John Madden impersonator in Blitz: The League II
Although it's probably wrong to call Frank Caliendo a "John Madden impersonator," because he does a billion great impressions ranging from President Bush to William Shatner, he's definitely best known for his spot-on send up of the white-haired football legend. Both Caliendo and Jay Mohr are joining the voice cast of Midway's upcoming footballer, Blitz: The League II.Caliendo will play three different characters, the prison warden, the offensive line coordinator and the color commentator, and Mohr will be playing The Agent, which will probably be similar to the role he played in Jerry Maguire. Midway probably wants to avoid a lawsuit with NBC, the NFL, and Madden himself, so it's doubtful Caliendo will be speaking as The Coach when we get blitzed this Fall... but here's hoping. %Gallery-20859%
DISH Network calls up Frank Caliendo to push standalone HD package
You know that standalone HD package DISH Network announced just last month? No? Don't worry -- it won't be long before Frank Caliendo is shoving deets about it down your ear canal. Sure enough, DISH has inked a deal with the "star" of FrankTV to headline its latest multimedia marketing campaign. More specifically, Mr. Caliendo will be pushing the provider's newest HD channels, "DVR leadership" and the aforementioned HD only package as well. Of course, such a gig shouldn't be hard to pull off for this fellow -- after all, he's "been a DISH Network customer for years." Or is that just part of the act, too?Read - DISH Network Features Comedian Frank Caliendo in Ad CampaignRead - Video of Frank's DISH Network adsRead - Outtakes of Frank's DISH Network ads
