Zoloft parody

You've probably seen those ubiquitous Zoloft commercials -- where the little ovoid creature is incredibly sad and depressed. (There's one above, in an example of a teensy Zoloft ad.) They're actually incredibly affective commercials, I think, in part because they do a superb job at evoking the deep weariness that accompanies depression. Though it's probably true that antidepressant medication is overprescribed right now in America, it is nonetheless a crucial way for depressed people to get help. Real, serious depression is nothing to scoff at.
But still ... when I saw the Zoloft-ad parody that's been making the rounds online, I couldn't help but giggle my head off. It neatly skewers the bathetic pseudoscientific illustrations that Zoloft uses in its ads. Check it out online here!
(Thanks to Gwin for this one!)

Tee hee! That's hilarious! Thanks!
Heya, that is really funny, but it is not the only Zoloft parody out there...there was one on either MadTV or Sat. Night Live that was those little ovoid guys on ecstasy...I've been searching for that one and can't find it. :(
Yeah, I can't find it online either!
It's a MadTV bit, and you can find it here:

I put mine out in June of last year...not sure when the MadTV folks did theirs. If it was after June, that means I win, right?
