Best widely available in le US, definitely Marie Callender's plain chicken pot pie. I caught a sale a while ago, five large MC pot pies for $10 and I had two coupons for a dollar off two pies, so got five pies for $8.
Anyway, I bought all different varieties. The only one that I really liked was the plain one. I bought
chicken and cheddar and bacon
chicken and corn
chicken and mushroom
turkey
chicken
I tried the specialty ones first and they were all awful. I've yet to try the turkey one. Plain chicken will likely remain my favourite.

MC pot pies are the only ready meal I ever buy.

Not at all. That's the suvvern way o'doin' it, y'all.
Seriously, one of my favourite southern dishes is pot pie but for them, it's more a casserole. It's meat, veg and gravy poured into a casserole dish, topped with biscuit dough and baked for about 20-30 minutes. Haven't had the KFC one, but if it lacks a bottom crust, it's likely most like southern pot pie.

Pot pies like Marie Callender's are a variation of the typical British pies (of the savoury varieties).

Pennsy pot pies come in three versions. One is most similar to what many people in the US would call 'chicken and dumplings.' It's a thickened chicken soup with potato dumplings.
Another is like chicken noodle soup but with the noodles being large square-or-diamond-shaped cuts of egg noodles. Sometimes, that one is thickened a bit, too, though not always.
The third is very similar to southern style pot pie.
I can only guess the reason they're called pot pie in Pennsy Dutch cuisine. My assumption would be because all three are slow-stewed in a hot oven, like a pot roast, before the carbs (dumplings, noodles or biscuit dough) are added near the end.

That's what makes it a "pot pie" as opposed to just a normal pie. In a "pot pie", the "pot" forms the bottom of the pie. If you use a crust for both the top and bottom then it's not longer a *pot* pie, it's just a pie.

As someone who went to a prestigious New England boarding school with formal sit-down lunches every day except for Wednesdays, I can confirm that chicken pot pies do not have bottom crusts and only have one layer of pastry on top.
