GM may have OnStar but Ford has the Captain of Voyager.
While still not as chic as the voice of the computer (aka Troi’s mother), Janeway’s voice in a Ford might actually make me buy one, LOL! Although I do remember early reviews of ST:Voyager where people would complain about her annoying voice. She’s probably one of the few characters besides Troi to actually get voice lessons for the show. Personally, even though he’s a guy and I don’t swing that way, I’ve found Picard’s voice to be sexiest. I can only hope that when I’m his age I’ll sound that wise and strong. It sort of has that Connery feal to it. Anyway, Janeway’s voice sounds pretty good in the Ford Freestar advert. Hmm, maybe I’ll start capturing every famous voice over I hear in commercials. Don’t ask how I know this, but some of the Country Crock (or was it some other butter) uses the voice of the guy that does the voice for the Dad in Rugrats. Actually looking at that IMDB listing was educational, didn’t realize Whoopi did voices for that last film as well.
This just goes to show what a Media Center will do to your TV viewing habits. I really don’t watch a lot of TV, usually only while I’m eating dinner. Sometimes though when I’m eating I can’t skip commercials so because the networks tend to run the same adverts with the same shows they’re constantly being pounded into my mind at 3 times the volume of my regularly scheduled program .
