In this Nestle Crunch commercial, the frustration Bird feels at being distracted by the candy-bar-munching janitor is almost palpable. Or something. Bird's exaggerated reaction reminds me of how the late Johnny Carson once said that Chevy Chase "couldn't ad-lib a fart after a baked bean dinner."

ReplyDeleteAnybody else see the potential for a great Saturday Night Live skit based on this concept?

Walker had a sleepy look on his face. Really? At 5:39 AM!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteWho the hell is not sleepy at that time?
I mean, besides cops who earn their keep by pulling people over.
