Today was the first day of a three-day shoot for a Mazda6 commercial. In this spot, I play a college professor. I so love driving the Mazda6 that I blow off my responsibilities to higher learning.

I haul butt into the classroom, and hit a couple high points: “American Revolution… America fights the British… George Washington… wooden teeth… AND America wins! Any questions?” I breeze out without acknowledging any of the raised hands. Then back out on the open road with my copper colored Mazda6.

Everyone on the set was really cool and fun. I had worked with a couple of the Ad Agency guys a few years ago on my Lincoln-Mercury Village commercial. And the director, Baker Smith, directed me in my P.T. Cruiser spot in 1999.
