While rewatching an old episode of Parks & Recreation, we couldn’t help but laugh when a background prop looked exactly like our card-catalog-turned-spice-and-spoon-rack sitting behind Amy Poehler. The irony was even greater because the episode centers on her character’s outspoken dislike of libraries.
Doesn’t it look like the $5 thrift-store find Sherry gave me two Valentine’s Days ago? (I wrote more about that find in a previous post.)

That sighting got us thinking: have you ever recognized something from your home on TV? Maybe your go-to stapler turned up on The Office, your Ikea curtains appeared on a fashion competition, or a souvenir magnet from a road trip showed up on a sitcom fridge. Share your “as-seen-on-TV” moments and tell us what household item you spotted on screen.
