The Harry Situation

Garnier Fructis are running a new ARG-style marketing campaign based around a fake TV show called The Harry Situation. The premise is that a sitcom was created, but yanked due to advertiser concerns about the innuendo-laden content.

Most of the story conveniently plays out on a single blog, so you don't have to do much hunting. I wish they'd used a video community to host the clips as I would have liked to embed them, but you'll just have to go take a look. Visual entendres and veiled sexual references abund, and make me wonder if the Creative Director was British, because this is exactly the kind of sitcom we've been churning out in the UK for years. (For the US audience, I'd recommend any movie with the words "Carry On.." in the title).

I'd love to watch more but I have to go and claw out my eyeballs with a spork now.

Dear Garnier Fructis, what did I ever do to you?
