Just so you're all forewarned. Public service announcements have gotten gory and violent. Ill be watching TV mid-day with my kid and see animated corpses half-charred or with rods sticking out of their heads.

They have radio counterparts too. Yeah, they're pretty gory but I've only seen them on later at night- are they on during programs when kids would be watching? I didn't think they were...

You can see them here under the Watch-It tab:

Actually, you know what? You might be right about the time they're on. My bad. I have a PVR and I tend to watch late-night shows at all hours of the day. The shows I watch w my kid are generally alright but I never considered the commercials might be geared towards adults. Never considered what time they were recorded when I started this thread. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.
