TV shows using Macs, must post scene shots

Joss Whedon's latest epic uses iPhones.

"Dr. Horribles Sing-along Blog"

It has Neil Patrick Harris (aka Barney from How I met your Mother) and Nathan Fillion (aka Mal from Firefly)

If you haven't heard of this, I strongly recommend you at least look it up on Google.

It's because they don't have permission.

If they were showing it, it would probably be Apple paying them, and not vice versa.

Advertising, you see;)

AFAIK, no one needs rights or needs to pay anyone anything to show Apple's logo on a TV show. It's quite common for companies to pay to have their products in shows (product placement). But the reason that you'll see logos covered up is because the producers don't want to give free advertising to Apple.

Not a TV show, but a movie with lots of Macs (Sydney White).

The last photo is, of course, the poison apple.

Why do people keep posting about the "mad" Apple logo on the older books.

They were right way up when it was shut, upside-down when open.

It's just upside-down, its not turned purple and warped into another dimension like some are exclaiming like it is.

If you're taking the piss out of something, get your spelling right first.

Anyway, as my MacBook is in front of me, shut, the logo is the wrong way up. How positively mad...
 
Some more from Friends:

Movie, not TV, I remember watching this in Theatres back in the day, still a great scene dealt with "transparent aluminum":
