RDA's commercial

[imported_Sandman]

Okay so maybe it wasn't a commercial per se...i'm not quite sure what the proper word is for it but...

tonight i was watching 'New Ground' on tv (syndicated) and the channel it was on aired a commercial, or whatever it's called, with RDA telling kids to stay in school. he was in his sg-1 bdu's in front of the gate and i just thought it was pretty cool and was wondering if anyone else saw it.

C L!!!!!

What what what?
Tell me more? What was the ad ...um ... advertising?!? And I s'pose you're in the US?

Sandman, that's way cool.

Almost takes the sting outta the commercials -- almost.

What station in SD was that on? Up north we have the syndicated Stargate on the local Fox affiliate, and didn't get that.

Yes, it was in the US (sorry).
It's a local channel. KUSI 9/51 where i am (San Diego). During this time slot there's usually tons of AF comercials, but this is the first one to do with sg-1 or RDA!!!

I'm gonna play my tape back and see if i can sort of transcribe it or something if anyone's interested. But i can't do visual or anything.

transcript (as close as i can get it) to the RDA commercial:

[RDA sitting in front of the gate says:
"Hi, i'm Richard Dean Anderson. On Stargate SG-1, we discovered that the stargate device could be used to explore an endless variety of adventures. Your device for endless adventures is a good education. No matter what your goals might be, you'll go a lot further if you don't drop out. So keep your options open--stay in school."

Clips from the show are played throughout, alternating with RDA. Sponsored by the USAF]
