DISCONTINUED - UNCOVERING HARLEY-DAVIDSON'S COLOGNE FLOP

Cinemavixion Review

This episode of 'Discontinued' delves into fascinating forgotten ventures, offering a nostalgic yet critical look at business blunders and brand extensions gone awry. Host Bruce Campbell, a familiar face from the 'Evil Dead' franchise, guides viewers through a quartet of intriguing case studies. We journey from McDonald's ambitious but ultimately failed Arch Deluxe burger to the vibrant, albeit short-lived, teen club Videopolis at Disneyland. The documentary also sheds light on Harley-Davidson's unexpected foray into the fragrance market with a cologne and perfume line, a venture as surprising as it is ill-fated. Rounding out the collection is a look back at the iconic high school television series 'Saved By the Bell.' The narrative is enriched by the insights of 'Discontinued Documentarians' and 'Nostalgia Aficionados,' who provide colorful and detailed accounts of these bygone products and experiences. It's a compelling exploration of how even established brands can misstep in their attempts to diversify or capture new markets.
