Gilmore Girls

Astute viewer Lynn W. spotted this Breyer Classic Black Stallion in the "Application Episode" of "The Gilmore Girls". Awesome!


LOL..."I Am The Biggest Horse in the WORLD!"

Thanks, Lynn!

Rescue Me

This show is one of my guilty pleasures, I don't even know if it's still on the air or not, I've been renting the DVDs from Netflix.

But you never know where horse shaped objects will show up, and I was tickled to spot these in the background of the boarding school daughter's room!

The rosettes were a dead giveaway, and of course she keeps her hunt cap on the empty chair (that's the bulimic roomie on the bed there)

Don't have a clue what horses they are, they don't look like any Breyers I can ID, not even the little ones. I'd think if her parents could afford to send her to a boarding school, they could afford real Breyers at the least!

(Season 5, "Play")

Breyers in the NBA

During the All Star game they had a "fun" little event, the Geico "H-O-R-S-E" game (instead of spelling "horse" with each basket, they spelled "Geico". How exciting that must have been.)

So you've got these multi-millionaires jumping around in their underwear, and what does the winning player win?

A Breyer!

He looks thrilled, doesn't he?

Now to you and me, that might be a worthy prize! But reading the comments on this blog about it, it's pretty funny!



I wonder if that's one of a kind packaging, or did they just slap some stickers on an existing box.

Thanks to the sharp eyes on Blab for this info!

Revolutionary Road

In the movie "Revolutionary Road" we find the Breyer Running Mare and the Little Bits Morgan on the dresser.

Never mind this film is set in the 1950's, and neither of those models existed at that time. Better they should have gone with the Western Horse!

Thanks to Sarah R. for her sharp eyesight!

Tide Commercial

This one has been eluding me for weeks, thanks to better hunters than I for tracking it down!!
This is a commercial for "Tide" laundry detergent, with an angst-filled pre-teen whinging about not getting the $100.00 jeans she wanted. But at least she has a couple of Breyers, which I'd rather have had than jeans at that age!
Above the bed she has a Breyer "Madison Avenue" National Show horse (considering how tippy that model is, I can see it falling on her head in the middle of the night!)


And on the dresser is the black and white pinto Spotted Saddle Horse/Clock Saddlebred!
Trust me, that's what it is!

Thanks to the scouts for finding these for us to enjoy!

America's Funniest Home Videos

This was pointed out to me on YouTube. I don't know what to worry about more... the fate of the Classic Arabian Mare, or that little girl doing permanent damage to her reproductive organs!! (She sits on the poor CAS...those pointy little ears...ouch!!)

Hoarders

In the December 28, 2009 episode of "Hoarders" that aired on A&E, the camera offers a quick shot of one of the hoarders' little horse collection!! This appears around 8 minutes into the show.


Looks like a Barbie horse (big white one), the palomino pinto looks like one of the Breyer Ponies or Dapples or whatever they call them. Next to that is the old Classic Arabian Stallion, and the black and white pinto "Pinto Sporthorse" on the Jet Run. Next to that, I can't guess.

Earlier in the show is a shot of a bedroom (I guess), and in the upper right corner you can spy part of some horse. Any guesses? Maybe a Marx or Barbie Horse, judging from the apparent size of it.


One of many "What A Slob These People Are" type shows that make me feel good about my housekeeping skills (such as they are, lol)

And "After" the clean-up, the horses are organized in the little girl's room:
Can't really tell what they are though, a lot of Barbie types and other Non-Breyer Horse Shaped Objects.
I imagine she inherited the Classic Arabian from her mom. That's my guess anyway.
