Q. I’ve been madly Googling, trying to find the name of the actor in one of KFC’s new boneless chicken commercials, who cries out, “I ate the bones!” No success. I think he’s the same actor from an ad a few years ago who bemoans to his family, “Dad got hosed!” I would love to see more of him, maybe in movies.

A. The commercials for KFC, part of Yum Brands, are created by DraftFCB, part of the Interpublic Group of Companies. According to Melanie Perez, a spokeswoman at DraftFCB, the name of the actor in the spot titled “Dad Ate the Bones” is Dorien Wilson. She does not believe he is the same actor from the “Dad Got Hosed” commercial, which was for Verizon Wireless.

Q. Can you tell me the name of the young actor playing the high school student who enjoys a memorable prom night in the current commercial for the Audi S6? He is very expressive, not to mention cute.

A. According to Genesa Garbarino at PMK-BNC, the public relations agency for Audi of America, the actor is named Shane Coffey and he is 26 years old. Mr. Coffey is perhaps best known for his work in the ABC Family series “Pretty Little Liars.”

The Audi commercial, called “Prom,” was created by Venables Bell & Partners in San Francisco.
