Howdy 'merica! Colonel Sanders is back. Again. But for real this time.

Like Batman, Superman and James Bond, he's too big of a character for one man to bring to life. So, after re-introducing the Colonel to the world for KFC's 75th Anniversary with Darrell Hammond, we decided to do it again a few months later with Norm MacDonald.

And boy, did it cause quite a stir. The Colonel's fried poultry empire was trending on Facebook and Twitter for two days straight and garnered over 1.84 billion media impressions. Now, that's a lot of chicken chatter.

NB: To all my English friends, here's a bit of background on Norm:

1. He was on five seasons of Saturday Night Live in the early 1990s.

2. Comedy Central named him #83 on the show "The Greatest 100 Stand-Ups Of All Time".

3. He told this joke.
