Showtime To Make Local Mall Fountain Bubble With Promotional Blood
mark · 09/27/07 02:08PMIgnoring for a moment that someone in the Gawker Media ad sales department is currently rolling around in the pile of ensanguined Showtime cash they were paid to spatter some blood on Mr. Defamer's face (apparently, he got a little roughed up during Peter Krause's guest stint), we note an even gorier campaign the network is using to raise awareness of Dexter: Over at Hollywood and Highland today, Showtime is dumping a bunch of red dye into the mall's fountain, hoping that tourists don't mistake the innocent promotion of their company's signature color with some kind of disturbing attempt to turn the font into some kind of burbling cauldron in which the lovable serial killer boils his deserving victims down to their bones.
