Not exactly a shop on TV, but I spotted an item I thrifted on TV...

I was catching up on some TV I missed and I spotted my 50's floor lamp on an episode of Jericho (I think it was season 1, episode 12)

Here's what I saw on the episode...



And here's a photo of my floor lamp...




How cool is that?

To answer your question, that, sir, is very cool indeed!

[Big Daddy Audio]

Sweet.  I love discoveries like this.

I discovered that some of my wife's kitchen utensils (slotted spoon, ladle, and fork) were the same ones Aunt Beru used back on Tatooine "a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away."

I immediately put them away, since they are so old and from so far, far away.

Glad to know that I am not the only one who would get excited over seeing something I owned validated by being used in a TV show. Bragging rights are allowed.
and Good Eye!

Thanks, I almost missed it because the scene was dark, and the lamp was only in the shot for a couple of seconds.

I'm just glad to know I'm not the only one who starts fixating on the lamps and other things in TV and movie sets. I was watching "Heroes" not long ago, wanting one of the characters to get out of the way so I could see this table lamp in the background.

It just ain't right.

TSR - One of the things I love about watching That 70's Show is seeing all the cool props in the background, especially in the kitchens.  Susan and I will watch it and be constantly saying OOOH!  I have that! to each other.

While I remember Jay-- though it's off-topic-- I finally got to see in an antique mall the Pyrex hot-air balloon chip and dip setup, with the big bowl I have and then the small dip bowl with the metal thing. VERY cool- and extremely helpful info. So thanks for letting me know, or I never would have noticed it.

That is so neat!     

 I really should watch "That 70's show" just for the decor.

On Thanksgiving day, I watched part of the old black and white version of "Miracle on 34th street" and I saw my coffee pot that I just got. Its a Sunbeam vacuum coffee pot. Now, I have the stove top vacuum coffee pot and the electric version. I also recently found a revere ware oven top perculator which I didn't realize was so collectible. The same model was selling for $50 on ebay!

LOL @ TSR I always look at the background stuff in tv shows and movies! Glad Im not the only one! And Jay...I love that 70's show...esp the kitchen, Blackwidow has the ice bucket and I have ..I think its called blendo glass, the glass pitcher they show...its so good to be among ppl who just get it!

[Jay2TheRescue]

Blenko glass is cool.  Its actually somewhat of a local product here.  I think the factory where its made is about 1 - 2 hours from my house.
