Talk:This Is Your Brain on Drugs/Archives/2012

Date of 2nd video
I created the This Is Your Brain On Drugs article. I have been unable to confirm which year the version of that ad with RLC was broadcast. Can someone please take the trouble to find this out. The only source I can find on the matter said 1998, but I have a strong feeling this is incorrect. Also, can anyone find a picture of the poster from the campaign? Thanks, Aaron Jethro


 * Every source I've seen has 1998, and a few times 1999. I'm pretty positive it was '98. Then again, you insist that it isn't from that year so maybe I might be wrong. Buzda 17:22, 14 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Following comments on my talk page, Buzda said he was sure he'd seen the ad' before '98. I swear that it was the case too, but I can't find a way to back this up. - Aaron Jethro 20:50, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

the man in the first commercial
Anyone know who the man was that was in the original "brain on drugs" commercial? --Agerard 20:50, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Sequence of Sentences in 1st PSA
This article, as written before, implied that the order of the sentences was: "This is drugs. This is your brain. This is your brain on drugs." I grew up hearing it as: "This is your brain. This is drugs. This is your brain on drugs." The guy held up the frying pan AFTER showing the egg, not before. So I edited the paragraph relevant to the 1st PSA. Roxtar 18:50, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Before 1987?
I remember see the commercial in the early 1970's, which I was in grade school. But I clearly remember it showed the hot butter sizzling in the fry pan first: "This is drugs." Then the egg breaking into it: "This is your brain on drugs. Any questions?" But everyone thinks of it as the "This is your brain" commercial! Digitalinky (talk) 22:36, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Rachel Leigh Cook
I seem to remember that around the time she did the Robot Chicken sketch, she came out against the campaign in an interview somewhere, stating that this was her reason for doing the Robot Chicken sketch in the first place. Anyone got something about that we can add to the article? Sweetfreek (talk) 04:47, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
