Some of those "You're not you when you're hungry" commercials are hilarious :) Putting Danny Trejo in a Brady Bunch scene is comical lol. I don't get the last part of the commercial though. Who is that who says Marsha Marsha Marsha and why is it funny? It makes me laugh but since I don't know who the actor is, I don't really get why its funny.

The actor's name is Steve Buscemi. I think he was chosen for a couple of reasons, both of which mean that for people familiar with his work he was the ideal choice. One reason might be because he's often played whiney, demanding, insecure characters, another might be because of the way he looks, which a little strange in a funny way...

Don't know if I can pick out the 'best' as there are a number that come to mind when I consider the question.
"My boloney has a first name it's O-S-C-A-R..."
"How do you handle a hungry man? The Manhandlers!"
We don't see gasoline commercials anymore, do we? Or maybe...don't get out like I used to...
"You can trust your car! To the man who wears the Star!"
"You expect more from Standard, and you get it!"
I like the Allstate Mayhem commercials...those are a hoot...a nice blend of horror and humor.

I love that commercial and Buscemi's "portrayal" of Jan!
