Placebo

Hosted by Lou Dax and Yvonne Steven, Placebo heralds the launch of a miraculous new diet pill that "harnesses the power of the mind" to burn calories, melt fat and tone muscle. Inspired by the countless diet and fitness infomercials that litter the late night TV airwaves, Placebo is a computer-animated parody that wraps all the bogus science, empty promises and appalling social messages into a cheerful and festive program.
