No, for the reason in my first post. @Shelbelle
Maybe , maybe not, my son has told me he has read otherwise, he is so curious to see if anything happens.

@Shelbelle Anyone can bring a lawsuit about anything. How far it gets is another matter.

Big had a bad heart. Remember the episode with Carrie as candystriper?

A new commercial gives Peloton some light hearted revenge , Mr Big talking to women and 2 Peloton bikes sitting behind them and he asks if they should go again , and he says yes ,life is too short . As Ryan Reynolds narrates commentary in a fast pace , and says HE'S ALIVE , quite ammusing. I think Peloton has gotten more publicity than they ever could without the show.

"SATC' fans, like me, are saddened by the news that Mr. Big dies of a heart attack," Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum, a member of Peloton's health and wellness advisory council and a preventative cardiologist told the LA Times. "Mr. Big lived what many would call an extravagant lifestyle — including cocktails, cigars, and big steaks — and was at serious risk as he had a previous cardiac event in Season 6."

"These lifestyle choices and perhaps even his family history, which often is a significant factor, were the likely cause of his death. Riding his Peloton Bike may have even helped delay his cardiac event," Steinbaum added.

Since the gyms are open again, Peloton's stock has dropped; doubtful it has much to do with HBO.

Precisely.

I use to love that show...... what killing off Mr. Big was a mistake and two, using a peloton bike to kill him was a dumb move on the writers part.

I just read they shot the commercial with Chris Noth in 48 hours after the show aired with Ryan Reynolds narrating. It is quite funny , i wonder how much they paid him.

I don't understand why they needed to use any brand name exercise equipment at all. If they used the word Peloton, wouldn't the show's production have to pay for that?

It's usually the opposite. The company pays production for the advertising. But it could also be the way you said.
