Pee Wee Herman PSA About Crack

Paul Reubens, known for his character Pee-wee Herman, made a public service announcement (PSA) about crack cocaine in 1991 as part of his community service after being arrested for indecent exposure in a movie theater.
The PSA, which aimed to warn against the dangers of crack, featured Pee-wee Herman in a serious tone without his usual antics.
The ad was part of the Reagan administration's "War on Drugs" campaign.

The PSA is notable for its unusual approach, using a beloved children's character to discuss a serious topic like drug abuse.
It was seen as an awkward attempt to reach young audiences with a serious message.
Some viewers felt that Pee-wee's laugh at the end was inappropriate for an anti-crack message, though it's unclear if this laugh was part of the original PSA.

Despite its unconventional nature, the PSA has been rediscovered and discussed in recent years, with some viewers crediting it for deterring them from trying crack.
