  OMG, did you watch Bones when Avatar was going to come out? They did a whole episode on it. It was ridiculous.

  Don't watch any of the USA shows (which I love)- they are horrible at the product placement.  

  I think it was the last Covert Affairs episode where one of the characters was taking beer out of the fridge.  Camera inside fridge, grabs two bottles, somewhat out of focus... bam- clearer than day, Bud Light.

  And then on Royal Pains they've plugged a few cars the latest being the Sienna.   

  Fuuck TTC - I'm moving on.

  They highlighted the feature that tells you when you are out of your lane. It did go from regular conversational tone to complete robot reading from script.

  I have noticed a lot of shows have started doing this and it is getting annoying.

  It's because of DVR devices. More and more people are recording their shows so we fast forward through the commercials so they have to be super sneaky and put them in the show. 

   Leverage was plugging the hell out Hyudai's last season. Kind of made me laugh.

  Bones is one of my favorite shows, but the ads in the show got ridiculous this season. They did it another time when Bones asked Angela why she was driving a mini van and she said the Toyota Blah Blah has so much room I can fit so much in the back! Plus the entire episode dedicated to Avatar was beyond ridiculous!
