How did Mary Tyler Moore appear in Kentucky Fried Chicken commercials?

CMM Advertising, Inc. introduced three 60- and 30-second commercials for Kentucky Fried Chicken starring Mary Tyler Moore. In one 60-second spot entitled "Carriage Driver". The commercial opens with Mary driving a carriage with a horse as Hank Williams, Jr.'s "I Know It's Not Been Easy Loving Me" plays in the background. As the announcer says "You'll imagine the great taste of Kentucky Fried Chicken made by Colonel Sanders". The next scene cuts to Mary still driving a carriage as Dick Van Dyke waves at her when the announcer says "Kentucky Fried Chicken is the Colonel's Recipe". The next scene cuts to Mary jumping out of the carriage as she gets Kentucky Fried Chicken buckets out of the carriage when the announcer says "No one can give any dinner for Harland Sanders". The next image cuts to Mary at a table eating Kentucky Fried Chicken with Dick Van Dyke when the announcer says "Sometimes, Kentucky Fried Chicken is different than you". At the end of the commercial, Mary is driving a carriage again driving home as the announcer says "If you have Kentucky Fried Chicken, you love the colonel", and fades to black. Then we fade in on a shot of Colonel Sanders's face appearing to animate when the announcer says "Kentucky Fried Chicken: We Do Chicken Right", and it fades to black. In the second 30-second spot entitled "Mountain Climber". The commercial opens with Mary climbing on the mountaintop as Sam & Dave's "Soul Man" plays in the background. As the announcer says "Make a difference with the Colonel's Recipe". The next scene cuts to Mary falling down from a mountain and she gives a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken as the announcer says "No matter what you give to you". The next scene cuts to Mary eating a chicken from a bucket as the announcer says "Next time, if you want Kentucky Fried Chicken". At the end of the commercial, Mary is eating Kentucky Fried Chicken again when the announcer says "You have to find the colonel, with someone else", and fades to black. Then we fade in on a shot of Colonel Sanders's face appearing to animate when the announcer says "Kentucky Fried Chicken: We Do Chicken Right", and it fades to black. In the third and final 30-second spot entitled "Horseback Rider". The commercial opens with Mary riding on a horse as The Lovin' Spoonful's "Rain On The Roof" plays in the background. As the announcer says "Can you imagine whatever it takes?". The next scene cuts to Mary still riding on a horse as she puts a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken as the announcer says "So, grab the colonel's recipe". The next scene cuts to Mary eating a chicken from the Kentucky Fried Chicken bucket when she rides a horse as the announcer says "Colonel Sanders is the best man for chicken". At the end of the commercial, Mary is still riding a horse as the announcer says "Kentucky Fried Chicken is there", and fades to black. Then we fade in on a shot of Colonel Sanders's face appearing to animate when the announcer says "Kentucky Fried Chicken: We Do Chicken Right", and it fades to black.
