Parody Product Placement | comment |
Product Placement is a fixture in media, for good or ill. Like any pervasive concept, especially one that is criticized so often, writers love to play with it. The result is Parody Product Placement, which can take several forms: A work promotes a made-up product, which sometimes exists In-Universe, using over-the-top or absurd claims that would never pass modern advertising standards. "Drink Boka Bola! It cures hangovers, takes off weight, and cleans your teeth!" A work promotes a real product in a way that is blatantly not complimentary or representative of the product's actual marketing claims. "Big Macs: For when you aren't fat enough already!" A work goes over the top in promoting a product, sticking brand labels on everything from street signs to the characters' clothing to the Fourth Wall and having characters mention it in every other sentence. A work takes a tongue-in-cheek ad break to shill a product in a way intended to poke fun at real advertising campaigns. A work makes a big deal out of how it refuses to indulge in product placement while simultaneously blatantly advertising things. (It only counts if it's intended to be humorous or ironic.) Obviously, these aren't the only ways to accomplish the trope, but all share an essential aspect: poking fun at product placement. See also Bland-Name Product, Product Displacement, Prop, Shoddy Knockoff Product, and Trade Snark. |

In Rally Round the Flag, Boys!, a bunch of advertising executives representing a breakfast-cereal company meet with the producer of a Bible Times drama series sponsored by their client to debate the question: "How do we identify King David with Crackle-Crunchies?" They variously propose having David Time Travel into the twentieth-century to eat Crackle-Crunchies and David having a vision of God presenting him with a bowl of Crackle-Crunchies. The producer's own idea is to have King David invent the delicacy of Crackle-Crunchies and write down the secret formula in the Dead Sea Scrolls. | |

One Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics) story features Tails reading a comic within the comic that casts the Freedom Fighters as parodies of the Fantastic Four, with Robotnik serving in the Galactus role. Parodying the ads, Sonic manages to keep from Robotnik from eating the planet by giving him "Twinkles," which has the tagline "You avoid a fight with every bite!" | |

Green Lantern: Secret Files and Origins featured "the tastiest Green Lantern/The Flash team-ups ever!" First, the Golden Age GL and Flash defeat Nazi saboteurs with the aid of Secret Files candy bars and their secret ingredient. Then the Silver Age incarnations use the "space age taste" of Secret Files bars to expose alien criminals disguised as alien policemen (the real policemen absorb energy). Finally the Modern Age versions (Kyle Rayner and Walter Westnote Not Wallace "Wally" West - it's complicated but involves parallel universes and Abra Kadabra) are halfway through an ad for Secret Files Powerbars, before Kyle starts complaining it doesn't make sense. "We defeat the bad guy by giving him food? And why is he standing at ground zero of his own weapon anyway? Who wrote this?" While Kyle argues with the director of what now turns out to be a TV ad, and learns they're still working off Alan and Jay's contracts, Walter learns that the "secret ingredient" is sugar. | |

The Irate Gamer: In his Yo! Noid review, he notes at the beginning that the game's developer sold out by making a bad game based on a Domino's Pizza mascot. As he reviews the game, he wonders why Domino's would do such a thing. He then gets a check from Domino's and decides that selling out isn't a bad thing and starts promoting and namedropping random products ("After all, a logo can go a long way.") while praising the game. He finally stops when he sees how bad the ending is and decides that he'll only sell out to himself. | |

WandaVision: Each of the sitcom parody episodes have in-universe advertisements, such as the Stark Toastmaster 2000, the Strucker Watch ("He'll make time for you!"), and HYDRA Soap. They're also astoundingly (but deliberately) misogynistic as hell, to match the decades they're supposedly from. Eventually, things move into the 2000's, so the fake ads include a Totally Radical claymation yogurt ad that suddenly veers off in a much darker direction, and an ad for an antidepressant that's supposed to make you stop thinking It's All About Me. | |

There is a parody strip where Omaha the Cat Dancer is accosted by a mugger and notices he has his head wrapped in a towel to hold an ice pack to a toothache. In response, she pulls out an unwrapped Twonkie from her purse and (after picking off some of the lint) shoves it in his mouth. As he is writhing in pain, Omaha makes her escape while you see the slogan "You get an oral blight in every bite of 'Hotsizz Twonkies'" | |

