Brandon Bird’s offering is typically genius, but there’s a lot of other great and unexpected stuff in there. A little heavy on the Kevin Smith and Wizard of Oz, but there is a “Strange Brew” one in there so all’s right with the world.
I hate Fanta… I love these commercials.
A week ago, rather seredipitiously, both Buzzfeed and Laughing Squid featured my Mad Men doodles. I got a great flurry of hits on the Flickr and like a magnificent brain fever, it was all over in three days. Despite that, I’m going to stick to it and do one spot a week for the duration of the series. Click the picture to download the full-size.
And from last week, in case you missed it—

Mad Men is a show on television that I enjoy watching and a second season of programs has just begun. Tonight, I understand, there is to be another new episode, but since I watch them on the “iTunes” I won’t see it until tomorrow at the earliest.
I though the premier was a bit “soft”—baffling to new viewers lured by the unrelenting hype of the last few months and not much to offer old hands other than showing every single character (including “Dean*” the Accounts Manager who hasn’t had a line since Pete went on his honeymoon) doing… things to remind who’s on the show.
Maybe that was the secret clue? Whoever wasn’t seen doing something mundane in the first episode probably committed suicide between November 1960 and February 1962. Hmmm… Hildy the secretary wasn’t shown combing her hair or eating a sandwich or installing a dimmer switch or really, appeared in the episode at all. Hildy has committed suicide. That’s the big reveal for this season. Done! Solved!
I love you, Mad Men. You’re ridiculous.
