Totally, Ben.
Even I know "synergy" when I see it....
You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!

I think this may be more marketing than synergy. When American Idol contestants got a sneak peak at The Simpsons Movie that was synergy as FOX owns the network and the film studio. Does Paramount/DreamWorks have any relationship with the show or studio? I bet this was more a paid commercial than synergy between different divisions of a company.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I'll bet that it's part of the AI/Shrek deal that they have ongoing.
Sometimes, synergy can be exploited between two companies!

I had forgotten about the whole Faraway Idol thing! I guess there was a prior relationship.

Wanna here something ironic? Today Mcdonald's is starting a new toy, and guess what it is? Yup, "American Idol"!
No, its not the actual characters, but little microphones, and what appears to be a toy ipod, wonder what that does?
Now Vi is gonna hate Mc!

Nah, I like them! I have to admit I love McDonald's food.
(And they have ALSO a deal with DreamWorks, so...
)
So much synergy!!
