Can you guess these brand names?

What brands can you see in thie pictures below?

And was the show really disliked by all of those brand makers?!

1)

(and no, it's not what you're thinking! :wow: )

3)

#7 is a freebie... :D

(don't you love it when they edit out names in programs? Also note, they weren't this cheap in the "Married with Children" DVD that featured a huge honkin' grocery store with big brand names!)

1. They might have to pay royalties to those companies...

...if the full brand name is revealed on the air. Everyone in the industry wants their cut.

3. My guess is that these companies would not be paying for the advertising.

Why give Reynold's Wrap free advertising?

4. Yet we buy and wear shirts with corporate logos on them. We pay them for

advertising THEIR name?

Sorry, but our "society" is fucked up. Royally.

6. Brand placement is big business...

and I don't know exactly what was going on in that show, but nowadays every show gets, or solicits, offers to have products placed or mentioned.

If you can actually read a brand name, either the show was filmed/taped in a real location and they didn't bother to move the background stuff around, or someone paid to put it there.

8. Exactly. I almost like having to guess which brand is which.

No whoring in the background, that's for sure.

7. What is that in the third picture with the clown face? About the only

one I can't figure out.
