'80s Celebrities Slur About Alcohol

thumbnail icon: '80s Celebrities Slur About Alcohol

Everythingisterrible dragged up this weird PSA/self-help video from the '80s called "Your Alcohol IQ," in which then-celebrities from LA Law and whatnot prove that they don't know anything about alcohol. If this was supposed to be about encouraging regular people to drink responsibly, it's a total fail, because most of the celebrities seem drunk themselves. And what is up with Patrick Duffy? Did he come straight from a guest starring gig on Little House On The Prairie? This is must-see:

Mickey Dolenz from The Monkees: "The typical American male is about 8 years old, driving a truck with a gun." And Patrick Duffy thinks America has only been involved in three wars? He loves powdered donuts and beer. So drink responsibly, America!

Apparently Patrick Duffy thinks that Prohibition was a bigger mistake than slavery. Oops! And who's that guy that looks like Larry David, but isn't?
