From 1989, an original 30 second TV ad for UHF:

From the "Bad Hair Day" AL-TV special, the epic saga of Al's tattoo:

And just for fun, from 1989, an ad for "Camp MTV" featuring Al and Michael Richards. Alas, I don't have the actual show.

"The Big Al Show" was MTV's "The Big...Show," a short-lived 1989 late-night variety show with music videos, live bands, performance artists and a different host each week. Al hosted for a week to promote UHF, so that week it was "The Big Al Show." Around the same time, Yahoo Serious hosted for a week to promote Young Einstein, so THAT week it was "The Big Yahoo Show." Get it? Me neither. The whole thing was kind of a failed experiment.

NEW CLIP! And it's a good one. From 1985, it's "The Weird Al Yankovic Report," a commercial in which Al promotes the Showtime premiere of "The Compleat Al" through impressionistic interpretation.

I don't think anyone mentioned this...but Al just recently put up several short videos on his youtube channel of him doing goofy things. I don't know how else to describe them, so you can just go to his channel and watch them. :)

I especially like this one...just because i'm a stickler for good grammar. :P
