It’s "The Pizza Head Show"
The most delicious ad campaign character ever.
1. “The Pizza Head Show” 1993-1997
In 1993, Pizza Hut launched what would be one of their most memorable ad campaigns, The Pizza Head Show. The commercials were created by San Francisco’s Goodby Silverstein & Partners and directed by Walter Williams, the creator of Saturday Night Live’s “The Mr. Bill Show”.
Like “The Mr. Bill Show,” Williams gave the commercials a low-budget feel.
All the commercials consisted of spokes-character “Pizza Head” being bullied by pizza-cutter, “Steve,” and an off-camera narrator.
The commercials were pretty popular and over it’s run it incorporated a variety of promotions, like Goosebumps, Jonny Quest and Star Wars.
The campaign ran for 16 spots until its abrupt end in 1997.

Morgan M. 2 months agoAlthough I should, I wish I could remember these Mr. Bill ripoffs. Also I thought these were gonna be new ads and I was tootally pissed they were putting redroofs in the commercial. I search out redroofs in every city i frequent and last I knew there was still one on the outskirts of Charlotte, NC that has pizza hut tiffany lamps and red plastic pizza hut cups. And bonus! They have trivial pursuit cards on the table.
