The Dead Zone
Aug. 23rd, 2004 12:34 amOn the show tonight, someone was unpacking a shopping bag and had placed two boxes side by side. In one shot, the Cheez-it label is very prominently displayed. In the next cut to that character, the Cheez-its have been moved so we can clearly see the box with a Ragu label. Third cut to that character, the Cheez-it box is back to its glaring front and centerness. Now, luckily I have TiVo because I could rewind and actually listen to the dialogue that I was completely distracted from the first time.
Product placement is bad enough, but when it's done so clumsily and annoyingly, it really subtracts from an otherwise fine show. Bad show, no biscuit!!
