Radio host Mancow found a copy of Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum on CD and enjoyed it so much that he would recommend it to late night host Craig Ferguson, which would spark him to invite the band onto the show to perform.

Later on August 2, 2006, The Late, Late Show aired Tally Hall's performance of "Good Day". Tally Hall's music was also featured a lot on The O.C., a television drama airing on FOX at the time. "The Day After Tomorrow" featured Good Day, and "The Dream Lover" featured Hidden In The Sand. Their use on The O.C. would lead to their recording of The Killers' song [[Smile Like You Mean It]] for a compilation CD of artists featured on The O.C. covering other O.C. artists.

September 12th saw the re-release of Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum with more focused marketing behind it and a wider distribution plan. Due to this big marketing push, the band experienced much more success than before, being distributed into more stores and gaining national attention. Tally Hall would also appear in MTV's segment "You Hear It First."<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7oNUyzfQDr0 Tally Hall - MTV's You Hear it First. YouTube.]</ref>

New songs [[Misery Fell]], [[Turn The Lights Off]], and a retooling of All Of My Friends titled [[I'm Gonna Win]] would be played at concerts this year. Most of these would see release on Tally Hall's second album. Fan favorites [[At Least A Day]] and [[Time Machine]] were also played at shows early in the year, but seemingly were never considered for recording.
