Chess on TV Ad

Thanks trysts for posting it.
First time I've seen it after you posted it, eddiewsox. Very funny

Click the pause button when the large screen behind the players becomes visible - White has 2 LS Bishops - Doh!
I'm always amazed at how sloppy chess is portrayed on TV and in films.

nice call

@ Trysts - I remember an episode of "Monk" which featured the show's obsessive/compulsive detective investigating a fictional chess Grandmaster (apparently the best in the world). They of course end up playing a game .... The Grandmaster sits at the board with the White pieces, glares at Monk and says "your move" - Doh!

Hilarious!
Have you seen the Geico ad asking "Can you make chess on TV interesting?" using the "famous" Spanish speaking soccer(football) announcer? It's pretty funny.
