# Stock Photo Spotting
Watching this week's Monk, I yelled at the telly when they used a stock photo which stuck out like a sore thumb.

What was amazing, was that almost the same stock photo was then used in this week's episode of Fringe. Ho Ho. I lightened (yes there is a t missing in the caption) the Fringe one beacuse it was very dark when it was on my screen. SEE:

Stock Image Fun

Yes, I'm a twatting nerd for even spotting this, let alone mentioning it. Leave me alone.

# I'm sure some trolls will be along shortly to tell you to fuck off or something
But I rather like these little insights into TV secrets. Please keep up the good work, and send my love to Uncle Jack.

edit: needs more "t" in "lighened"

# Wow ... er ...
Next you'll be telling me that television programmes are commissioned for ratings not artistic content.

I didn't say I thought it was an atrocity that these shows were using stock photography, I merely thought it was a nice coincidence they were using the same (albeit slightly different) stock shots in the same week.

# It's not that uncommon
when you've watched as much bad TV and movies as I have you often see the same stock footage popping up all over the place

Is this my first post? Cripes.
I'm sure I'd posted here before. I know I have...how odd.
Last time I was going to post something I did, I found someone here had posted it already, so I didn't have to.

And blergh to all the whingers. This isn't badly shopped pr0n or any of the recent trollcrap so a big ol' NER as well.

A good observation and very interesting it is too.
