I’m surprised that no one’s making more of a point of the giant BMW product placement. I admit to not paying that much attention to product placement on past shows, but it just jumped out and screamed at me from this...

FWIW, I think Alton Brown used a Cuisinart WMR-CA on “Good Eats”. Amazon has on sale right now for under $30. Do I believe everything I see on his show? I take it all with a grain of salt — product endoesements/...

"Product placement".

, but there was nothing from him between the QF and JT. Product placement was definitely in the forefront this episode – the local Rochester, NY market had its outside shot, and LOTS of Butterball and Calphalon logo shots....

HarryK... Are you saying you’d actually like more advertising inside a show? I’m losing respect for Top Chef because of all the product placement.

As I posted in a comment to the review that Slim listed- I can only hope that the one positive thing that a product of this type and placement can do is bring a few more ryes onto shelves where they hadn’t been before. I do...

Food Network employs people to create fake labels for products. It’s not uncommon for celebrities, networks, movies to do it. Companies pay a lot for product placement.

. Imagine the product placements (“DiFara's AGAIN, honey?”) ... the “very special” holiday episode where Jim and Katie take in the down-on-her-luck Arepa Lady ... and that instant TV classic, The One About...

It probably has to do with product placement... Richard, "What!? Shazam!"

it in the movie, El Hijo de la Novia (there’s that rampant product placement again). Anyway, I’m curious if others have tried it and think it’s worth the $ - today, while browsing at Sur La Table I saw a variety...

was lucky to meet Steve and see his factory as I made my way around the country looking for new products. The only problem? I got hooked on these cheesy lovelies and went through a box a day while in London and 6 months pregnant....
