  Definition of Home Movies
Home Movies is a dialogue-driven animated series about 8-year-old Brendon Small (voiced by the creator, head writer, and lead musician of Home Movies Brendon Small), who makes films with his friends, Melissa and Jason, in his spare time.
Home Movies premiered on UPN on April 26, 1999 but got pulled after five episodes before returning to TV two years later in Cartoon Network's Adult Swim late night lineup.
Home Movies' chief gimmick (aside from the early Squigglevision animation) was its use of "retroscripting." Retroscripting is a process in which an episode's scripts are purposely left vague, and instead of giving exact dialogue for the actors merely outline a scene which the actors improv.

 dOc DVD Review: Brady Home Movies (1995) - Printable
Though the "home movies" are the featured attraction, there isn't enough 8mm footage to fill this forty-two minute special - some of the clips are reused several times, and they're not exactly chock-full of revelatory content.
The "home movies" themselves are in middling condition, shot on Super 8mm film with a lot of grain and dirt, but this is to be expected; they're presented at the proper 18 frames-per-second rate and look fairly natural.
Brady Home Movies is a fun view for Brady Bunch fans, reuniting the surviving cast members for an upbeat, fairly personal look back at the popular TV series.

 HOME MOVIES (1979)
Most of this sounds much like the plot of HOME MOVIES, in which teenager Denis Byrd (Keith Gordon) struggles to find his identity in a family of self-absorbed lunatics.
It's probably inevitable that HOME MOVIES is a somewhat uneven film, given the outrageousness of the premise and the fact that several writers (six, in fact) each had a hand in the screenplay.
Nevertheless, there's much to enjoy here, with bright, engaging performances by then newcomer Gordon (whose own memories of working on the film are offered in this "site exclusive" interview) and Allen, who proved after her role as the deceitful Chris Hargenson in CARRIE that she was just as adept at handling light comedy.
