Am I crazy or insane? I hate Jaimie, Flo and the whole corporate cast of fake employees
Flo is the absolute worst. You're right.
They should have killed Flo like 3 years ago.
I'm with you, I hate flo so much.

Hate Flo. She doesn't use a trough to put that make up on. She uses a back hoe. I always root for Jamie.

There is some State Farm with mayhem that are great, Geico had good ads a couple of years ago, the ones With Salt and Pepa, Ice T, Final Count Down song, Dikembe Mutombo or the ones that people "freeze" because the comercial is over.



I love this one

I don't mind Progressive's commercials. I like that they're making fun of those god awful Chevy commercials now.

I fucking hate those Liberty commercials where it's the people talking with the Statue of Liberty in the background. And they have the laziest jingle of all time. "Liberty Liberty Liberty, Liberty"

Man, I think the best/funniest insurance commercial on tv right now is the Progressive ad where Jamie and Alan are like "Psh Flo" all badass like then Flo's right there and it just cuts to Jamie sprinting full speed. I don't know why, but I just find it so fucking funny, so no OP, I disagree.

I also like the one where they mock the Chevy ads and the one where they're all in Jamie's house and he's actually a total stud.

I think they are funny because they are somewhat self-aware about their 'corporatist' commercials in just enough way for it to be funny for me.

it's why some of their ads crack me up they are having fun with an otherwise played out gimmick.

allstate, can I get hotub?

and the farmers people are all sorts of fucked up.

I still don't get how car insurance can be so lucrative that you have half a dozen major companies spending tens of millions monthly to advertise constantly on every imaginable channel and medium. It's hilariously ubiquitous to the point of absurdity. It's like in the mid-'90s when half of all TV advertising seemed to be ads for 1-800-COLLECT and its competitors, as though the most salient issue of the time was how to save 10 fucking cents on a goddamn phone call.

Insurance companies are one of the biggest institutional investors. They invest all but enough money to play out claims at a time.

All I can ever think about when I see commercials for The General is how I could probably animated that garbage 3D model better for cheaper

I'd argue Jamie is more annoying than Flo. I've also never understood why they wear aprons. On the flip side, the new AT&T commercials about being just 'ok' are brilliant

Recently, I've been seeing a State Farm commercial with an accident involving an overturned helium truck. The changing voices of everyone in the commercial crack me up still. lol

I like the ones where they spoof other commercials.

Also, the 80s educational video one is the best.

I preferred the old commercials where they were strictly in the stark-white office with that terrible elevator music playing. Her quirkiness was adorable. Also I will never forget "UNICORNS AND GLITTEEEEEERRRRR!!!"

But for real, my low-key most favorite insurance commercials were the Traveler's ones. Doggo!

You guys are crazy. Geico's commercials are God-Tier especially their mid-2000s work and the caveman commercials.

"I'll have the roast duck with the mango salsa."

Classic.

It's basically: Geico >>>>>>>>>>> All-State > Progressive > Farmers >>> The Rest

The Dennis All-State commercials are good, it's like dad talking to me. And Mayhem is like a serial killer running in loose in the commercial break.

As for Flo, I'm fairly indifferent toward her. Some commercials are solid, others are "ehh". Overall though I actually think car insurance commercials are better than the average. They've done good job with branding and making the commercials (& company) memorable. I respect the work.
