Desperate Housewives‘ Kathryn Joosten is a proud lung cancer survivor. She has beaten the disease twice and is concerned that the hit show Mad Men is enticing viewers to smoke.
She said:
“I think they should at least have a disclaimer at the front of the show saying smoking is relevant to the time and place with the subject matter we’re dealing with and it is not recommended because it causes cancer. They should at least do that.
Mad Men producers should also provide annual chest x-rays “for any member of the cast and crew who wants one.”
Great idea! Just because Don Draper does it, doesn’t mean you have to light up!
