* The Kildred from ''TheSkyCrawlers'' all smoke, despite of the fact that they're all kids. Or maybe because of it, as they do not age [[spoiler:and they keep "dying" and returning with new memories]], so they don't really need to worry about something like lung cancer.

** The 1920's through the 1960's were probably the RealLife zenith for this trope; before circa 1920, most men smoked pipes or cigars of various sizes and grades (or chewed tobacco), and it was considered highly unsuitable for women to smoke, particularly in public. Cigarettes really got going as a consumer item in the late 19th and early 20th century.

** Of course, it's not ''literally'' everyone. A few characters (Pete Campbell being the most notable) don't smoke. WordOfGod states that the non-smoking characters are the ones whose actors were never smokers in RealLife; even though the cigarettes are herbal, this is apparently important to them. When you consider how many of the characters ''are'' smoking, you really start to wonder about actors.

* Watch almost any cooking-based reality show that shows contestants during their breaks, and you'll see every single contestant smoking like a chimney. This is somewhat ironic, as pointed out by Gordon Ramsay (famous chef and host/judge of Hell's Kitchen). He does ''not'' smoke and has berated contestants for the habit, which deadens the sense of taste and actually makes them ''worse'' chefs than they would be otherwise.
