ABC After School Special Tricked Us: Tammy Pescatelli

[@OfficialLaughSociety]

What's something you learned ONLY from TV?

[@lindabarling7719]

Beverly Hillbillies, your animals are part of your family and they totally understand what you say to them 😂❤😂

[@booksteer7057]

Does anyone else remember "The Last of the Curlews"? It left all of my 2nd grade classmates in tears.

[@lindabarling7719]

That's for sure. 😂😂😂

[@johnconway9882]

I'm glad there's subtitles. I thought for a second that she was declaring herself a millennial, but she's saying millennials don't know this. (0:32). Tammy was born in 1967

[@paulleeamory]

1969, I think.

[@victoriaharris8543]

After school specials was the ish and yes they talked about a lot of real life issues

[@rodneykingston6420]

There was an early one that starred Beau Bridges and it was a look at divorce from the kid's perspective, and at the time, my parents were still together, but I could see it on the horizon (happened 2 years later) and I watched it thinking "yup, this is how it's going to be." And it was.

The drug films they showed us in class in the 70's would get teachers arrested today. I never wanted to do drugs after seeing those films, so I guess they worked.

[@donmiller2908]

I remember being in basic training in the Navy in the 70's. Right before graduation they showed us a film called "Red Asphalt" about the hazards of driving drunk or high. It was pretty intense too.

[@adonis8289]

@@donmiller2908 yeah saw those to. Takes a lot of force the mangle a 1950's station wagon. Thanks for bringing that one up.

[@nathanielmcneal5835]

Yikes yall are really easily impressionable.

[@adonis8289]

@@nathanielmcneal5835 well the films were real. You ever see a heroin addict go through withdrawal on film, it ain't pretty.

[@nathanielmcneal5835]

@@adonis8289 yeah but i have also seen people in real life get bad on that shit. So i already knew to stay away.

[@fuz4623]

Hilarious

The standup comic is lame but the TV 📺 today is goat 🐐 tripe. ABC Afterschool specials were wholesome programming

[@maxsparks5183]

As funny as it is it is heartbreaking. Younger parents vote for a nanny state because they truly believe everyone must be constantly monitored to insure life is risk free. It’s called LIVING people. Most of your kids are only allowed to EXIST. There’s a difference.

[@rodneykingston6420]

She's making it up about the one starring Jodie Foster as a heroin addict, isn't she? I don't remember it and I would have.

[@andytay5507]

Well, Tammy, at least your boy'l have someplace to live when he gets old.😉

[@paulsansonetti7410]

is she trying to be the white female Steve Harvey? its more nostalgia than funny.

[@andytay5507]

She's Seinfeld, Dangerfield, moreso.
