I’m still watching the 1970s Office… Love it, love peeling apart their campaigns and yelling at the telly disagreeing (or agreeing, sometimes, rarely…) with Paul Shearer.
It’s more than a regular reality tv show to me, it’s a kind of assessment of how well I think I would fare in the advertising world. Once I got somewhat comfortable within the team, I think I would be a bit of a Nicole. I would argue my point, yet be shocked if someone told me to shut up the way Paul did.
I’d need to go to some kind of emotional boot camp to toughen me up. I’m not strong enough to deal with the “constructive” criticism Paul offers them… Sounded rather destructive to me sometimes.
I’ve found Victor’s ideas generally poor, but what shocks me, is that he is responsible for the painfully annoying elephant.co.uk adverts. I mean, what was he thinking?! Or what were the directors thinking when they allowed those completely unimaginative adverts to go through to tv?
I guess Paul Shearer is my Simon Cowell! π
