Philly police are making bad PSAs using old 'Saved by the Bell' clips
LatestWhen they aren’t uploading security footage to YouTube, the Philadelphia Police Department is adding PSAs. One recent example of the form mysteriously and confusedly “borrows” an anti-drug PSA from a 1991 episode of Saved by the Bell.
We cannot stress how much we love this video: The lazy execution of simply pasting commissioner Charles Ramsey’s face over then-NBC-president Brandon Tartikoff’s; the terrible audio quality of Ramsey’s ADR work; and the blatant copyright infringement are too great to ignore. PPD knows exactly what they’re doing here: appeal to ’90s kids who probably determined a decade ago what they thought about illegal drugs.Co-sign, PPD. Next steps: getting to work on that pesky, rising crime rate.
