For trademarks, don't they have to be "used as a trademark" to constitute infringement?  So when a TV show shoots someone wearing an original Nike T-shirt, the appearance of the Nike swoosh is not being "used" by the TV show as a trademark, in the sense of them having applied it to the DVD packaging or in the credits, but it simply showed up on a genuine Nike article.

I've personally seen the "Playpen" magazine in the new Fox tv show The Good Guys, and also the animated show Futurama. Of course that one was animated, but it still used the same name.

this same issue is in that 70's show season 3. the episode where the guys walk into a bar and find out hyde's dad is the bartender. also i've seen issues of playpen in family guy. the episode where peter runs for mayor or something and he gives chris a box full of girly mags and chris gives them to everyone at his school. except i've also noticed that in that episode they fucked up on one of the mags and it says playpan on it.
