KFC Resurrects The Colonel Himself For New Spot Following Colossal Chicken Crisis

He may have kicked the KFC bucket and gone to the great deep-fryer in the sky some 28 years ago, however, KFC has brought Colonel Harland Sanders back for its new “Comeback” campaign.

The 40-second TVC uses news footage of the chicken crisis, stock footage of the Colonel and a rather thumping soundtrack to boot.

It even comes with a dash of the Colonel’s very own wisdom: “My philosophy – don’t quit. Even in tough times, I’d always give the best there was in me. And you’ll always get the best in return.” Check out the ad below:
