Buy Me That! A Kids' Survival Guide to TV Advertising and Buy Me That Too

In the late 80s, Fyfe starred as himself in the Buy Me That! series. The specials teach children about the ways commercials can be manipulative, for example making products appear better in commercials than they are in real life, or by using product placement.
