anybody else appalled by the new colonel sanders?
I remember the real colonel. sad to see him converted into buffoon.
:( |
Oh thank you for posting this! It made me sick the first few times I saw those ads. They are creepy as fuck and I can't tell if it's like Darryl Hammond from SNL doing a 'comedy' thing or just bad acting. Either way it's disturbing as fuck.
(Almost as bad as that Old Spice commercial with the moms not letting their sons go....LOL) |
is that Darrell Hammond?
|
Seems odd to me to re-create a real person like they are.
The new one isn't funny, or poignant, or even reminiscent of the original. No clue what the hell their intention is. Sure doesn't make me want chicken. |
Count me in.
|
I love Darrell Hammond but his portrayal is bad. He sounds like Dr. Evil attempting, and failing, at a southern accent, which is stunning considering how talented he is.
He should have gone full-on Foghorn Leghorn, I say, I say. |
the 1st time i saw the ad i literally blurted out "what a phony!"
we've been getting our fried chicken down at Von's these days anyway. they make a tasty bird and it's $6.99 for 7 pieces. on sale it's $5.99 |
All they're missing is some blacks in the background with nothing on but jean coveralls and a piece of straw hanging out of their mouths doing a little jig around a watermelon. Creepy ad.
|
it's just creepy
|
Christ that's bad. What's next, auditions for a new 'Dave' at Wendy's?
Haven't had Colonel Clucks in a couple of years now. Believe it or not SAFEWAY has some pretty great fried chicky. 9 pieces for $9 bucks when on sale. And they're not skrawny pieces like KFC. |
L-Pink is good peoples
|
Fuck that cracker! I buy my fried chicken from genuine negroes!

This doesn't even register on my radar.
I cannot even remember the last time I had KFC. Their food sucks and I've always wondered how they've managed to stay in business. Popeyes or bust. |
Black people know their bird. If you are in a new place and don't know where to get the best fried chicken, just ask a black person. He will set you straight.

He's like most sequels never as good as the original. :2 cents:

We fucking hate that commercial. It's just horrible.
On a side note...I actually met the REAL Col. Sanders! It was in the late 1960's, my dad took me to Ft. Hesterly Armory in Tampa, Fla. to see Dory Funk Jr. win the NWA World title that night. After the matches we stopped at a restaurant to have something to eat...and Col. Sanders walked in! Everybody was getting his autograph and I ran over and he shook my hand. It was kinda cool. :) But this new commercial is just fucking horrible. The real Col. Sanders was nothing like the horrible version they are portraying now. And I don't think it's helping their brand at all. |

I don't eat fast food really....
Yesterday afternoon I was out of town when my wife's truck broke down and... With all of the traveling I suddenly discovered I hadn't eaten in hours and I was starved. She broke down at a Del Taco so.... I had my first fast food in like nine months - two chicken tacos. Wasn't half bad. |

I bet you regretted it a few hours later. :D |

imagen Best fried chicken I've ever had. This guy is a legend in NYC and he does it the old-fashioned way - in a customized iron skillet. The rest of his Southern food is great too. $15 - all you can eat! Just down the street from Rucker Park and just across the bridge from Yankee Stadium. Charles? Country Pan Fried Chicken - Southern - Harlem - New York, NY - Reviews - Photos - Menu - Yelp |
The commercials are kinda lame, nobody can replace the original
|
I'm not a KFC fan, but hope they are receiving backlash. They took one of the cooler, respected "real" fast food pioneers and turned him into an ass. Maybe they figure 'Merica is just retarded, doesn't remember the real Colonel (or both), and that another clown will help their bottom line.

What do you expect when your core audience is black? You have to talk to your audience like a stupid child.
"Oooo wee got cheeken jus like mammy usta make. Common down bos and try ma cheecken. Ooo weee." This would be proceeded by col sanders spitting watermelon seeds and half naked white girls dancing in the back to subliminally draw them in. |
Appalled? It a fucking chicken advert.
Or are you devistated when you eat the last cookie? Is it catastrophic when you run out of toothpaste? |
Times like these make me happy to be a vegan
|
Are you freaking kidding me?
That looked more like a SNL skit! |
They might be doing something right, they have got people to talk about the ad...

Not to worry. KFC will soon be sued over the white suit that he is wearing as it is proof of the white mans attempt to dominate the slaves.
|
For most people, the new Colonel Sanders ranks at about 10,000 on the list of shit they care about. They probably think more about why the word Colonel is spelled like that.
|
Hammond sounds like he just took a hit of nitrous and someone is twisting his sphincter at the same time.
KFC is not for me anymore. No thanks to green meat and pink slime. |
YES I really thought I maybe the only one that thought like that! IT sucks and a slap to the original COL. Sanders.
|
The only places that kfc still does well is truck stops and small towns without options. If they are the only game around for a few miles they do fine but if there are other options, blacks and whites skip them.
|
|
I try to not be appalled by such trivial matters ...
|
KFC is like the MCD of chicken... prefer Church's or Popeye's
|
I'm appalled that people still eat that KFC shit!
|
Anybody ever try Pioneer or Jim Dandy Fried Chicken? :thumbsup
|

And yet there are KFC's all over town. And they do quite well. Matter of fact, I grab the $5 fill up deal for lunch sometimes. Couple of pieces of chicken, mashed potatoes, cookie, and a coke for 5 bucks is a pretty good deal for lunch. :) |

You talking about Pioneer CHicken in LA? That was my all time favorite. Most locations got bought out by Popeyes in the early '90s. But a handful of independent locations still existed. The one on Sunset recently closed down and reopened as a Del Taco unfortunately. And the one in the mid-Wilshire district is FAKE, they do not use the original recipe. The only one I know still in existence is near Downtown LA. I never had Jim Dandy but I remember the name. |
It doesn't surprise me at all. Yum inc who owns the KFC brand has run every single franchise it bought into the ground. They destroyed Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, KFC, A&W and Long John Silver. All were thriving businesses until Yum bought them.

Hehe here in the ghetto where I live - excuse me, I mean el barrio - we've got Kennedy Fried Chicken. You know, the cheap KFC knock-off. Always dirty as fuck, greasy-looking and packed with people.
