E-Cig Spotting (TV)

[TamiP]

Just catching up on my "Deadliest Catch" episode from last week, the "Breaking Mandy" episode for anyone who is into DC) and that new cast member, the younger captain that brought his girlfriend along this trip, used to smoke up a storm in the cabin. For the first time, I just saw him using a cigalite type e-cig! Love seeing those random TV sightings. Bringing it more mainstream.

I saw a guy using something in last week's episode of The Bridge

Cool! And man, hubby is going to be mad he missed that (our DVR list is full for auto recording). I saw a character on the new series RUSH using one too a week ago, forgot about that one. (Didn't care that much for the pilot, so probably won't be watching it any more.)

I agree, it's good to see vaping go mainstream. Perhaps the more the general population see's it the less they'll fear it. One can dream.

That's exactly why it thrills me so to see it. Of course, I just like seeing it being so "out there" on TV, but I really like the fact that the exposure could help with how non-vapers see it since all they normally get is generally negativity from media outlets.

I saw him use an e-cig one episode last season too. Looked like an ego to me, but it could have been a cigalike.

I'm always excited to see vaping in mainstream TV and film.

He uses Blu cigalikes on the show all the time. Matt on the NOrthwestern is a huge vaper and even owns a vaping business but they never show him vaping. Maybe because he doesn't use cigalikes?

I haven't seen him using them before. Good to know. I also didn't know that about Matt. Good point on 'maybe because he doesn't use cigalikes like the ones BT sells-haha. Come to think of it, anytime I have seen e-cigs in any show it has been a cigalike type model. I just always figured it was because those are typically the kind people first pick up.
