Darius Rucker, I believe is his name.

If it isn't him, it looks a lot like him.

I hate those stupid commercials!!!!

1. Oh, they're great
imho

"Come and git it" - cracks me up every time.

THe whole thing drips with sexuality while being WIzard of Ozz-ish clean and psycedellic..

Check out the fries growing the next time.

4. Unfortunately, yes.
Hated the band with the worst name ever, but he is a good guy. I saw an interview with him on TV - liberal and funny. Please go into acting and give up the "music".

6. Especially because they kind of just shoehorn in the new lyrics
"the big rock candy mountain"-- 7 syllables

"the burger king bacon cheddar ranch"-- 9 syllables

7. Oh yeah.
I despise them. I don't really know why the Hootie guy is in them... I mean, what the hell?

And is it just me, or does the "come and get it" girl look like one of the Bangles?

8. That commercial is a convergence of ALL THINGS HORRIBLE.
I mean, as if Hootie isn't bad enough, you've got stick figure models getting ready to "eat" burgers bigger than their freakin' heads...eek.
