This very short clip (6 minutes) is part of a series of educational films Charles Schulz and his team produced in the late 1970s, and the 2nd having to do with dental hygiene. The first of those was called "Tooth Brushing" and dealt specifically with that topic. This one focuses on flossing.
Although Peanuts is usually known for its humor, the purpose of "Flossophy" is not to amuse but to inform. As such, there aren't a ton of laughs here, but there are a few. Lucy instructs Charlie and Snoopy how to floss properly, and you can expect the usual facial expressions and sounds from Snoopy while she talks. There is also a side story involving Woodstock, a nest, and dental floss which serves as the comic relief.
This was made to be shown in schools so the target audience is children, but anyone can watch. And you might even learn something. Heck, I found out that I wasn't flossing at the proper angle!
See it on Youtube.
7/10. Short but informative, and mildly amusing.
