Talk:Product Recall

message: I removed references in the synopsis stating that the watermark showed Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. I think it was intended for the two animals to just be generic cartoon characters.  Locdog 22:12, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it's pretty clear the reference was intended to suggest Donald and Mickey, but the images were changed to generic cartoons for the same legal reasons that compel shows to replace brand name sodas with red-and-white-swirl generic "cola" cans. That said, unless there is a quote from a writer or producer that can be cited, the implied connection probably doesn't belong in the article, but I am going to try to reword it to better reflect the context.Aoystreck (talk) 23:30, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

message: Although I understand what that picture has to do with the episode, it's pretty crude ... I'm sure there's a better pic that can be used?
It basically is the topic of the whole episode and it is censored already so it is fine.
:The topic of the episode is damage control, not the damage itself. And censored != fine. -- Raymondc0 12:24, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've uploaded my own screenshot of the watermark. In my opinion it is indeed relevant to this article. Raymondc0, I suggest you read WP:CENSOR. --Luinfana (talk) 01:43, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

message: I am going through several articles and changing instances of "Dunder-Mifflin" to "Dunder Mifflin" (no hyphen) as it is the proper "spelling" of the company name (see Talk page at Dunder Mifflin). Just leaving a note to say that I've gone through this page. :) Fieryrogue 17:04, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm not so convinced to the reference when Kevin says "Alligator, dingo baby". I think a more plausible explanation is that Kevin is simply mimicking a stereotypical Australian nature show host's mannerisms. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.192.234.18 (talk • contribs) 
:I agree. I have removed this reference for the time being. There is no unique connection to the Azaria incident; the former explaination is far more convincing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.96.7.12 (talk • contribs) 
:I disagree.  Dingos eating babies are a stock Australian stereotype go-to for American television (and other media, too), right up there with crocodiles and shrimp on the barbie.  Just look at the references in popular media section (or whatever it's called) in the Azaria Chamberlain article; 80% of them are from the US.  They just can't get enough dingos eating babies.  That said, I don't know that it's noteworthy enough to go into the article; I leave that up to you all. 138.69.160.1 15:49, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There was no mention of dingos 'eating' babies, but rather "alligator, dingo baby", which again to me sounds a lot more like a mockery of the narration of nature shows, such as the ones Steve Irwin hosted. 18.96.7.12 07:16, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

message: the sidebar which says that this episode is the 20th is not consistant with the first sentance saying that its the 21st episode.  the episode is actually the 21st
:Yeah, that's been an issue with all the episodes. Needs to be cleared up. If you can help, be WP:BOLD. Enigma msg! 15:17, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

message: The current wiki page lists "product placement" as the twenty first episode of the third season. Which is very clearly incorrect according to Netflix which has it listed as the twentieth episode of the third season. CPTK00terPNCH (talk) 03:44, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
