Finder Spyder refers to a fake search engine shown on many programs on TV. Michael Keppler uses to find information about the victim (Roger Lapinsky) at the beginning of the episode. This was also seen in a CSI episode titled Time of Your Death. Also seen on pilot episode of Prison Break and in the NBC TV series "Journeyman".
It has been shown in "The Year Of The Rabbit", Dan Vasser is shown using it.
Probably This is Closest to a Finder Spyder in real world = google.com !

Report all scams here and search for already reported scams.
I think the Webcrawler search engine (with its spider mascot) might have been the inspiration here.
ReplyDeleteFinder-spyder is also used in the NBC TV series "Journeyman".
ReplyDeleteThey can just show Google instead. Like the name Finder Spyder better though ;)
ReplyDeleteI wish it did exist...I got fooled! I saw it last night on the show Dexter on Showtime about the serial Killer who works for the police. It is hard to take the the concept of the show at first but then you get addicted!Very well writen and great performances. Check it out.
ReplyDeleteI got fooled too. I saw it on "Dexter" last night and thought it looked great. If you have not checked that show out it is great... About a serial killer who works for the police as a blood spatter anaylist. It is on Showtime.
ReplyDeleteI just saw it on Without a Trace -- thought it was weird that it was the same thing on Journeyman.
ReplyDeleteFinder Spyder was also used by P.I. Mick St. John in the most recent episode of Moonlight on CBS although the site has a different look from the one used on Journeyman
ReplyDeleteI would assume its much like how television shows use Oceanic Airlines as seen in lost and some movies, instead of paying legal rights to use the name of a real company.
ReplyDeleteI got tricked last night watching Prison Break. Linc used it to look up a guy. I have been searching for my boyfriends family all over the net with no luck and had seen this site used on Journeyman and Dexter before now and thought gee it is used so much maybe it is real. Man was I depressed to find out it was fake.
ReplyDeleteIt was also on Prison break 3.10 with the adress finderspyder.com\google :-) but there is nothing to find (must be localhost entry :-( )
ReplyDeleteit wasn't finerspyder.com/google but /people lol !
ReplyDeleteIt was on AMC's "Breaking Bad" tonight. Walter's wife used it to look up the dude he's partners with.
ReplyDeleteyeah!it was definetely inspired by webcrawler!!no doubt about that!!!
ReplyDeleteFinder spyder also Was Used in Episode 01 of the AMC show "Breaking Bad" by the Professors wife when referencing a phone # or name (I believe)
ReplyDeleteThe Finder Spyder concept is nothing new, really. The phone companies have been doing it for years, with '555.'

ReplyDeleteI'm coming late to this party but...
ReplyDeleteIf they used one of the "real" search engines and showed it on-screen, it would count as "product placement" which networks charge BIG bucks for. So the Coke can or name brand beer you might actually see in a show cost the product company advertising dollars to have it seen.
You people must be really dumb to think something like that used in these TV shows is real, wow there TV shows for crying out load and then you even searched for it, you really need to get back to reality HA No0bz.
