    That old Tesla pulled me OUT of the Sci-Fi nature of the film. All that work creating the images of the future tech and then she drives HERSELF to the water? Today's beta FSD is Sci-Fi compared to that.

    One of the reasons we Angelinos use valets is so we don't have to park on the street, and there may not be any spots close to a popular spot on the street. The valet is safer and offers peace of mind. The valets themselves present some small risk, but you at least have a chance to see and meet them face-to-face.

    Quite a strange show, but I just watched the 7th and 8th episodes and there was a Model 3 parked in downtown and a Model S driven by the preacher in episode 8. *Spoilers*

    Just seen a Tesla Model 3 in This Is Us season 5 episode 9 “The Ride”... in two scenes... they’d dubbed the scenes over with ICE engine sound!

    A Model X is in several episodes of season 2 of His Dark Materials.

    In the Chinese TV series "You Are So Sweet", a classic Model S driven by the lead actor got a lot of screen time. Its first appearance is right at the beginning, and the car makes appearances in many of the episodes. Nice to see Tesla vehicles getting favorable exposure worldwide. (with English subtitles)

    How unrealistic it is to have a lead character drive a Tesla and NOT spend much of their on screen dialog talking to anyone who will listen about how great it is to own a Tesla. Sheesh. everyone knows that!
