I am probably not allowed to make this joke of an ad, but
I’m going to anyway, because I think it would make a great ad campaign.
We open on a Jane Austin-style movie scenario, with everyone
wearing Victorian outfits and speaking in an upper-class English accent, and a
woman is being difficult to her beau, or her best friend, etc. (There would be
a campaign of a few scenarios.), and then, when they get mad at her, she
apologizes, saying her cramping is bothering her. Then the (female) announcer
chimes in, saying: “Period drama? Try Midol!” Then we see the same people in
current clothing, and everyone is getting along wonderfully. And the slogan is:
“Midol makes your period drama disappear.”
