 Talking TiVo on Friends (in US)

See this: http://www.avsforum.com/ubbtivo/Forum1/HTML/006020.html

Apparantly they've started doing subtle product placement in the current US series of Friends. Anybody know if they're a series ahead of us? When will this series reach us.

Anyway, there's a TiVo sticker on Joey's fridge, a TiVo doll in the room and a Sony TiVo above the TV! Kinda cool!

Otto grabbed a few pics of this and posted them here: http://otto.50megs.com/imgs/

If product placement becomes big in the US, will the BBC still be able to show programmes imported US programmes with blatant placements (if they break BBC guidelines)... hmm...

Neil.

US ebay.com is the best place to buy dolls (about $5.00 usually + shipping) until tivo.com opens an official store and sells the big mugs, dolls, stickers, clothing, etc.

TiVo dolls were given away at the UK users forum in London - you should have come along!

Ah! I wondered if that's what you were angling at but I looked at the pic again and realised the TiVo doll was quite blurry and if you didn't know what one looked like then you might not recognise it!

Ooh, I wish I had now. Alas at the time I'd considered the cost of the flights just too much, but if I'd know there were toys...
