of sugar.
• Dr. Love’s pipe was borrowed from a UTC theater teacher. By the end of filming it was covered with toothpaste and cheesy crud. Logan cleaned it by hand in his dorm sink before returning it, during which tobacco remnants from the last time the pipe had been used (likely years ago) came loose.
• The sugar used in the picnic scene was actually bought for use with a cotton candy machine that actors Ryan, Logan, and Areta jointly purchased. You figure it out.
• Logan never again used the toothbrush featured in this movie.
• The Li’l Dr. Love puppet was sewn from scratch by Ryan’s mom. The ventriloquist routine was the only scripted joke that made it into the film.
• The car that the couple drives away in at the end didn’t belong to anyone in the cast. Henry, who played the cool guy, borrowed it from a friend.
• A new version of this movie with music and better editing is coming soon.