RWBY has an in-universe example. One of the students at Beacon, Pyrrha Nikos, is a Famed In-Story warrior and athlete. Jaune only recognizes her from her appearance on the front of Pumpkin Pete's Marshmallow Flakes cereal boxes. A later RWBY Chibi sketch involves her making a commercial for the cereal... where she visibly cannot stand the taste of it. |

The Shadow features a tense standoff between Big Bad Shiwan Khan and the titular hero that, completely out of nowhere, turns into an extended run of the two having a civil conversation about Lamont's exquisite tie and the in-universe tailor's shop which sold it to him. This was done as a parody of classic radio programs often having in-character advertisements for the show's sponsor during its intermission, including the Shadow himself, as voiced by Orson Welles, who shilled for Goodyear Tires during a summer broadcast season in 1938. | |

Idiocracy has product placement everywhere, and it is parodied to show just how shallow and dumb the future is: In Carl's Jr., the most common or popular portion size is 'Extra Big-Ass', such as their fries, and their motto has devolved into "Fuck you, I'm eating!". Fuddruckers is shown devolving into "Buttfuckers", but is actually one of the few businesses to keep their function as a burger place. Costco has grown to the size of a small city, with its own subway system and law school. The guy welcoming people says "Welcome to Costco. I love you." Crocs shoes are made for prisoners. Fox News Channel is still a news network, but has devolved into pure entertainment, with its newscasters dressed like porn stars. Starbucks, H&R Block, and several other places have become brothels. It seems that in the future, parents will name their kids after food companies: Joe's lawyer is Frito (Pendejo), the star of Ow, My Balls! is named Hormel (Chavez), the president's middle name is Mountain Dew, and there's even a reporter named Velveeta. And one named Formica. Essentially every named character from the future has some kind of Product Placement in their name. One Cabinet member constantly drops ad slogans (most notably "Brought to you by Carl's Jr.") into his normal conversation, because they pay him each time he says it. All clothes consist entirely of logos (usually foods). Then there are the misspellings, that seem to accumulate over time due to mankind getting stupider. To list them, they are Buttfuckers, Nas-Tea, Uhmerican Exxxpress and St<A>r8ucks, along with some others. |

Total Drama, being its own Show Within a Show, occasionally engages in product placement from its sponsors, which are just as questionable as everything else it features. Examples include Mary's Lambburger ("Mary had a little lamb.

Homestuck has some jokey references to Betty Crocker (with Gushers being used as health items) and Doritos (with Bro's shitty, glitch-filled licensed skateboarding game.) The former company factors more and more into the story until it's revealed that Betty Crocker herself is Her Imperious Condescension, the ruler of the trolls, and rules the earth (as well as Derse) in the kids' Alpha timeline. Jane is also the heiress to the company in said timeline. | |

Frisky Dingo had some fun with this, as an entire episode simultaneously hawked and mocked the Scion TC: Killface plans to spread his plans for world domination on Live with Mitzi & Verl, but his first segment got bumped because the hosts were so caught up in discussing the car, then it takes up a good chunk of his second segment as well, before he sarcastically screams that once he takes over the world, "you won't have much use for 17-inch alloy wheels". The studio crew takes this impetus to show ad footage of the Scion behind him as he rants about everyone falling victim to "Scion fever", which the hosts and crowd also take and run with. He then storms out of the studio, and gets splashed with mud by a passing Scion TC. | |

In the MAD parody of The Matrix, MoreForUs explains how artificial intelligence has been using human beings as an energy source, and he holds up a battery to show where that energy is stored. The protagonist asks if it's an ordinary battery, and MoreForUs says that it isn't: "It's a Duracell Ultra! It contains at least 20% more humans than any other battery!" | |

In a strip from The Petri Dish, Dr. Thaddeus Euphemism drinks Coca-Cola with a human-sized Coke can behind him. Bob says, "So we're making money with not-so-subtle product placements now?". The next strip reveals that it was their boss Gordon Noble's idea and it was indeed an idea to make money. | |

