They did that on Bones too. Barf.

I'm glad that it at least fit in the story (from what you've said). I just thought it was funny that it was on a show about ad guys.

And it's not like Heroes in the first season where Hiro constantly said "Nissan Versa" because they were going to dive one across the country (although I love Hiro, and thought it was kind of cute, though not necessary to the story).

Bravo's reality shows do product placement so blatantly it makes me want to stop watching them. Top Chef has run a Quaker Oats challenge and a Diet Dr. Pepper challenge this year alone. Ridiculous.

All of this is why I so love my DVR. I can't tolerate commercials anymore.

I like Alfred Hitchcock's comments while introducing his TV show: "Seeing a murder on television can help work off one's antagonisms. And if you haven't any antagonisms, the commercials will give you some."

That's the thing that sucks- they're doing it because of DVR. People are skipping commercials so they use that as justification to put ads in the show.
