I like how they used an actual person,these things usually opt for cgi and end up looking creepy.
The women of New Vegas ask me a lot if there's a Mrs. New Vegas. Well, of course there is! You're her. And you're still just as perfect as the day we met.

I hate his voice.
This is my signature.

That's actually Darrell Hammond (former SNL cast member and current SNL announcer since Don Pardo's death last year) as the Colonel. I don't know what to think of the ads. I wonder if these ads will go for a long time, or if they'll only last for a short while, like the attempt by Orville Redenbacher to have an impersonator play Redenbacher himself.

I was going to mention Darrell Hammond but Caps beat me to it. I was less than impressed by the ads, but I like Darrell Hammond. He always did a really funny Bill Clinton.
You love this signature.

Jon Lovitz is good too. The women of New Vegas ask me a lot if there's a Mrs. New Vegas. Well, of course there is! You're her. And you're still just as perfect as the day we met.

They're appealing to nostalgia when they should be going back to what made KFC a good restaurant. I believe one of the mistakes they made like McDonald's is to put "Healthy" on the menu. No one goes to those places to eat healthy! It's fast convenient comfort food. Stop rationing the mashed potatoes and get back to bucket deals..

This video has sure gotten a lot of thumbs down on YouTube, even though there are more thumbs up. And I think the fact that this person imitated a dead man, especially a legend, has gotten to a lot of people.

He's been doing it for awhile, but Norm MacDonald now takes over as Colonel Sanders.
