Haven't seen Wink Martindale for a while, but he's now achieved a bit of commercial fame.
A KFC commercial, to be exact.
Wink passes in a blink (sorry for the rhyme) so you have to be awake. The commercial itself is kind of sappy, a parody of JFK's "we're going to the moon" announcement from the '60s. The video has earned a lot of dislikes on YouTube and many less than glowing comments. "Dumbest f---ing advertising ever" is a typically elegant remark.
At least one alert commenter notes Wink's brief presence, so it's nice that some people out there remember him. The Winkster is well into his eighties now, and the last show he hosted was GSN's very forgettable
Instant Recall in 2010. He did make a cameo appearance on
The Chase in 2014, and that currently stands as his last recorded brush with our little genre.
Wink has
his own YouTube channel, though it hasn't been updated for a while. There are some nice game show oldies scattered among other videos.
