Product placement? That's not commercials in between...and also isn't connected to how many advertisers they have. |

We have basically the same group of advertisers as last year's February Sweeps. I just checked one year ago today (Monday 2/9/15), and the only advertisers who had ads that day that haven't had an ad yet in 2016 are: General Mills (last ad, 11/18/15) McCormick (last ad, 12/24/15) Blue Buffalo (last ad, 12/29/15) So, there's been no big change in the past year with companies not buying ads anymore.

When was the last product placement and what was the product? Was it Midol? |

Up, as in total ad time? Yes, that did change, but only slightly in recent years. The second-half insert was removed and the theme cut in half so NBC could get an extra 30-second spot (or two 15-second spots) per episode. In 1997, "Days" episodes ran 40:11 and there were 18:00 of ads. Now, it's 37:14 and 20:57 of ads. So they've added 3 more minutes of ads in the past two decades.

OMG. I felt so much second-hand embarrassment for Camila during that scene. :drunk: |

I don't keep track of those. I remember the time the Cheerios ad had to be edited for US broadcast because of some health claims they made in the product placement. It aired the way it was taped in Canada, but the scene was altered in the US airing. Edited by Jason47, Feb 9 2016, 12:28 AM.

I thought they should do location shoots and advertise some beach bars, hotels or something (kidding 😜). |

Caroline did that frozen chinese food one, and I think Chelsea also did one for Midol. |

Here's the Cheerios ad. I remembered Bo and Hope were in the scene, but I forgot Bo offered Henderson some Cheerios too! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPuz8LpsGMw&index=6&list=PLbCS1aCA639FZFNOWHkMtJnInQGvFekhj |

I suspect it is not coincidental that Blue Buffalo's stopped advertising during Days right around the time that it settled a lawsuit over its false advertising of the contents of its dog foods (it also had a major recall right around the same time). As for the others, we can't really tell much from the number of advertisers without knowing how much they are charging for the ads. If NBC is cutting ad rates to keep advertisers happy, we may not notice a decrease in advertisers, but ad revenue might drop substantially. |

Arianna and Gabi had Midol. I think Abby and Paige did Midol as well. EJ and Sami had Chex Mix. Sami and Allie had a Nature Valley bar or something and the Allie actress forgot her line for that. :) Edited by Deverauxfan, Feb 9 2016, 12:55 AM.

Thanks Jason, but it doesn't show for me...It's a gray box that says "This plugin not supported." |

Did Camila do one too? Gabi Rodriguez (the first Gabi) did one with Lindsay Hartley... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2CuhtuwV2o&index=2&list=PLbCS1aCA639FZFNOWHkMtJnInQGvFekhj |

Yes, I'm about 95% sure she did. It was during the MarDar era, I believe -- sometime in 2012, perhaps? I think Abby was also in part of the scene. |

I suppose we'll never hear someone exclaim "Caroline, that was the best clam chowder I've ever eaten!" and Caroline replies "It's not mine. I've been serving Campbell's Chunky Clam Chowder for the past 3 years, well, with my mind going and all." |

Possibly. I could have sworn Camila did one too, though. I'm pretty sure she was in HTS, and she offered someone some Midol. My memory kinda stinks, so who knows what my brain has gotten mixed up. LOL. |
