Rubik's Cube sightings in media

In the Netherlands there was a commercial of a chicken solving the cube, and then they picked the chicken up and said: only the best chickens are good enough for the burger king. I think that is good publicity!!!!
 
I was watching Mythbusters a few weeks ago, and they were doing a test on a lot of people. They had some footage of people in the waiting room, and I think one of them was cubing. :eek:

New series of Mythbusters on an episode that just finished 5 minutes ago, on the part where they did the no pain no gain myth, whilst all of the test subjects were waiting, there was some guy playing with a 3x3.

Lol.
 
I was watching sportscenter this morning (20 minutes ago), and they were showing the top plays. #3 was a You Can Do the Cube competition. The first shot was a close up of the cube being solved. It looked a lot like Faz's 8.54 avg video, but I wondered why it was there. They zoomed out and it showed a bunch of kids solving it (really slow). Of course, the broadcasters says jokes like "I've never finished mine", "The cube is back this year", etc. I was wondering why it was in the TOP plays. I expected there to be a really fast solve (sub 15) that made it on the list. There were none. The competition itself was enough to be #3 somehow.
 
I was watching that show "That's Incredible" last night and I saw a segmant that had a blind lady solving a 3x3. Her best time was under 5 minutes.
Not bad at all in my opinion, I mean for being totally blind....I think its pretty cool that even she can solve the cube.
 
last week i was watching this show called the IT Crowd,
on a shelf behind moss's desk there was a rubik's clock...
excited i pointed it out to my wife...
she did not see the find quite as cool as i did

I saw a cube in Simpsons that i missed before: It's from season 21 episode 18 when Marge is looking for drugs in Bart's drawer.

In Denmark there's a commercial from "Telenor" for "the better & faster mobile network"
The speaker says "bla bla.. The better & faster network. That means, that it's faster, easier and... bla bla"
As the speaker says "faster" - there's a clip of someone turning af rubik's cube.

It's at 0:09 - the danish word for faster is "hurtigere" :)