2000 AD: The Free Comic Book Day 2011 issue featured "Obmoz Battles the Twinklie Winkler!", in which a camp Silver Age villain in a typical 2000 AD Dystopia steals the official Government snackfood, only to be stopped by the Government's zombie crimefighter, Obmoz. Rather permanently. In the Judge Dredd storyline, The Pit, a gang of clearly unbalanced criminals calling themselves the "John Prescott Block Social, Welfare and Leisure Committee" stole a shipment of a nutrition-free but multi-flavored junk food called Grot Pot. This being Judge Dredd, their plan involved shooting a flying delivery truck with a rocket launcher, which then crashed into a monorail and derailed a train, causing mass destruction and the deaths of several people including a judge. Dredd was not happy. |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: WandaVision: Each of the sitcom parody episodes have in-universe advertisements, such as the Stark Toastmaster 2000, the Strucker Watch ("He'll make time for you!"), and HYDRA Soap. They're also astoundingly (but deliberately) misogynistic as hell, to match the decades they're supposedly from. Eventually, things move into the 2000's, so the fake ads include a Totally Radical claymation yogurt ad that suddenly veers off in a much darker direction, and an ad for an antidepressant that's supposed to make you stop thinking It's All About Me. Ms. Marvel (2022) parodied Marvel's old Hostess Fruit Pies ads in the third episode with a short scene where Yusuf Khan buys one and gushes about how delicious they are. |

King Gorilla, one of Monarch's jail buddies from the last part of Season 1 and beginning of Season 2, makes his return in the second half of Season 4. At the welcome back party King Gorilla is now suffering from lung cancer and the gift Monarch gets him? You guessed it — a carton of cigarettes. "The Rusty Venture Show, brought to you by...

In Something*Positive, Davan created stats for a villain from one of those Hostess ads and managed to capture his players, making Jason want to know the saving throw to commit suicide so he wouldn't be killed by such a pathetic villain. Parodied (or Deconstructed?) in Super Stupor, also by R.K. Milholland, as the hero uses these to talk down Deathmaw - only to lament doing so because they feed into Deathmaw's eating disorder, and he hasn't been getting his diabetes treated. |

Despite this, they don't even seem to enjoy the product, endorsing it just for the money. This meant to be another clear sign that Tanking Mann is not a good show, and that the people behind it don't actually care about what they're doing. | |

Another issue featured a straight-up parody of the old Hostess Fruit Pies strips, where supervillain Crab (who is a crab) plots to steal Radioactive Man and Fallout Boy's basket of "Krusty Snak Kakes", with the intention of using their yumminess to bribe local authorities into selling him weapons-grade plutonium. |

Kaeloo: In Episode 135, the show's budget runs low (in-universe), so Kaeloo makes a deal with a sausage company to sponsor them in exchange for product placement. For the rest of the episode, Kaeloo, Stumpy and Mr. Cat stop whatever they're doing every five seconds to say something about sausages. The show's director finds this an excellent idea, so he ends up making them advertise products for several different companies. | |

When nobody buys it for obvious reasons — namely, the label tells people what it does (Dr. D believes in truth in advertising) — he tries to get a famous rapper to plug it in a song, reasoning that people will buy anything if it's plugged in a song. When that doesn't work, he tries to become a rapper via winning an American Idol Expy in order to plug it himself. | |

Futurama: A few jokes mocked this by putting advertising in dreams, and also with Nixon's repeated shilling for "Charleston Chew" during his speeches, although that one might be a matter of them finding Nixon saying "Charleston Chew" hilarious. Used again in the "Gunderson's Nuts Holiday Spectacular Featuring Futurama" By the year 3002, the Academy Awards have added Best Soft Drink Product Placement as an award category, and product placement seems to have become a film genre in itself. Nominees include They Call Me Mr. Pibb and Snow White and the 7Ups. Another episode shows that Star Trek: The Pepsi Generation won an Emmy. |

"Subaru Crosstrek XV" by Hobo Johnson is a Car Song that goes into so much detail about the specifications of the car that it's practically a commercial for the car, particularly in a spoken outro that in the video is overlaid by text disclaiming that it's not a commercial or sponsored by Subaru in any way. | |

Studio C uses Dasani sponsorship ads as a running gag. In The Gary and Carl Show sketches, Gary and Carl claim to be ad free while blatantly advertising Dasani. Eventually they start stealing the taglines from other companies. The vlog-running mafia member from The Vlogfather is sponsored by Dasani. He makes a victim hold a water bottle for product placement, and pauses to give a pitch while breaking into the house of a rival gang. |

