      OrdkaMarlSkirata It's pretty obvious he invented it. There's literally a *lightning bulb* moment when he's meditating. A bunch of people in the episode commented on how Draper was going to come back (Roger). Some of the singers are dressed similarly to the hippies at his commune. Also, Don tried to find happiness wandering around on his own, but he failed. He figured out he's an advertising man at heart and found inner peace in accepting it.

    "Advertising is based on one thing. Happiness. And you know what happiness is? Happiness is the smell of a new car. It's freedom from fear. It's a billboard on the side of the road that screams reassurance that whatever you are doing is okay. You are okay."

Not because of cheap sentiment, but because it reminds me of how very hateful and bitter so many people are today who cannot enjoy a display of togetherness among people of different nationalities. They have to spit on this idea and belittle it. That is because their souls dried up and died long ago.

That doesn't mean an ad can't be appreciated on its own. Just keep in mind that the creatives at an ad agency work under a lot of pressure to come up with results (=$$$).

      IMO the main problem is that more audience wants realism, they want the things happened on TV to be things that occur in their daily lives. As a result, stars are similar to the average public, and the plots are even less dramatic than what an average person encounters on an average day.

Now 50 years later, I am a senior citizen with a head full of gray hair and living in a world where we need lots of LOVE. This commercial brings us back to happier times. The jingles should make a comeback once again. There were some great jingles during the 60's and 70's. There was the great jingles battle between Coca-Cola and Pepsi and RC(Royal Crown) colas. The great battles between cigarettes and cigars . Bring back the jingles and help make the world and people more caring towards those who are different from us.
