A form of Product Placement (and a specific type of Enforced Plug) where something of importance will be named after a sponsor. Often, this practice results in some pretty awkward names for things and making the announcers sound like characters in a commercial.
Common examples include sports highlight footage or recurring segments. Sponsors will sometimes try to work their slogan or a pun into the name, making the name even more awkward. You can see unusual executive-induced naming patterns in anything from trophies to arenas. Sometimes, the event or show itself will be sporting the name of a corporation, but in those cases, people usually drop the sponsor's name in casual conversation.

The final season of Woolery Lingo had the bonus round sponsored by Kellogg's Raisin Bran Crunch. The Engvall Lingo not only had mystery balls sponsored by Progressive insurance, but they also gave contestants a bonus letter in the first word of the bonus round.

Catch 21's first season was sponsored by Kraft Real Mayo. From time to time, the power chips in the end game were renamed "Burger King Power Chips".

Each episode of The Dana Carvey Show had a different sponsor, and integrated the sponsor into the show's title; for example, the first two episodes were The Taco Bell Dana Carvey Show and The Mug Root Beer Dana Carvey Show. This was done as an homage to the shows mentioned above. This got him into trouble as Taco Bell pulled their sponsorship after Dana Carvey interrupted one of their commercials to mock it and started off one show with a skit about a lactating Bill Clinton which was seen as "too much for something three minutes after Home Improvement".

WWE's programs feature sponsored "Slam of the Night" ("Smack of the Night" on SmackDown) and "Rewind" segments that occasionally change names depending on who's sponsoring them (for example, the "Snickers Cruncher Crunch of the Night" when said candy bar was introduced). Around the time the 1999 B-movie Bats was coming out, they had the "Bat-Ass of the Week", which made no sense at all.

Last Comic Standing had at least one season where the contestant with the most viewer votes would automatically advance to the next round or, in the host's words, get a "Capital One No Hassle Pass".

Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! parodied this mercilessly in the "Jim & Derrick" episode, a parody of the likes of MTV and extreme sports which featured the VistaFresh Mobile Viral Clip of the Week and numerous other segments sponsored by Turbo Fuel Maximum Energy Soda. Well, except for the Turbo Fuel promotion sponsored by Tordo's Xtreeme Flavor Dust.

While retroactively known as The Jack Benny Program, the show was known on radio as The Canada Dry Program, The Chevrolet Program, The General Tire Revue, The Jell-O Program, The Grape-Nuts Flakes Program and of course, The Lucky Strike Program.

When Stephen Colbert decided to run for the 2008 presidential campaign, The Colbert Report promoted that it was sponsored by Doritos, and dubbed it the Hail to the Cheese, Nacho Cheese Doritos 2008 Presidential Campaign. However, after realizing that their sponsorship may be considered illegal campaign contributions, he subtly changed it to The Stephen Colbert, Hail to the Cheese, Nacho Cheese Doritos 2008 Presidential Campaign Coverage.

The 2009 version of The Newlywed Game obviously has the most of these. The first season's bonus question was sponsored by eHarmony.com. There have been questions sponsored such companies as Miracle Whip, Ashley Furniture Homestores, and Macy's. Not to mention a week sponsored by Cost Plus World Market, shows where winners also got a Toshiba camcorder, and dare I say, the Reeds In The Lead Round?
