: Hello all,
: I just wrote my post and got my answer that it was ES in the commercial and I thought ok my question is answered. Then I see lots of posts asking about it.
: I really didn't think that there would be so much interest. but then I guess the *is* *Eric Schweig* we are talking about.
: Ok I'll fill you in on as many details as I can now.
: As soon as a get a good look at that commercial again, I'll tell you ALL the DETAILS!
: It is shown on the Canadian network called CTV. It is too bad its not showing on US tv as well.
: OK.
: Setting: apartment, you see the kitchen with a table, and a living room with a tv.
: ES sitting on a couch in an apartment. There are old re-runs of The Lone Ranger playing on the tv off to the side. ES talks about Tonto and the Lone Ranger and how well they worked together and such ( more details later)
: The conclusion the viewers are to get is that nothing is good without its sidekick.
: The tone is serious enough because ES does make you believe he was Tonto. The commercial also has a slightly humourous and slightly hokey tone to it too because of the premise (it's supposed to tie in that a meal isn't good enough without a sidekick eg. pasta, rice etc) but I think it is well done. ES's acting was good.
: ES is pretty much laid back in that commercial. He comes across very believable as Tonto. He has a beautiful voice. His voice - you can't get enough of it and - yes he's good to look at.
: I'll write you the script and more details when I get them.
: Hope this is enough for now. I'll try to write more details and I'll try to get a picture up if I can. ok?
