Anyone else see the commercial for Community on NBC.

I know that people constantly complain that tv shows give us paintballers a bad rep and crap like that, but it actually looks like they did a good job. I've given up on TV shows showing the proper protection years ago, so the fact that they made it look fun is awesome in my book. I'm digg'n the neon TPX's, and of course the Spanish teachers gold ones also.

Here's a link to the commercial.

sweet. I watch community every time it comes up on hulu, looking forward to this one. :bounce:

as far as safety go's, I bet that they are faking the paintball shots anyhow. there was a movie crew that came to my local field for a splat movie, and they didn't shoot any paintballs it all gets added in later...

It looked like someone hit them with a paint brush, and the paint was more of a pastel color from what I saw. I liked the two balls colliding in mid air though, plus they looked like legit paintballs.

There is a short shot of Senor Cheng carrying a PB marker with picatinny rails and a hopper that might be a rotor. Can anyone guess what that marker might be?

Looked like either a Salvo or TM-15. With the TPX Pistols I would guess its a Salvo though.
