There are so many fun, fake products in movies and TV. Sometimes, they become so iconic that they become real products. There are a few examples of that on this list of fake products from movies and TV shows, but most of them are just things we fondly remember from our favorite films and shows. So here it is, our list of just some of the best products we could come up with.
Apollo Bars – Lost
One of the things Lost did really well was building a world beyond the island. Apollo Bars were part of that world. The chocolate bars were seen all throughout the season, including when Hurley raided the pantry in the hatch when it was first discovered.
Pulp Fiction is a perfect example. We first find out about the “new Hawaiian burger joint” when Jules (Samuel L. Jackson) tries Brad’s nutritious breakfast. It is a tasty burger! Eagle-eyed viewers may know that the brand was actually introduced in Reservoir Dogs when Mr. Blonde (Michael Madsen) is seen drinking from a cup from the fictional restaurant.
Amy Poehler) is appalled by their popularity, while Ron (Nick Offerman) is predictably less worried about how unhealthy they are.
Back To The Future Part II came out, it was filled with futuristic products, but by far the one kids most wanted to be real was the Hoverboards (from Mattel in the movie). We’re still waiting, decades later–and no, the “hoverboards” with the one wheel don’t count.
Arrested Development. Invented by George Bluth (Jeffrey Tambor), the product was recalled because it basically burned anyone who ever tried to use one, including Michael (Jason Bateman) multiple times in one episode. Getting Richard Simmons to help sell it in an infomercial was a bad idea, too.
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia has the solution for you. Kitten Mittons! Of course, your cat may not like them as much as you hope, so be careful!
suits at Brawndo, they pay a lot of money to sponsor basically everything you would use water for… except the toilet.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus) sure loves the tops of muffins. Personally, I like the whole muffin, but it seems enough people love the tops enough to make an entire bakery making only the tops of muffins in the world of Seinfeld. Just don’t expect the local food pantry to accept only the stumps.

toured the Harry Potter studio outside London. I’m honest, it’s way too sweet for Muggle consumption. At least this Muggle.
Opti-Grab – The Jerk
I’ve worn glasses for most of my life, but I’ve never had the need for anything like the Opti-Grab from The Jerk. Sure, it makes Nathan a very rich man (at least until it’s sued out of existence), so some people might be interested, but glasses can be awkward enough without having that weird thing you can pinch.
Strictland Propane – King Of The Hill
Strictland propane and propane products! The best money can buy!
