Thanks. Pity it doesn't pay though I could use a job.

Your first one made me thing of Fight Club were they actually did insert a single frame of a cock.
Lots of filmakers insert the occasional one or two frame shots of odd little images - particularly in animation. It's not always nudity either. Any strange or unrelated image can get used in this way.
The original idea was that the image would be seen and processed subconsiously while not being noticed by the conscious mind. There were experiments using the technique for advertising on the theory that people would see the advert and act on it without realizing they had been manipulated. Later studies have shown that the whole subliminal advertising thing doesn't work so now it just happens because filmakers think it's a giggle.

How 'bout like the Wizard of Oz and Pink Floyd...

If you Start Pink Floyd the Dark Side of the Moon at the same time as the pilot episode. The PF music follows along exactly.

Here's a strange and creepifying one that sometimes appears with the release of other movies...
In River's Reaver fight scene, one of the stuntment actually got caught in the throat with her axe. Although the axe is mostly harmless silicone, she swung it with such force the core of it inflicted a debilitating wound to the larnyx and the stuntman can't speak to this day. And here's the creepifying part...because the shot was soooo good they kept it and if you look closely you can see it in the movie.
To make it even more plausible, make up a realistic sounding but totally fictitious name (one that doesn't appear in the credits) of the stuntman. If someone asks why he doesn't appear in the credits say it is because of ongoing litigation.

Supposedly...I'm just passing this on, you understand, but supposedly Joss got the CGI team to create images that can be seen in Serenity's exhaust. The pilot episode shows them best, an image of Buffy if I'm not mistaken. Also, when Jayne says "let's moon 'em", part of the exhaust definately looks someone's (Nathan's?) backside.
I understand he did the same thing in the movie, but I'm not sure what the images are.

I could see a really successful urban legend get launched from the kiss between Inara and that female ambassador... We could start a fake "boycott Fox" campaign in which we all complain about all the lesbian sex in the show and how we're so offended. That would sell so many box sets. Seriously, wouldn't that work?

Well I'm surprised no one's mentioned using the fruity oaty bars scene. Where a vewier watched it, got mesmerized and was compelled to do something. What I dunno. Maybe a battered wife who saw the film at a friends and after seeing that one clip went home straight away and kicked the ass of her beating husband.
Or it just made people hungry for fruity oaty bars.
If I'm a bitch, then life just got interesting

LOL! That's a great one. We need to all claim to be "concerned parents" who are worried about the corruption of our teenaged sons.

We got a good one staring us right in the face so to speak-and it's true-Nathan's backside. Swirled over by dust by SciFi and obscured by the computery special effect later as he walks up the ramp. What conspiracy is this?-depriving the heterosexual women of the world a nice rump roast.
Combined with the s and f word in Chinese, Zoe and Wash in their bunk, Jayne,Kaylee and Simon, Inara's lesbian scene for the guys and lesbians (what part of "I'll be in my bunk" don't you understand?)and River naked in a box, and VIOLENCE AND TORTURE it covers just about everything.
AND THIS GREAT ALL INCLUSIVE SHOW WAS CANCELLED BY FOX!
The sales should skyrocket.
