August 17, 201511 yr Is this real? Darrell Hammond had this great creepy thing going as Col. Sanders. He's being replaced with Norm McDonald? Really? One of the most talented SNL guys ever...being replaced by one of the least talented. http://uproxx.com/tv/2015/08/norm-macdonald-darrell-hammond-colonel-sanders-kfc/
August 17, 201511 yr I don't know that I would have replaced Hammond with Macdonald for that particular role, but that said..... LEAST TALENTED?!? I think the world of Hammond but he is not better than Norm, and he's certainly not the most to Norm's least talented.
August 17, 201511 yr I like Norm's portrayal much better. Darrell Hammond came across as a creepy old man.
August 17, 201511 yr I don't know that I would have replaced Hammond with Macdonald for that particular role, but that said..... LEAST TALENTED?!? I think the world of Hammond but he is not better than Norm, and he's certainly not the most to Norm's least talented. Huge fan of Norm MacDonald. Absolutely agree with you here.
August 17, 201511 yr Honestly, I'd have loved to sit in on the agency pitch for this to begin with. I mean, how big of ones do you have to have to go in and tell someone that their iconic figurehead is going to be turned into...well, whatever it's turned in to at this time. And the writer for their "baseball" script should just flat out be fired, IMO.
August 17, 201511 yr Never thought of Hammond being very good in anything really. Norm is the kind of guy you either love/hate for most.
August 17, 201511 yr They are going to ruin KFC for me...I don't want my SNL guys advertising my food.
August 17, 201511 yr They are going to ruin KFC for me...I don't want my SNL guys advertising my food. You mean the food itself had already done that......:puke:
August 17, 201511 yr You mean the food itself had already done that......:puke: Nothing better than a bucket of chicken, couple biscuits and long nap....
August 17, 201511 yr First Norm Commercial that I saw is a ton better than the Hammond ones. Who says Norm isn't talented? I have two words for you, "Turd Ferguson"
August 17, 201511 yr Not at all a freak for McDonald, but absolutely couldn't stand Hammond's version of the Colonel. Not sure that Norm is the right guy, but a refreshing change from the terrible misstep of using an all wrong Hammond. Ultimately I'd rather see them cleverly use old footage of the real Colonel Sanders.
August 18, 201511 yr Saw the one with Macdonald this morning, STILL bad! I hope he doesn't last either.
August 19, 201511 yr The marketing with this whole KFC bringing the colonel back was great in theory but huge miss with the direction they went. I I like brining the colonel back, but make him a serious guy like the real Col Sanders was. Not a comic.
