Unique Whips
Today I didn’t have a chance to watch The Simpsons but I did catch this show called Unique Whips. This show is all about the custom car shop called Unique Autosports, they will take care of customizing your whip also known as your car. They customize cars for their regular clients as well as a long list of celebrity customers. In the shop they do a number of things including all kinds of electronics, dashboards, carpet, seats, window tints, rims, tires, and boxes for the subwoofers and amplifiers for you sound systeme. I have watched this show before but never really noticed all the advertising that goes on during the show. I never really paid attention to how many banners and signs that they have around their shop so that in the background of the show you see all the brands they use on the show to customize the cars. Besides all the signs there is a lot of name dropping in the show, the whole time they are talking about the brands of the components that they use in the cars. Every time they show a finished car they say we hooked this car up with the Motorola Bluetooth and an ipod port for their music. But it’s not only those they talk about the Pirelli tires, and the Strut Grills. I always complained about how many commercials that there are but I never really realized how many advertisements that are on during the show. No don’t get me wrong this isn’t a bad show, this happens in many shows it is just hard to notice.

Oh, so sneaky, blending the television assignment with the reading assignments! Of course, you're not always going to be able to do this, and eventually you'll have to start applying your postings to larger issues, but this is cool this week! Excellent posting!
