Warehouse 13

[Teh One Who Knocks]

It smells burned

I popped it in and got distracted.You're right, it was ready at 6:10.

Oh well, I'll just throw some ice cream beside it and no one will know.

Just found this in my e-mail box

You are fuckin' kidding!!!

OMG!!! They are whores!!!

[Hal-9000]

I remember the first time I saw a huge Coke neon billboard in Bladerunner and wondered how much advertising revenue was given/taken for that 4 second spot...

Remember back in the good old days when they had to cover the brand names up on TV shows because you couldn't have product placement during the show itself?

[Hal-9000]

Yes..I'm trying to think when the first TV show I watched had blatant products as props....maybe something on HBO like The Sopranos?

[Hal-9000]

I know I'll be the minority...I like it when TV shows use products.It's more realistic to me.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind it when it is just being in the normal course of whatever is happening, but when it becomes a blatant commercial like has happened in 2 of the last 3 episodes of Warehouse 13, then that's just obnoxious.

[Hal-9000]

It's life...like I tried to tell you guys with the Prius.People go to Best Buy, they drive new cars and consume beverages and food.And we talk about it incessantly...like here and in our personal lives.

I'll watch the episode in a minute without knowing the product in question and I'll let you know if I think it was inserted, or a natural part of the story.

[Hal-9000]

Good episode

As for the blatant product or business placement, yes that was pretty bad with Tiger Direct They could have used some generic computer store
for the purposes of the story.It didn't put Tiger Direct in a bad light...certainly didn't promote them either which is weird.Kinda left me with the feeling
that I don't ever want to go to the store because of the shifty employees and maybe getting turned into clay watching a HDTV

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Pete and Myka were hilarious in the episode even though they weren't the main story line

[Hal-9000]

When he took his shirt off for the new guy (and wasn't even drunk yet) to give him a look...I was howling


I didn't know Tiger Direct had retail stores.I thought they were online only in both the States and Canada.

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Even tho it was only a wig, I was kinda liking Myka as a blonde

[Hal-9000]

I've never really seen the attraction with her..I see her more as a comedic actress..
