Has anyone seen this PSA encouraging kids to be active? I think it might be from the early 90's judging by the NES controller the kid is using and the CRT computer monitor.
"Hey Grandma, how about another grape soda?".
I love the look of pure disgust Grandma gives her Grandson- it is so deserved...

The main point is valid, but that shot of the kid sitting on a chair with a leafblower was... oof.

I saw this on SNY in the gym during like off season shows on the weekend. Its hilariously dated in 2019 Some of the things in it are a little dated, but the overall issue of kids not being active (sadly) is still relevant- more than ever, actually. Honestly, I put the blame on the public schools making gym class as 'by the numbers' as possible for kids who just simply aren't motivated to properly stay active. It's regressed so poorly that it's basically no more than "older kids recess with the occasional government-mandated fitness test" at this point. The only way you can fail anymore is simply not having proper gym clothes to wear and you're not sitting on your ass. Makes me wish they'd take a page out of the gym classes from the 50s/60s and reintroduce actual physical fitness programs to the kids. Unless you're in "Athletics Gym" where they actually put you in the weight room and test you, it's just a waste of time for measly credits. |

This commercial's been airing since I was a kid, and I'm 34. It's extremely dated.

no shit my mom and brother used to call each other while in the same house (actually a townhouse, so it wasn't even that big) whenever they wanted something or needed to ask a question because "we don't want to shout"
and this wasn't the 90s, it was ten years ago
