Here's Michael Richards, Kramer from Seinfeld, in one of NBC's classic "The More You Know" PSAs.



Okay, I guess...

Donald Glover "Save Community" PSA

I miss Community...
Everyone misses Community..
I mean, even Donald Glover!

Check this out:



Fake PSAs like this one above, and lots of fanarts have been popping all over the web, in this fan movement to have the show back on air.

Well, it hasn't been actually really canceled. But since NBC took it off air to bring 30 Rock back (which is awesome as well, by the by), fans have been afraid of a future cancellation being made public and all that~

The show will be back "in Spring", with nothing more precise regarding the actual date or schedule... :/

PSA - "This Is Your Brain on Drugs"

Here's another classic anti-drugs PSA.
From 1998.

This one is quite well burned forever on my mind (and many others), because it features a lovely Rachael Leigh Cook (Josie & the Pussycats, Get Carter, Batman Beyond, She's All That,..) going crazy on a poor and innocent kitchen.

Blame it on crack.



I still find her pretty gorgeous in this one to this very day~ <3
This PSA made quite a sensation back in the day, everyone heard and talked about it.
Now that's how you make people listen to your public announcements, heh Pee-Wee?

This cult famous video was directed by Eden Tyler and written by Ken Cills and Doug Hill.

PSA - "This Is Your Brain..."

Any questions?



From the famous 80s/early 90s anti-drugs PSA campaign.
This is the original one from 1987.

PSA - "Anti Weed" Commercial

To stay on the subject of this past week random PSA I blog-posted here, here's one more PSA.
This one unlike those (from the 80s) is a modern one.

I can understand the idea, but the message is a bit buried beneath the way they choose to deliver it...



I mean really?
A talking dog?
You don't even need to check out this video's comment on youtube to know no kid will take this seriously whatsoever...
Is she already stoned? Won't she keep doing so to avoid/continue hearing her dog talk? A talking dog seriously?? (what is this, Garfield 3: "The drug influenced talking dog"?)

Bwahahahahahahaha!

PSA - Bruce Willis anti-crack

It's time for one more, here's Bruce Willis own anti-crack PSA


Yep, this one wasn't a funny one.
Simple, short, direct. Easily the best and most professionally done PSA I've seen so far, a thousand miles away from the modern current ones.

"Anyone who offers you crack is not friend, say no, you be the boss"
That's it! Period.
That's the way you should start and end a public service announcement.

PSA - Clint Eastwood talks about cocaine

You know what's more effective than Pee Wee talking about crack? Clint Eastwood talking about crack.
At least he got the presence, the tone and the voice you'll listen to, and believe.



Another one of these 80s classic PSAs, from the same campaign as the last one I posted.

PSA - Pee Wee talks about cocaine

Here's something random.

This one's a pretty well known PSA that has already gone around the interwebz...but I thought...what the heck, right?
Featuring none other than Pee-Wee Herman in this legendary anti-crack PSA on crack from the 80s:



I would have been okay with all this..if it was someone else (or better yet, the actor portraying Pee Wee...as himself!!!) saying such serious things.
How can you take it seriously with his silly voice and funny make-up?!?

Marquette University PSA - The wacky world of Danny Pudi

Here's a pretty awesome lil' advertisement Danny Pudi did for Marquette University, a school he went to some years back.

It's a pretty awesome video who showcase some of Danny's magic outside NBC's TV series Community~
Check it out!



Loved the bit with him speaking polish :P

Democracy? You decide!!

 Danny Wallace takes a very serious (... okay, not really!) look at governance's system.
A very funny silly look on politics :P





This was originally a PSA meant for 14-18 year olds.

Ad - ASFA

Here's a random PSA/commercial that aired in France a while back.
It was a sort of humorous announcement, to justify the augmented cost of the taxes people in France had to pay for their highways or something...
(yeah even I am not sure, despite speaking French)

Anyway, it was quite, let's say, visual.



Ha! :D

(and don't crybaby on me, it was obviously CGi for the most part!)
