Animated Star Trek PSA "The Eye of the Beholder"

Public Service Announcement from the Animated STAR TREK series for the episode "The Eye of the Beholder" written and animated by Curt Danhauser.

Several animated Saturday morning series beginning in the 1970's had a 30-second "message" aimed at teaching the children viewers a lesson, like staying away from downed power lines and not being a bully.

Filmation was actually the first studio to add a moral in the form of an epilogue at the end of Saturday morning cartoon episodes. They made their debut in conjunction with Filmation's Hardy Boys series in 1969, but they didn't become a regular epilogue element until 1972 as part of Filmation's Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids series.

No Public Service Announcements (PSAs) were made for the initial broadcast of the animated STAR TREK series. Just for fun, I decided to create 30-second Animated STAR TREK PSAs with the type of lessons that might be learned from each Animated STAR TREK episode. They were written seriously just like the ones that were seen on Saturday mornings in the 1970's and 1980's, but when viewed with today's sensibilities, they will probably seem quaint and perhaps humorous.
