Q: What school subjects are the four kids best at?
A: I was looking these questions over and that's an interesting one. There's an obvious answer for Lor because she was super good at PE. She was good at any kind of sports, physical stuff, and Tish was obviously going to be good at the brainy subjects. All the STEM stuff. And it was less obvious with the others. But one of the things about the show was I had been reading one of Howard Gardner's books. He's the guy who came up with the theory of multiple intelligences. His whole thing was that people can be – there's not one intelligence. You're not intelligent in just one way. There's physical intelligence, there's emotional intelligence, there's different kinds... and they're all valuable and they should all be encouraged. So, the thinking was that Lor has physical intelligence and Tino has a little more emotional intelligence. And we were playing with that. Howard Gardner's stuff was very popular with educational TV at the time because it kind of opened up the possibilities for what educational TV could be, because you could play to emotional issues and relationship issues and things and do what they called pro-social education and not have to teach facts, which television is the worst medium for getting across facts. Memorizing things does not happen well on TV. So there was always that thinking that they were all super smart in different ways. But I would imagine Tino probably would have excelled at English and probably Carver too. And Carver would have been a really good art student. [ Doug Langdale, The Weekenders creator | Source ]
