I remember an episode of Everybody Hates Chris, can't remember the name or how to look it up, where Chris tries to fit in with the nerds, and they have a race of who solve a Rubik's cube the fastest. When one kid wins, some bully runs by and steals it, and chucks it at the kids head :fp It looked like a storebought, too. Stupid directors.

I think the episode is called Everybody Hates Being Cool.

My godfather is funny. He writes Packed to the Rafters and he put a Rubik's cube on top of the fridge in the show.

In the Dutch version of ‘the new Uri Geller’ a man is solving a 3x3 blindfolded without doing memorization. I found it pretty weird but I can’t figure out what he’s doing..

it starts around 50 minutes

Watched it. I think the girl is sending him signals with her hand. Team BLD. Nice trick.

In Germany, there's an advertisement for a toothbrush with a Rubik's Cube in it.
Apparently they got a white one, peeled the stickers off and put some blue sand in it. (Like your teeth are shaped in a cuboid and you have to brush your teeth to get blue sand out of them)
First they showed that normal toothbrushes just clean the outside (slice the middle layer a little bit and you see the blue sand still stick in there).
Use their toothbrush with partial longer brushes and all the sand is gone.

Sorry, no footage but I'll post the advert if I find it.

In iCarly, in their kitchen there is a giant Rubik's cube on a lower shelf next to the refrigerator.

I just saw on an episode of Everyone Hates Chris, Chris was talking about how he didn't fit in with any of the groups at school. It showed various groups, like the Jocks and stuff, and then it got to "the nerds", where some kids were competing with their Rubik's Cubes

ya i saw that, the cubes were like really big lol

Yes Darryl plays with a white one and I saw some bright blue stickers. That is in Back from Vacation (season 3 don't know the ep, I'm not that much of an Office freak). Michael also plays with one in Prince Family Paper in season 5, don't know the number ep again. Actually no he plays with it in another episode but it's on his desk very obviously in this ep.
