It is my personal belief that one of the worst things you can do in writing is to drop the names of various brands.
"Oh of course I can come to your dinner party, Sylvia," Donald said. He switched the phone to his less dominant hand and used the other to put out his cigarette. "I mean, it seems only natural that I be there, being that we both plan to kill your husband tonight before running away to Cocomo together. But, I fear that I might be a tad bit late. I just must finish this episode of Glee!"
See? It's like that. Unnecessary branding can ruin the mood quicker than the knowledge that Cocomo isn't actually a place-and, besides, when you get published (and I mean you, you magnificent beauty of a human being, you), how will the people reading your Great American _____ know what a Volvo is and why it makes the sparkly vampire all the more sparkly?
So let's bite this habit, right here and now. Everyone reading this is now obligated (by science) to create below a completely new brand for the following:
A Television Show/Game Show
A Popular Potato Chip*
And A Summer Blockbuster
You can even include descriptions if you'd like.
I'll start.
Cops and Rob Her! - A delightful Odd-Couple-esc sitcom where a rookie cop and an ex-con have to work together to go undercover in a secret circle of petty thieves.
RADishes - Delicious radish-shaped potato chips that also taste like radishes, and are therefor "Rad". Similar, but completely different from Funions.
My Mother's a Communist! - a hard hitting docu-drama starring someone awkward and charming, and whatever big-eyed bigger-bossomed woman is hot on the market these days. Spoiler alert, his mother's a communist.
*Like "Lay's" or "Dorito's". Not just the name of a chip that everyone likes. (Stephen, maybe?)
