They've just opened a BK in my school... I mean, at the mall

And it is so much better than Mc....

Isn't it?

Is anyone besides me creeped out by the new "look" of the Burger King character in the commercials. I mean, I know he's supposed to look like he's from a playing card...but that grin is too too creepy. Like when he's peering into their kitchen window...or in bed with that guy.

Creepy. Creepy. Creepy.
Where are we going, and why am I in this handbasket?

Oh man I totally agree, beacon. That particular one where the guy opens his blinds and there's the King guy is completely creepy.

I completely agree about the creepy-looking King in those ads. Isn't there one where he's lying on the floor of somebody's apartment or house? Freaky! He would make a great character in a new horror film!

Remember this is the company that brought you a submissive chicken in garter belts who will do anything you ask, including spank itself.

I like their edgy campaigns.

Burger King has been on a roll lately (no pun intended) with very provactive (if creepy or dumb) commercials, but I'm going through withdrawl! The Burger King near my office has CLOSED, the Burger King in my Neighborhood is closed for remodeling and so many BKS around Chicago have shut down--I'm craving a Whopper!

I like Wendy's burgers the best; but I like Burger King's fries the best. Hate Wendy's fries.

I ate at Burger King yesterday and it reminded why I don't eat fast food. Maybe it is the location. I ate at the one in Rockefellar Plaza near the 49th St and 6th Ave Subway entrance. I felt so gross.

I love Burger King, but that new breakfast sandwich of theirs is death on a bun. You gotta run like 5 miles JUST to work off that sandwich.

Oh and that King on their commercials freaks me out.

Burger King is better than McDonalds environmentally anyway, they don't cut down quite as many rainforests. But they also don't do mcflurrys re: Burger King

The king reminds me of... oh, what was that guy's name? From Shrek? John Lithgow's character?

Origin of the big plastic Burger King "mask":

It is actually the top of a helium tank used for giving out free balloons at Burger King Grand Openings back in the 1970's. Someone at Burger King's ad agency saw it in a warehouse and got the idea of using it as a mask in commercials. Originally there was a litrtle nozzle coming out of the mouth, so The King would blow up balloons.

Ugh. Burger King. The only thing I'll eat from there is the onion rings. McDonald's is almost as bad. *Arby's!*

But I do love the fact that they got "Hootie" (Hootie & The Blowfish...I forgot his name...Darius something) to do the commercial campaign.
