OMG:eek2: I want your MINI's autograph!!!!!!!!! What is your Mini's screen name??? :grin: :wink:

Ok, heres the update: MINI on my soap, The Young And The Restless, a MINI was crashed on Friday (cliffhanger friday), 2 women in it. They purposely struck a person, then veered off the road and hit a tree. Occupants will survive....guy they hit....maybe not.....gotta drag it out for the drama factor...air bags deployed, front slightly scrunched...my eyes, my eyes...POOR SWEET MINI!!!!!!!!!!!:grin:

watching the price is right as I'm typing this and they actually just gave away a 2011 hot chocolate cooper as part of one of the showcase showdowns. AND the woman passed it. CLEARLY she doesn't realize what she just gave up...

Wow, both!! SWEEEEET:thumbsup:

Ya know, when Bob was there, he had a strict policy of NEVER featuring foreign cars...

In the series finale of "Guiding Light" (the greatest soap opera ever) two years ago, James Spaulding picked up Ashley and Daisy in his MINI cabrio.

Also, on the "Big Love" series finale a few months ago, Barb traded in her banged up station wagon for a gorgeous blue MINI S convertible. In one scene, Barb took the 2 other wives ("Big Love" followed the lives of a fictional polygamist family) out for a spin through the Utah countryside.

I love to see MINIs on TV shows or in the movies!!

PS I didn't know that Bob B. had that policy about foreign cars on TPIR. You learn something new every day.

Despite the thread title, I think this is a duplicate of an existing thread.

Tonight on NCIS the bad guy gets shot and falls five stories and lands on a car that is parked next to a MINI, sure glad they had him fall on a Tarus and not the MINI...

sevs753 May 17, 2011 07:48 PM

I'm surprised no one has mentioned it. In Scrubs, Turk and Carla drive a MCS convertible (R52).

maxmini May 17, 2011 08:18 PM

I worked on Charmed for a few seasons and in one episode the story line had Alyssa changing flat on her Cooper S. On the day they were to shoot the scene they could not find the " spare " . They knew I had a mini and asked what was up ? I told them about the run flats and they had to rush out and get a space saver spare from the dealer to do the scene .

I saw that too. I told my wife good thing he didn't hurt the MINI.

joyce2306 May 23, 2011 03:08 PM

I saw the pepper white mini too - just like mine! Let's hope the mini is okay as well as Tucker!

Ooooh, you drive a MINI AND you are a Y&R fan?? Be my friend :grin: !!!

Not sure if Tucker is really a good guy...I mean he DID :eek2: sleep with Diane!! Oh, the drama!!

joyce2306 May 23, 2011 03:33 PM

Yes, I am! I DVR it too, so I can not only speed through the commercials, but also the story lines I don't like very much. I think Tucker really loves Ashley, but you know that can turn on a dime in Soap Opera World! :confused:
Let's hope the Mini and Tucker are both restored!

GigglesMcMini May 23, 2011 04:04 PM

AWESOME!!!! Would it be ok if I add you to my "buddy list"?

I DVR it also, as I am at work when it airs. Definitly my fave. Also watch The Bold And The Beautiful.

2010 HzB/Clubman, fairly loaded, much loved:grin:
