Should be a nice change from Kibbles and Bits though, Haggis.

You better check and see if there are any zombie bits at the bottom of the bag.

I didn't get it. The guy's dead. So what? It's not like they used his corpse for the commercial or anything... or did they?

For the non-US residents: There was an Orville and he used to do his own commercials years ago. The popcorn is still a big seller in the U.S. Joe is weirded out that they've made up an actor to look like him and portray him in a commercial. It's freaky how much this guy looks and sounds like old Orville.

Watch me pop...I can see it now, while Haggis is going for that last little tid-bit, from his bowl--POP goes the kernel :ROFL:

Fat chance. I ain't going near popcorn ever again.

And, Dama, if you're comfortable with dead guys selling you your popcorn, then more power to you.

I'm going to have such nightmares tonight.

Poor puppy. Drink some warm...pop...milk before you go to sleep. Should help :Hug2:

Finishing up the last of the six-pack as we speak. I figure, it can't hurt.

The guy's dead, Billy. Has been for some time.

I know, but ..

So?

Dead people can't be in commercials?

I bet the Americans With Disabilities Act would disagree.

Let's ask TV legends Ed Sullivan and Johnny Carson, broadcast pioneer Dave Garroway and Westinghouse spokeswoman and later consumer advocate Betty Furness.

So, what do you all think? Should dead people appear in TV commercials?

It's OK. Take all the time you need to think it over.
