Welcome, Sterling Cooper

Well, look at this little past meets present! McCann Erickson, the big bad wolf that bought up Sterling Cooper in the season finale (and screwed over Betts on her big Coca Cola ad!), has put up a video on their main site that cheekily excerpts all the McCann references in “Shut the Door, Have a Seat”.

The video will be up for a week or “until Matthew Weiner yells at us for doing it,” as per a McCann exec in this article.

Of course, they thought they’d be sneaky enough to get the last “there will be diamonds on the doorknobs” line past us, but! not so fast! that line is from season 2, re: the Putnam Powell and Lowe merger.
