Doesn't the term "actor" eliminate some of these people?

Is it just me or does Christopher Lloyd look like he's nearing death?

All joking aside, I actually LOVE Christopher Lloyd and it pains me to see DTV use stock footage of BTTF and then an insert of the current day Christopher Lloyd.

He has REALLY aged a bunch in the last few years. :(

"Few" is a kind word, remember that BTTF was 21 years ago!

I voted Shatner! "KHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNN!"

I voted Shatner, too... D* took a classic Star Trek movie and dropped Denny Crane in a red uniform right in the middle of it! Hilarious!

Yeah, but the fact that she doesn't know what 1080i is makes me want to rush out and get DirecTV.

I still like Margaret Easley (the redhead from the old DTV commercials, and currently HughesNet).

YOU FORGOT LESLIE NEILSEN!!!! I think he was the first one to do a commercial like this for DirecTV. He was reprising his famous "Don't call me Shirley" scene from Airplane.
