Building a Lego House.
Should be available on BBC online player for a while.
Just a small 1-2 minute section, about 10 minutes into the program.
simpsons episode where they are in a LEGO world
Conan episode where a young 20something actor (name escapes me) talked about how he and his friends were going to get together to build a LEGO Death Star.
I saw that to.
They hit so many troll notes with that one, I had to laugh.
In Malcolm in the Middle there was an episode in which Dewey built a mega city using LEGO and other brands. At the end of the episode Lois falls and destroys Dewey's city. There are no minifigs, but you can recognize that part of the city is pure LEGO.
Here's the link to the destruction of the city.

The bean counters probably decided it was no longer "cool" to have a lego building character.
To be honest I have not watched any other episodes.
Other things to see at the same time.
Another NCIS episode had Mcgee explain to Gibbs how some criminals pulled off their robbery by recreating the scene with Lego.
What sorts themes are you wanting shows for, anyway? There are already ongoing TV series for Ninjago, Star Wars, and Nexo Knights, movies/specials for DC Super Heroes, Jurassic World, Scooby Doo, Mixels, and Elves, Netflix series for Bionicle and Friends (along with Elves moving to Netflix next year), and web animations for any number of themes. To be quite honest I'd say we're living in somewhat of a golden age for Lego media already.
I think it was in Peru or Colombia.
The taxi driver had it on his dash.
I always find it amazing that they use "Lego" and not "Legos" when making reference to the product.
(Or maybe I'm just accustomed to American English being awful and ridiculous.)
We would say "leggo", they would say "lay-go". We say it as a spondee, the Americans would say it as a trochee, if I remember my English lit classes correctly. Americans are much more likely to stress the first syllable of a word, generally speaking.
Listen to one of Jamie's designer videos, where a Brit would barely notice any difference, and compare it with a presentation given by Jørgen.
But I am not surprised the Danish say lay-go, as the name was made from two Danish words meaning play well?
