Flemish Television Promotes the series “24” with a Mock Epidemic Outbreak

Channel 2, a Flemish commercial television station, had a very interesting view on how they show promote the hit series “24”. Several people dressed up in virus intervention suits outside of central station and handed out flyers. The copy of the flyers read: ““Warning ! A deadly virus threatens the city ! Keep your doors and windows closed. Close the roll-down shutters. Turn on the television.” This is an extreme promotion that would absolutely not allowed in North America, but it’s a great success in capturing the audience.
