NUMBERS RUNNING: THE LATEST CAPTCHAS

'Lost' may be gone from the airwaves, but "The Numbers" sequence lives on. Here are some recent additions to my collection of "The Numbers" to be found in other TV shows and commercials, past and present:

FOUR
From an Allstate blipvert featuring one of the best new TV characters, and a winner of a 2010 Toobits Award, Mayhem:

EIGHT & SIXTEEN
This was stock footage used in the 'Burke's Law' episode "Who Killed April?".......

SIXTEEN
It's not a clean frame grab, I got it from a YouTube copy of an advertisement, so it wasn't on screen long, but here's Dr. Temperance 'Bones' Brennan on the sixteenth floor of a building.

Also, it was used in a commercial for a Canon camera in which a young couple were given the chance to go back to Italy and recreate a photo that didn't come out right on their old camera:

TWENTY-THREE
That was the number of the building owned by Marsha Deakin in which Daisy Steiner and Tim Bisley lived, as seen in 'Spaced'......

BCnU!
