It’s still on YouTube, and it was Rick Moranis. Dead-on impersonation!

Memory plays tricks. I remembered the scroll as being very fast, to list every song ever written.

Sanders - Georgia Gold, Extra Crispy, Nashville Hot, and presumably Original Recipe.
They should have just stayed with an animated version.
pretty sure he is back, his voice at least, within a chimney. love norm on stern, great stuff
Today I saw the Pot Pie Col. Sanders

I hate all of the idiotic current chevrolet commercials.
All off them, but especially the over-produced, trigger-loaded ones. There was a Brick (furniture store) commercial going during the holidays, actually I think the G8d forsaken thing is still running but with new lyrics (to reflect post-christmas deals), and their audio engineer went full psychological assault with the rhythmic bell ringing- it was so reverbed, chorused and post-processed that you couldn't make out any single bell tone as they were all bleeding into each other at a very high volume- sure, effective to SEIZE BY FORCE the subconscious cognition of the entranced viewer, but it quickly became (more of) an offensive assault of the senses. So irritating.
Dr. Pepper commercial with the old vendor guy and the mini sweet Dr Pepper little person.
How about the Honda Pilot being tested in the snow showing it understeer 30 feet wide
and saying if it works here just think how it will work for you. Yeah across two lanes of traffic
into a fire hydrant.

Can't forget COCA COLA commercials. Pure cancer.

I loved K-Tel albums - great fun! Eleven songs per side - now that's quality!
The first ad of this genre I remember was c. 1968 - I was over at my friend's house in Regina, and we were watching TV (B&W of course) in the basement. These images of C&W singers would twirl in from the side and expand, stopping at a jaunty angle in the middle of the screen, while a song clip played. Meanwhile, a steady list of song titles and artists in white letters scrolled from bottom to top. For no good reason other than having way too much brain sludge, I remember that two of the song clips were 'Oh Stop the World and Let Me Off' followed immediately by 'Gotta Rhythm, Uh Huh, Uh Huh'. The later I discovered was Johnny Cash. We had no C&W music at home, so I'd never heard any of this stuff before.
A few years later my first album was a K-Tel 8-track - "22 Fantastic Hits" - which I played frequently in my ancient '62 Chevy II (194 inline-6 w/ PowerGlide, 10W-30.
