I know Scruff McGruff gets parodied a lot nowadays, however this commercial from the early 80s gets straight to the point especially when all of the kids disappear. Even Scruff wasn't joking around, "You may be looking at Jenni for the last time."
Those commercials back then hit different.
Yeah those 80s and early 90s PSAs put the fear of God into you. Anyone remember the "It's ______ pm, do YOU know where your children are?"
shyt used to send shivers up my spine.
