Who is that guy who pops up in three different ads?

I started noticing that this guy keeps popping up on three ads: Capital One, Pringles, and HEB (a San Antonio-based giant grocery chain). We all know who David Spade is, but he is the one who stabbed the straw doll in the back while the other guy would be led to do any body movements controlled by David. I may be dimensionally-challenged, but I am still trying to figure out how can this guy make repeated motions while "dumping himself up and down" with his arms spread out in a trash can. Anyone know who this guy is? In one of the HEB ads, this guy really is comical and knows how to make a fool of himself. His facial expressions are quite priceless.

There is always people like that.

There is one guy I remember being in Burger King ads along with the Mastercard Priceless ad about starting your own business and he pulls the paper jam out of the copier. He has also been in a couple others.

There is also a girl that has been in a couple ones including a Circuit City ad where she works there and the guy can't find his reciept. She was also in some McDonalds/Fast Food-type commercial.

I watch entirely way too much TV.........

i remember back a little while ago there was this picture of a family that showed up everywhere. billboards, magazine ads for several different companies, newspapers. basically if there was a flat space that needed a family, they were the ones. i like to think noticing people in printed sources is slightly better than bensons sitting around taking note of everyone in tv commercials.

I don't know, I think Benson's note-taking comes in mighty handy sometimes!!! :lol:
