MICHAEL JACKSON OR JACKSTONE.
12 PICTURES POSTED!
AS I UNDERSTAND THE STORY, THIS SPECIAL CARTOON WAS CREATED FOR THE JUST SAY NO TO DRUGS CAMPAIGN THAT WAS HEADED BY NANCY REAGAN. SEE BELOW FOR THE BEST DETAILS OR DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH, BUT KNOW THAT THIS IS A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A VERY SPECIAL COLLECTIBLE.
The Flintstone Kids learn the value of saying no to drugs as they set out to win tickets to the upcomingMichael Jackstoneconcert. Wilma is tempted to drift away from her usual playmates Freddy, Barney and Betty and join up with a gang of older kids who use drugs. Wilma resists the peer-pressure tactics of pre-teen pothead Stoney and instead seeks advice from her parents, who tell her that a real friend wouldn't offer her drugs. To the tune ofLa Toya Jackson's original composition, "Just Say No," Wilma, Freddy and the others establish their own "Just Say No" club.
Next, Freddy starts up a pet cleaning service to raise ticket money for the upcoming Michael Jackstone concert. But Freddy's get-rich-quick scheme falls through due to Stoney and his gang tampering of the instructions for each pet. After figuring out what the other kids did, the children realize that their only hope of obtaining tickets is to beat Stoney and his gang at the upcoming Riddle Rally, to which they succeeded. Stoney was later arrested for drug usage. The program concludes with a version of Michael Jackson's hit song "Beat It," with the lyrics specially rewritten to convey an anti-drug theme.
This special also features comments from then-First LadyNancy Reagan, Honorary Chair of the "Just Say No Foundation", who offers a message of support to children who have chosen to live a drug-free life.
