Speaking of dead people
Does anybody else find the series of ads from Jimmy Dean Sausage" where they pull old clips from when he was alive talking about what he is going to have for breakfast (BRAINS?) creepy?

I prefer that to someone holding his lifeless body up (a la Weekend at Bernie's) and moving his jaw. But I focus on the meat. So no.eyégor wrote:Does anybody else find the series of ads from Jimmy Dean Sausage" where they pull old clips from when he was alive talking about what he is going to have for breakfast (BRAINS?) creepy?

I skip over all ads using my TiVo, so I haven't seen them. I do eat one of "his" products each morning, however.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Yep. Definitely unnerving. I haven't seen TV ads, but I have heard radio ones, and still find them creepy.eyégor wrote:Does anybody else find the series of ads from Jimmy Dean Sausage" where they pull old clips from when he was alive talking about what he is going to have for breakfast (BRAINS?) creepy?
