Deadliest Advert

Ok so I know television stations and programs make money through advertisers, but this is kinda getting ridiculous. As I was watching Deadliest Catch this evening, I noticed some very peculiar embedded advertisements.

First off on the Dutch Harbor map, down in the corner, a Lexus logo. Seems a bit strange to have a logo of such a "refined" automobile on such a show as Deadliest Catch.

And then, low and behold, guess whose sponsoring the Crab Count, well its none other than Yellow Book. Ahh it reminds me of all the sponsored tickers and scoreboards you always see on NFL coverage, only not done nearly as well.
