advertising and other stuff. no, really.
Tell her. The new Sammie is part of Quiznos’ attempt to compete in the fast food snack category and ‘reinvent’ itself with Michael Duncan Clark voicing new TV spots. (One can be found here. I think Clark could probably wolf down 20 of these.) Why stop there though. The food is good, but if it’s me, I’m not focused on line extensions, I’m looking at ways to reduce the price of a toasted sub from, what it is now, $23? Maybe also cut down the time it takes to get a work of art sandwich from 20 minutes to around three or four? Panera is faster. People don’t care about watching a sub enter a kiln to be oven roasted. They want it now.
So sayeth YouTube nation.

I love my Quiznos. But I totally hear you on the need for speed. Wasn't it Homer Simpson who lamented the inability to deep-fry a yak in less than two minutes?
My biggest problem with Quiznos commercials is that they advertise a product that doesn't even come close to resembling what they sell in their stores; and that the premises are half-baked; and the characters unsympathetic. All of which leads me to the inevitable conclusion that I've never been to a deli that couldn't make me a better sandwich in less time.
They're one of a small handful of companies that get less of my money as a direct result of their commercials.
Does anyone remember the Quiznos commercials that featured what looked like a dancing singing dermoid cyst? That turned me right off, and I've never been to a Quiznos and never will go. What the hell were they thinking????
To Carol: They want the subsssss.... I agree that them bastards were nasty as hell and looked like something caught in the drain if Will Farrell would nair his Chest.
Regarding unsympathetic characters, well that's what happens when you pay people to give a testimonial.
And Homer Simpson was spot on in his yearning for the two minute yak tempura.
As for the spot, I disagree and think Michael could wolf down 40 of those fuckers especially if he's in John Coffee mode.
Regarding the rest of the spot, it's ok not something to write home about but not some of the shit I'm forced to sign on a daily basis.
