OK, random but has anyone seen that commercial (for Staples or something) with the guy handing out posters for his missing rubberband ball? The ones that say "LOST" in big letters? Every time I see that I think, "That should be a commercial for Lost". How cool would that be, like people are trying to get the word out about Lost. OK, maybe it should really be for some less-watched but equally deserving show, like Veronica Mars, but it would be neat to play on the viewers' expectations that the flyer would be for some Lost object and is instead for a TV show.
Or maybe I've put WAY too much thought into this.
It does always seem to be on DURING Lost. Which is smart, because we're all so obsessed that when we see the 'Lost' posters, we pay attention.
arby, I've definitely noticed them, especially when they appear
during
Lost.
We thought it was cute, but then they appeared during
Alias
too. I don't watch any other ABC shows, so I don't know if there's any pattern.
The Rubberband Man! I love the Rubberband Man.
Maybe it's subliminal! Glad to know I'm not the only one.
I, too, Dana. And I feel very sad for him, for lo, he has lost his very identity. And some poor, probably well-meaning, soul has tried to replace it with the mundane, and not the true Rubberbands of the Rubberband Man.
And yeah, I always look at that ad and think, huh, Lost. Shortly after that I think, Gee, I hope he recycles all that paper. And the used ink cartridges.
There is a new commercial, Liese. And, you know, not to spoil it for you, but things turn out okay in the end.
What do you mean "not to spoil it"??? You've totally ruined the ad!
Hey, it aired over a week ago!
