I agree with doctorcad,



The king was way too creepy looking and had nothing to do with selling hamburgers. The only conection with Burger King was "King". I guess Burger King realized that the "King" must die. Perhaps they will do one more commercial showing the "King" getting whacked by another king....Perhaps an equally creepy Michael Jackson, or Elvis..:bwahaha:

IMO, the best fast food mascot was "Gidget" the Taco Bell Chihuahua. RIP :cry:

Anyone notice that Ronald McDonald kinda faded away also? See him at grand openings or at the Ronald McDonald houses every once and a while. I guess McDonalds learned before it was too late. Bob

The King may be dead--but Domino's brought back the Noid...

The burger king was very, very, very creepy but also made for some hilarious commercials. The BK "wake up with the king" BK breakfast menu commercials & actual pillow were humorous.



Perhaps BK could improve the quality of its food before they try and lure people back :throwup:

What about Quiznos and those stupid gerbil, squirl creatures they used.....some of the dumbest commercials ever made.



I also am not a fan of Burger King...I like flame broiled burgers done rare, but only when I make them at home...not from some fast food chain, and every burger I have ever gotten from Burger King has been too rare...an E-Colli hang out.



I like my steaks rare, but if I am making hamburgers, I buy either a brisket or chuck roast whole and ask the butcher to grind it fresh on the spot.

Jack was laid off for a number of years before he made a comeback. Perhaps the King will also.

Tom,, to me Jack is still a burn-out.......

I like Jack! he is funny in those commercials. Unlike the King, Jack has expressions which makes him seem more real andadds to the humor. I think he probably reminds us of some people we know.



I think it was less of Jack making a come-back, as it is that Jack got new writers for the commercials who are doing a great job making some really funny commercials.
