Family Law premiers tonight on CBS. I just saw the beginning and there is a Prius in it! It not only is in the beginning of the show but it gets smashed in the opening sequence.<br><br>It's 100% sure it's a Prius, the car is shown very briefly on the left side and there's the vent and then also from the inside and the obvious gear shift is there.

"but it gets smashed in the<br> opening sequence."<br><br>Was it in a crash? If so, how well did it fare? :-)

It gets hit at high speed in the side. You don't see the car again after that. However the driver is walking around in a neck brace! :)

I got most of it on videotape. I'll post some stills in the Photos area soon. Could this be Prius' first appearance in a dramatic role (in a silly TV show)?<br><br>- Peter

I wonder if this is one of the pre-production models that the studio bought at a discount.

I've added a "Prius on Family Law TV show" album to the Photo section of this site.<br><br>Enjoy!<br><br>- Peter<br><br>P.S.: No, the Prius doesn't actually get squished. It's all in the editing.

Thanks!<br>Wonder if they added "real" car sound effects?<br>Squealing wheels?<br>Didn't it explode? ALL cars ecplode on TV!<br>:-)<br>Bill Powell<br>(and... you can take it from here)

Anyone do a lookup on the Prius license plate?<br>The vid cap is almost clear enough - perhaps the original scam is clear?<br>Bill Powell<br>(What committee made the decision to put the "C" key next to the "X" key? Or the T next to Y and O or the A next to S?)
