In the late 80's, Gilbert Gottfried had a recurring gig as a faux executive at MTV. He was working a similar schtick doing ads for Oh Henry candy bars, at the time made by Nestle. This video has three short ads.
After Ferriero acquired the rights to Nestle's candy line, which also included Crunch and 100 Grand, three years ago, they retired Oh Henry in the US. It's still being produced in Canada-----by Hershey.
To think that around the same time these ads aired, Gottfried also was shilling for Banquet's microwave chicken nuggets, and was a little more normal in that he didn't do his usual schtick.
