I think I read somewhere that they picked up on how annoyed people were with how often they changed the Colonel and stuck with changing them every commercial as a low key middle finger.

Was that a thing. Whatever the case they succeeded cause I don't remember the commercials before but Norm as the colonel definitely is memorable

I liked the first one before Norm. I don't remember his name but he was perfect. some people thought he was creepy and I guess that's why they changed it. everyone else sucks though.

Exactly. 7-11 chicken is better.

Their commercials seem pointless to me - the main people who still go there just get huge family pack deals of buckets of chicken and sides. If you want cheap and pretty good fast food chicken in a regular meal portion, KFC isnt where you go.

when the ad campaign started people were upset about how creepy they made the Colonel look, so KFC made a new commercial where they changed actors and said "he's not the REAL one...I AM"....and the constant changing of Colonel's became the new gimmick in their ads.

Darrell Hammond for sure. I thought there was a third around the same time, but I might have been thinking Jim Gaffigan did SNL.

What's funny about the whole thing, is that the first Colonel was the best one.

Disagreed on McDonald's being the most depressing. It gets good business at least, so it doesn't feel as desolate as some of the other chains; Subway, White Castle & a couple others have always been more depressing imo.

You're right about KFC being the most depressing now, though; I remember driving past a KFC late at night a couple months ago, looking inside & just thinking how depressing it would've been to have been in that building at that time of the day. It's also the dirtiest fast-food chain right now, probably the only fast-food chain I straight-up avoid due to how unclean it is (and given the general standards of fast-food, that's really saying something).
