Saw a lead on V123 today (sorry, Bish) where they referenced this spot voiced by Tim Allen. I hadn't heard it, but really love how he does it.

To me, this is GOOD v/o.
And, in case you didn't know, Allen served 2 and 1/2 years in a federal pen in his '20's for possession of cocaine. Good to know he got on track when he got out, otherwise we all would have missed out on a lot of smiles in our lives. _________________ Scott R. Pollak

Another example of minimalist voiceover comes in this new ad from Apple. Something to learn from young Jedi warriors (us old farts too):

I remember reading that Tim's arrest for cocaine possession also included being a dealer. Very glad he made an about-face in life choices. _________________ "Bailey"

His appearance on Inside The Actors Studio was fun. It's on the Tube of You, somewhere. _________________ Joe Szymanski
