]]> I just finished watching Monday night’s episode of CSI:Miami and writing a review on the CSI:Fanatic website. At the end of the episode I noticed a little advertisement for “Microsoft presents the Stu Osborn Show”.

I had no idea what it was, so push the link and followed it to a little clip starring Fred Willard, who I’d just seen in A Mighty Wind.

The Stu Osborn Show is a spoof and Fred Willard plays an author who talks about business acumen and having spies, or “cultivate informants” in your workforce. He’s a big supporter of complicated advanced technology, which leads them to outsource.

The show is “sponsored” by Microsoft. Pretty funny advertising, but I don’t think this method will work on live TV as a commercial. Very nice try though.
