A lottery here called Lotto 649 has a commercial that was aired this year.

At 0:02 seconds, you see the flames on the grill. At 0:07, there is an ivory kettle in the background by the SUV on the left.

Apparently these white kettles are extremely common ;)

This JUST came on the screen 10min ago on a show called "House Hunters International" and was about a Canadian couple that moved to a home in the UK.... check out the old school MT thermo! Couldn't believe it!

I know I'm really late to this party, but I find an awful lot of webers in commercials and movies. too many to list, but a newer one is the progressive ins spot where the campers take on the boaters. the female camper is holding what can only be a red weber kettle(sj or jj).

This beautiful redhead makes several appearances throughout the 1988 movie "Earth Girls are Easy".





Jim Carrey & Damon Wayans like it!

Just saw this today in a One A Day Vitamin commercial.

Okay, this was a major geek moment for me.  I noticed a Weber kettle in an episode of the Goldbergs "The Darryl Dawkins Dance" and it appears that the kettle is too new for when the episode was to have taken place.  Here's where the geek moment comes in.  In the episode Adam and his grandfather go to see the Transformers movie where Optimus Prime dies.  I looked it up and the movie came out in 1986.

Here's the scene where I saw the Weber Kettle in the background.



That's clearly an bucket style ash catcher in the background.  I've been trying to find the history of the 80's grills on the site, but I can't for the life of me verify that this didn't exist in 1986.  Although I'm pretty sure it didn't.   I got a ton of crap from my family just for even noticing.  I'm sure you can all relate.  Regardless, I'm sure you guys can tell me for sure.  Post back and let me know so I can at least feel vindicated.

Thanks!

Little Nicky starring Adam Sandler.

Even "Jimmie" needed more than one kettle.  A couple blackies in the backyard.

One of my favourite movies ... Pulp Fiction.  @2h 9min.

"Mr. Wolf" talking to "Jules" and "Vincent" just before he hoses them down.

Watch the episode of Adam-12, season 3 (1970), episode 7 titled: "Have a nice weekend" At the 18:40 and 20:40 mark, there is a vintage patent pending, black 26'er WITH the vintage Weber work table attached to it. It's on instant view on Netflix. 
This is the original Weber kettle. The most powerful bbq grill in the world and can blow your taste-buds clean off! So, you have to ask yourself one question: "Do you feel hungry? Well, do you punk?"
