Product Placement

This list is incomplete. Spot product placement in the series? Add it here!

Product placement occurs in any series. Sometimes it's by accident, the producer pays a fee to display a product, and sometimes the product's company pays for time on the screen.

General

• Almost all of the mobile phones in the series are iPhones.

Nick Burkhardt

• Nick owns a white iPhone 4 with service provided by AT&T.
• Nick uses an LED flashlight Dorcy 41-4297 as police duty flashlight.
• Nick uses an Apple Macbook for work purposes. ("Bears Will Be Bears")

Juliette

• Juliette drives a Subaru. ("Of Mouse and Man")
• Juliette owns a Macintosh desktop computer and surfs the Internet using Apple Safari. ("Big Feet")
• Juliette is seen browsing a site called "KnowZip", an "interactive technology database" which is obviously parodied from Wikipedia. The article she looks up, Parahuman also exists on Wikipedia, though the prop designers took care to see the article contained different text, images, and content. Interestingly, however, the last three sections are identical to those of Wikipedia at that time: "See also", "References", and "External links". "See also" usually would not appear on a Wikipedia article, so the fact it is included both on the source article and on the show is (in a sense) comical. ("Big Feet")
