Another Purell World
Using Purell Means Never Having To Say..
You're Sorry.

When you put together a great Soap Opera style movie, a great song,
a great movie line and a great moment in Figure Skating you get a
great evolution in advertising. A 60-second soap opera called Another
Purell World. Yes, a namesakes to the most pathetic cancellation in
television history.
Every weekday, on all 9 Soap Operas the lives of Jamie Sale' and
David Pelletier shows how she obsesses about using Purell to stay
healthy. It would play out like soap opera with storylines and not
individual commercials like the horribly sexist Glade commercials.
In the first storyline, Jamie is in bed sick (looking a great
deal like Ali Mcgraw) with David (looking a great deal like Ryan
O'Neill). To the Love Theme in Love Story, David apologizes to Jamie
for not using Purell much recently.. Right at the climatic music part
where they did their first jump, Jamie cries the eternal tag line:
Using Purell Means Never Having To Say.. You're Sorry.
Although most episodes would be serious following the Soap Opera
form, there would be comic episodes like occurred on Passions or Santa
Barbara-for which most of you dedicated fans probably remember.
In one episode Jamie would complain during child birth that
David didn't use Purell when he used the facilities. In one wedding
flashback Jamie puts some Purell on David's hands before he reaches
over to the best man to get the ring.
Similar to Soap Operas every episode every afternoon would be
different and would air at the same every weekday. Basically, becoming
part of the daytime afternoon line-up. There would be many possible
duets who could play Jamie and David. My choices would be Florencia
Lozano and Trevor St.John. But Natalia Livingston and Christopher
Tyler, Rebecca Herbst and Greg Vaughn would be just a few of the many
great combinations to lead this evolution in advertising that would be
the first to pay tribute, by imitation to the Soap Opera art form.
The current Glade commercials might have series. But, they are
so sexist and subordinate women to being nothing more than lying,
superficial. lazy housewives who make their husbands take their kids
to school while she pretends to have a lot to do. Then merely plugs in
a Glade goes to play tennis, dine out then get ready to spend her
husband's hard earned money on yoga, spas and get togethers then lies
about how much work it takes to have a house so clean smelling. WHY
LIE ABOUT USING A GREAT PRODUCT.
Why doesn't the advertising agency maybe have commercials where
this character realizes how little she has to do for a clean smelling
house and gets a job. She goes off to work has a busy day making money
and contributes to the family's income.After a long day of car
fumes,maybe she's a nurse dealing with hospital smells, she walks in
the door to a great smelling home with the tag line "After a long work
day, Thank God for Glade."
Every afternoon on APW, there would be a cameo appearance by a
current or former Soap Opera cast member. With fans wondering who is
going to be on tomorrow, or how their favorite soap star did so great.
Similar to how Soaps become part of a person's daily life, so to
would be Another Purell World, which would lead to using Purell as
part of a person's daily life.
Soap opera fans could post on message boards all the problems
they have with concerns over germs and how they try to get everyone in
their lives to use Purell. Just like you do when you want someone off
who was really poorly re-cast to play "Carly" on General Hospital.
Almost as bad as Christine born in 2002 now in college.
No other fans are so constructive in their feelings towards
their shows than Soap fans. When you want Soly broke up, or Rebecca
Buddig to not be called "The Real Greenlee" when Sabine Sigh did a
great and maybe better job, you speak out. You're not just passive
viewers like in Prime Time that could care less about what or who is
on tonight.
Many products have commenced their initial marketing
exclusively on daytime dramas. In particular the very successful start
of VFusion not only started a great market but also showcased the need
for Women's Heart Health. Using it's own soap opera, Another Purell
World would artistically showcase the need for hand
sanitizers. Of course when it comes to one soap fan being
having more utility than a dozen prime time fans was Kelly Monaco's
underdog win over a prime-time #1 show actor- that sore loser called
John O'Hurley.
A tribute to soap opera fans would be far better than
Purell's last two campaigns. One a bizarre use of MC Hammer's rap song
to appeal to basically Hockey Moms who want to keep their family away
from rappers, with the tag line. With Purell You Can Touch This.
Then there was the most boring commercial quite possibly in
advertising history with a tag line "Imagine a Touchable World" that
virtually no one remembers.
If Soap Opera fans would like to add another glorious success
to their history they could send a fax to the advertising agency,
JWT.com(212) 210-7299 or mail to JWT 466 Lexington New York, New York
10017-3140 that has the account. The only e-mail address that I have
been able to find that doesn't produce a mailer deamon is
mark....@jwt.com. For those with home faxes that can send dozens for
only a few pennies, below are the number for all the advertising
agencies that handle Johnson and Johnson Consumer Pharmaceuticals, who

So, wait...One Life to Live has NOT been cancelled, then? I admit, I
couldn't get through this post without my eyes glazing over, so I have no
idea.

<Snipped long, boring BS post>

This is trollage me thinks. The same person also posted the same thing
about Smallville and GH and who knows how many others. Looking at
their Google profille history (ever so handy i must say) this person
has a history of posting off topic garbage in disguise of a real
post.
See for yourself:

OK, I searched the entire rant for "One Life To Live" and guess what, not
one mention. Only General Hospital was mentioned once, in passing.

Seriously, subjects that have nothing to do with the content are annoying
and lame. My comment is :-P

Just IMHO, YMMV. ;-)
