Reply to comment by spirit_of_a_goat in TIL Ernest P. Worrell (Ernest Saves Christmas et al.) & Vern were originally created by advertising company Carden & Cherry to promote various local and national brands. Due to the commercials popularity, an Ernest television show and ten movies were made, knowwhatimean? by OptionalPlayer

That movie was covered by How Did This Get Made, and June Diane Raphael famously said Bad Ernest is sexy lol. They kinda enjoyed the movie iirc. Maybe i’ll watch it with my kids sometime.

This is the scene I was thinking of

And yes, Nash/ Bad Ernest is sexy for some really odd reason...
