Watch "White Collar" tonight... because our little ad is on it

Chalk one up for unabashed self-promotion: for our upcoming French Flea Market at Pomegranate this Saturday, Aug. 7, we're running a series of fun TV ads (don't yet have a copy of it to post here). Mostly you'll see it on HGTV, Food Network (starting tomorrow, on two of my favorite cooking shows: "Everyday Italian" with Giada, and Ina Garten's show [of course I can't remember the name right now, but trust me, it's good]).

We also slotted one lone spot into one of our favorite summer TV escapist series: "White Collar." I love this show. It's like a fun, easy book to read in a hammock. As with all the summer fare (year round TV, for that matter), you have to suspend belief a little bit: the plots/the cons/the twists are all a bit, hmmm, unrealistic? But entertaining, nevertheless. And the scenes of Manhattan are wonderful. I would watch it just for a glimpse of that glorious apartment the main character lives in. And isn't there something Cary Grantish about said main character?

Anyway, watch it, because it's a good show – and watch for our little ad. Tell us if you see it, because this whole experiment with TV is a little... ah, scary?
