Useless poll: Geico piggy
 
I was just reading a forum where they were discussing the Geico commercial with the piggy going "wheee!" all the way home. The forum itself was cracking me up, with the responses about evenly divided between, "We love it, we rewind it and play it again" and "You have to be kidding, it makes me want to put my foot through the TV".

I personally think it's a hoot. I love the long-suffering Mom, and the way the kid in the back seat looks at the pig. What are your feelings?

I think it's funny the way the little boy in the backseat keeps glaring at the little piggy. But the singing does make me want to tear my ears off my head. :p

I love it. We find it funny.:winner_first_h4h:

Geico piggy... Huh? :confused:

Guess it hasn't crossed the big pond yet.

I like to whirl around in my chair going wee-wee-wee. I love that commercial.

I thought it was a lizard? When did they change things? :confused:

Geico has started making lots of commercials without the gecko. I like the woodchuck one. And the one with the former military drill Sgt. as the therapist who throws the box of tissues at his patient. :p I think my favorite is the talking pothole! My kids say I sound just like it! :o

I love the one with R. Lee Ermey (the former drill drill instructor for the Marines) That one is my favorite along with the Abraham Lincoln commercial.

The announcer asks "Does Geico really save you 15% or more on car insurance? Was Abe Lincoln honest?"...then they show Mary Todd straightening her dress, she asks Lincoln if her dress makes her backside look big. He looks at her for a second, has to actually think about it...and then reluctantly says "Perhaps a bit...". The look on her face as Lincoln checking out her butt before he answers her is really funny. Mary Todd ends up leaves the room looking pretty ticked off. (They really did a good job choosing the actor and actress playing Lincoln and Mary Todd.)

First time I saw it, I laughed so hard. It was hilarious. It still makes me giggle. I'd probably never actually buy Geico insurance (I have USAA...love their insurance) but Geico has got some of the best commercials.

I liked the Caveman commercials too.

I also like the Progressive commercials with "Flo". She's funny.

I laughed out loud the first few times I saw the commercial...They play the heck of it, though, and I've since gotten a little tired of seeing it. My current fave is the woodchuck spot, but I'm sure I'll get sick of that after seeing it 4 or 5000 times. :D
