Storyline

A deodorant company with a product called "Smell No Mo" pits two rival ad agencies in a race to come up with a campaign for a new-fangled sanitary napkin called Vorcan. The advertising satire follows the New York firm of Cranston & Co. as they fight rival Hoffman & Partners. Cranston fires his creative director which puts a young copywriter with a literature degree on the front line, even though he doesn't want to be. The contest comes down to a schmaltzy campaign by Hoffman with music by Air Supply that uses the tagline "Vorcan: your own personal air supply." or a more down to earth campaign from Cranston of "The pad ain't bad!"

A One Episode Sitcom or a movie?

I just saw this show, and actually kind of liked it. It was like a long sitcom in direction and production, but something enjoyable to watch. Had its moments. I recommend watching it when nothing else is on. as I did at 3:00am. Would probably watch it again. Even though I am not a big Robert Klein fan, it was good. Overall, I give it my cable TV rating.
