>show is called "Mad Men" >doesn't have

Who was kinsey!?

>>82483242
Ginsberg you fool

>>82483242
What about the James Bond-like intro?

>>82483242
Mad Men is short for Madison men because they worked on Madison Avenue.

>>82483305
Why were they mad though?

>>82483242
betty was a mad man

>>82483353
because of how high the renting is in Madison av.

>TV show focused on product placement, "justified" with 'B-BUT IT'S ABOUT ADVERTISERS!'

>>82483425
you are braindead

>it's a tv didnt even watch the show it's posting about episode
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
boring, seen this

>>82483492
BUY MORE COCA COLA PRODUCTS.

>>82483425
advertising doesn't work on me because of my appalling memory

>>82483524
what he said >>82483492

>>82483378
And it's only gotten worse. Why didn't they make the series in modern times, if people should be that much madder because of rent prices?

>>82483524
If AMC took money for product placement they would've disclosed this with investors. Yet they haven't so it didn't happen

>>82483591
>Yet they haven't so it didn't happen
It seems like a missed opportunity because the sponsorships might have been seamless, appropriate, and free money.

>>82483591
So you're saying AMC used real products for their show without asking/getting paid for it?

Yeah, sure.

>>82483631
Mad Men focused mainly on products that don't even exist anymore, like Lucky Strike?!?!

now go back to staring at walls with your mouth open

>>82483631
Yes. A lot of the products and companies they use are defunct. They are used simply because of the brilliance of their day. The few exceptions are things like coca cola and lucky strike

>"There is no product placement, because everything they did show are no longer in production and being sold.... Aside from these few things..."

What?

>>82483659
Also the way they portray how cynical and assholy the lucky strike men (and indeed the sterlin cooper people too) are isn't exactly positive product placement

>no one ever falls down the broken elevator shaft

Dropped.

>>82483699
You do know product placement doesnt actually entail having a story around them right? Product placement is like watching the latest capeship movie and having the soulless characters randomly use their iphone/samsung/sony product without even acknowledging it

If you want to product place you dont attach a sob story (negative association) to it

Retard

>>82483699
They used what was popular in the 60s because that made it realistic. How would you have done the show?

>>82483742
>Don never falls off a building onto a couch
Dropped.

>>82483792
>How would you have done the show?
An hour of January Jones reading me a bedtime story and tucking me in. It would air every night until I'm dead.

>showing people literally smoking themselves to death and getting cols from lucky strike is product placement
>show how an ad agency and account cynically try to move around the whole cancer debacle of the 1960s is somehow product placement because it shows the product in such a positive light?
