McDonalds Filet O Fish Features Lee From Tenacious D.

If you read my blog, you know that I'm a big Tenacious D fan. If you don't have the Tenacious D Masterworks you really need to get it.

The reason I'm showing this clip is that the actor that plays Lee in the new McDonalds commercial for the Filet O Fish was in the original Tenacious D shorts on Mr Show. And he performed at the concerts .

Here's a clip that features him that I think you'll like. It's a bit long, but it's worth it.

  2. Brilliant! The stalkees become the stalkers.
    The baby scene was a little freaky.

  5. Gage - until I was probably 13, I never had fish. And when I was a little, the idea of eating fish reminded me of a rotting fish on the side of a beach or the fishbones you'd see in garbage cans in cartoons.

    Those images are what I always thought of when I thought of the filet of fish sandwich. I've never had one.


    As for other regular fish, I love it!

    that's where my shame is. But really, I have no pride. I was about 15 lbs heavier, have the coordination of a demented grandmother... and yeah, like I said, no pride.

    I do still plan to redo the hairdresser one.

  14. You should appreciate that "our song" (my husbands and mine) is Fuck Her Gently by Tenacious D. It was a match made in heaven.