In The Proud Family, Oscar Proud managed to get his Proud Snacks onto product placement in the ending of the episode (after his attempts at getting his commercial aired resulted in it being interrupted, the first time due to a pointless breaking news story about a TV show getting cancelled, the second due to Penny protesting). It airs on a TV show, and... well, let's just say that the snacks apparently killed one of the co-stars upon ingestion on-the-air. Also counts as a subtle Take That! to The Parkers. | |

This being Judge Dredd, their plan involved shooting a flying delivery truck with a rocket launcher, which then crashed into a monorail and derailed a train, causing mass destruction and the deaths of several people including a judge. Dredd was not happy. | |

Sealab 2021: A few episodes are choked with fake ads for Grizzlebee's, a riff on the Kitschy Themed Restaurant. "Grizzlebee's: You'll wish you had less fun!" And at that, the episode "Tinfins" was itself one long advertisement for a fake movie, interspersed with advertisements for a fake restaurant. Not to mention during the interviews with the makers of the movie, they clearly had Grizzlebee's. As Captain Murphy learns, you don't mess with corporate sponsors. |

In Moving Pictures, C.M.O.T. Dibbler notices that if a single frame advertising the local eatery is accidentally left in and causes people to think about eating there for lunch, sticking five minutes' worth of the frame right in the middle of the movie will work even better. Dibbler adds increasingly blatant product placement for Harga's House of Ribs into Blown Away (set during the Ankh-Morpork Civil War, 300 years before Harga opened his doors) in a desperate attempt to break even, much to his nephew Soll's disgust. | |

Transmetropolitan: At one point, the main character, Spider Jerusalem, very newsworthy, goes on a booze-fueled rant. As shown in other points, one can clearly click over to buy the booze Spider is holding as he does his thing. In another aspect, Spider, naive to the ways of City life, is hit with an advertising bomb that unloads ads in his sleep. Society isn't completely insane; chemically induced ad visions cause mucho neurological disasters and are illegal...until they aren't for about five minutes every few legal cycles. Guess what the citizens get sprayed with then? And last but not least, the TVs in your home don't seem to have an off switch... Spider's TV might be an exception, though. He explicitly programs it to change channels every twenty seconds in the first issue and leaves it on. Constant information overload probably goes with the territory of being a journalist. | |

The D-Generation: In one sketch, the director of a historical drama about Caroline Chisholm refuses to compromise his vision by resorting to an absurdly anachronistic product placement deal with Burger Palace. Gilligan Cut to a scene containing exactly that, with one of the characters quite obviously turning a soft drink cup to face the camera. | |

Bennett the Sage has done these as occasional gags in his anime review series Anime Abandon: At the end of a gory scene in the "Genocyber Part I" reviewnote in which a scientist wakes up to find that he's handcuffed to a bed and his torso has been flayed down to the skeleton, a "Not going anywhere? Grab a Snickers!" "ad" pops up. In the X review, he calls out a blatant scene where the main character drops down in front of a Coke billboard. While reviewing Burn Up!, Sage notices that one of the bit bad guys looks a lot like Wilford Brimley, which leads to an extended parody of Brimley’s memetic plugs for Liberty Medical. |

An issue of Deadpool set in 1970s (thus fitting with the original ads) had him distract a mugger in this manner with bottles of "Party Time Fruit Liquor". ("It's refreshing, and delicious, and allows me to talk to women.") As the mugger is distracted, Deadpool apprehends the mugger and prepares to turn him over to the authorities. Then he remembers that he's on a strict time limit to finish another job and simply kills him instead. | |

El Bananero: His most famous videos and the reason he becomes a referent for Latin American youtubers is thanks to his Infomercials that parody existing products, as well creating new ones, all of them with the "call now" placement. Some of his most famous "products" are Sofa-natico, Kit MacGyver, Gas-T-Rico and Gaytorade. The most notable case of Continuity Nod about the above is Muñeca System, an inflated sex doll that can do a lot of things apart of being just a sex doll which Infomercial became El Bananero's first success. Well, with the time, Muñeca System became his girlfriend (a Yandere one, by the way) and appeared in a lot of videos and even has a dedicated Halloween Episode as the Fetishized Abuser. He also made his own beer, Cerveza Melorto ("Beer Metheasshole"), with a proper ads with an Ode to Intoxication (parody of Argentinian beer ads that use this resource). |
