Video: Lilly Tomlin's Addiction

The 80's were a dark time for some of us. Sure, it might look cool now thanks to a healthy dose of Swatches and a Member's Only jacket, but it wasn't all "slow motion BMX tricks at the dance" for everyone back then. A lot of people had addiction issues. The sad folks that were hooked onto terrible, self-destructive substances and behaviors only one way to reach out when they desperately needed somebody's help: celebrity public service announcements.

Above, you'll find a celebrity PSA for Pac-Man Fever, a condition that struck many people during the time. Telling her brave story of addiction and struggling back into health, out comedienne Lilly Tomlin put a face a Pac-Man Fever when many pretended it would just go away. Thanks for showing us the way, Lilly!
