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.
Riley: No pulse. Anya: Yup. The space lamb got 'im.
'Never Leave Me'
Lost: OMGWTF POLAR BEAR
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)
Maybe it's subliminal! Glad to know I'm not the only one.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh. Good.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What do you mean "not to spoil it"??? You've totally ruined the ad!

Then you should stay out of the NADFA threads.
