French P.I.

I saw a commercial on tv this afternoon for PetMeds; PetMeds is a mail-order prescription service for your pets. During a monologue from Betty White, you see her holding a box from PetMeds in her arms as her golden retriever licks the package--he's apparently excited for the delivery. After researching the matter, I found some unsettling truths.

Following the commercial shoot at White's home, the dog was found dead in the backyard with the package from PetMeds next to him; he had committed suicide by overdosing. Further investigation showed that White had been playing looped episodes of Golden Girls for her pets during the day while she was out working.

Fortunately for White's golden, dog heaven shows episodes of Empty Nest only.
