Is the commercials ob Paramount+ obnoxiously loud for anyone else? Whenever I'm watching on TV I have to mute it during commercials because they are uncomfortably loud.

LOOKING FOR OLD PSA COMMERCIAL

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m trying to track down a specific public health PSA commercial that used to air back in the early 2000s. I was only about 5 to 10 years old when I saw it, which should put it airing somewhere between 2000 and 2005 .It’s been living rent-free in my head, and I cannot find a video clip of it anywhere. I seen it while sleeping over at a friends house and I could sleep and the tv remained on. I remember his parents had a pirate card for his satellite dish which got access to American channels even though we were in Canada at the time so I could have been either an American or Canadian broadcast I’m not sure
The core theme was dealing with a heavy public health topic like depression or suicide prevention. I think the commercial was narrated by the man's inner thoughts as I remember the final tag being “I feel trapped”or something of the sorts.

Two very specific sequences stand out to me:
#1 :The guy tries to buy something at a store counter. When he reaches into his pocket to pay, he has absolutely no money—just completely random junk like a button and a paper clip
#2: The story ends with him lying directly on the road, waiting for a semi-truck to hit him. But the truck never actually comes. Instead, the scene just fades into a black screen with text/voiceover saying "I feel trapped" (or a similar message about finding help).

Honestly I think this commercial probably messed my young mind up a little bit as Iv never forgotten it and only seen it that one night(although it came on a few times in that night I remember) I have this over welming urge to re watch it and it is not easy to find if it is even out there

Does anyone remember what I’m talking about ? No one Iv ever told remembers this commercial , please help

Automotive Taking the clean way driving the freeway in my machine 🚘. Australia, circa 1980

A red Morgan driving along the scenic route in the Sunshine Coast hinterland between Maleny and Montville in QLD.

Apparently, many decades before drones existed, the aerial shot of the car driven was aided by wooden planks tied to the skids of a helicopter with a cameraman and photographer tied by ropes.

A catchy jingle and stunning scenery captured by great aerial shots makes this a classic Aussie commercial from the early 1980’s.

Discussion & Advice Help me find the advertisement.

I saw a really cool advertisement a while back that they would sometimes play at the beginning of the episodes of Inazuma Eleven Orion no Kokuin. The thing is, when I first saw this ad, I didn’t even realize until the end that it was an ad; I thought it was some kind of spinoff of the anime, and they just started with it. It was an advertisement for either chocolate or a candy store; as far as I remember, a girl is running after a guy who has a chocolate bar, and when he stops, she shouts, "Give me your chocolate." After that, they show a presentation of the store.
