Title: Who Remembers Ernest?
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on March 26, 2008, 06:46:27 PM: Dude used to crack me up when I was a kid... I actually just found out that dude died about 8 years ago of lung cancer from heavy smoking. Crazy shit, considering this was one of his more popular commercials:

"Ernest Goes To School" that one is also classic. That one along with "Scared Stupid" are probably my favorites.

Title: Re: Who Remembers Ernest?
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on March 28, 2008, 11:24:31 AM: ^Yea...I heard about that. Only Larry the Cable guy is a shit and Ernest was classic.

But the new Ernest that they're using in commercials is blasphemous. Anyone else find that shit disgusting?

No, the way someone explained it to me is that Vern didn't really exist and I guess he just referred to everyone as Vern. I never accepted that theory and just went with Vern being the cameraman
