I was watching T.V. late last night, and I saw a commercial for the Arizona DMV. It's about some old white guy that goes to the DMV to renew his car registration, but it's closed, so he decides to go home, on the way back, he gets pulled over because his registration is expired. The guy pleads to the cop, "I went to the DMV to renew it, but it's closed." The cop then responds, "Yeah, but you can register your car online." The guy then responds, "But I don't own a computer." The cop gives the guy a ticket, and it ends.

What's the point?

I saw the commercial again about 10 minutes later, and the old guy is Leslie Nielson. What the hell happened to this guy's career? Has he really sunk this low?

I then started thinking about other "famous" people who have let their careers sink this low, but couldn't think of any. I know there has to be more.

I just saw Carlton from Fresh Prince on a horrible commercial. I just remember seeing an old lady doing a back flip that she landed on top of a roof.

All I know is that it is more acceptable for Actors to come out on commercials.

Please, someone kill Alf.

That has got to be the lowest an actor can get...when you were famous, but are now relegated to a bit part (not even the main role) in a commercial.

Burt probably needs money to pay for that bad face lift he got.
