Face it, you can hear him in your head talking about his spinach puffs or the poison, the poison for Kuzco, the poison chosen especially to kill Kuzco, Kuzco’s poison. They are so not wrong, and it so wouldn’t work with a different voice. Overly Sarcastic Productions, a YouTube channel I follow, also used the term “Platonic ideal.” To describe Kronk as the Platonic ideal of the himbo. Frankly he’s a better choice for Buzz Lightyear than Tim Allen, even though a lot of people will disagree for political reasons.

He was, and I will die on this hill, the Platonic ideal of The Tick. There are many, many roles he’s done in the years since telling M&Ms they can’t eat their own kind that are only as notable as they are because they’re done by him. And part of that is Warburton’s resonant voice and deadpan delivery.īecause when you hire Patrick Warburton, that’s what you want. But it’s certainly one of the first places I saw him, and I’ll go to bat for it as one of the best commercials ever made and certainly the best M&Ms commercial ever made. Certainly it’s possible I’d seen him on Quantum Leap before then, or maybe Northern Exposure or Mad About You. It’s from the ‘90s, and more specific than that I’m not sure. Is it the first place I saw him? Now, that, I’m not sure. With all that Patrick Warburton has done over the years, do I really think of him from a decades-old M&Ms commercial first?.
