Oh man...you had to torture me. LOL I wish I could three-way tie GEICO, Progressive and Liberty My A$$ (R).

I'm guessing you know who I picked.

Back after a long absence...still hating those commercials. Go away Limu Emu and Doug!

Liberty. From that freakin' oversized Colonel Sanders escapee with the doorway reject from Studio 54 to the Christmas "nostalgia" spot, they aren't even mildly amusing, just simply obnoxious ads where the creators are too busy feeling each other up to worry about good, creative advertising.

Not sure why I can't vote in this poll...but Liberty Mutual is the undisputed champion of the year, not just insurance ads.  I want to see the commercial where the emu gets tired of that stupid BS tagline and just kicks Doug's face in to death.

But I am happy to see that most agree that LIBERTY is the worst 

even the jingle is sung bad ... totally uninspired

I do think the Progressive Flo/Jamie ads are beyond annoying. The worst one at the moment, IMO, is when they're trying to sing Danny Boy. WTF?

But yeah, I'm way way done with "Doug and Limu" - and if I have to hear "so you only pay what you need" one more time...:-(

But then, all of a sudden, there's Car Shield taking over the airwaves...aaarrggh!!!

That is definitely not the first Caveman commercial. Pretty sure it was this one:

There was a time where GEICO commercials didn't suck! Personally, I was happy to see this one again when they reaired The Best of GEICO. Also the squirrels. Albeit they had some very quirky commercials in the early days, including the first Gecko ads with Kelsey Grammer ('Frasier'), the car that gets hit by a shooting star in the sky, and the dumbass that pours lighter fluid on his barbecue.

There was also a time where Liberty my a$$ didn't suck either. I'd give anything for them to send that emu back to an exotic animal farm, fire Doug, and bring back the ads with 'Human' by The Human League.

I miss the old Liberty Mutual ads too. They used to have one where they had a very soft song with a very soft sounding singer and a piano and a very soft voiceover artist. This was around 2007.

This is the worst 15 second ad I've seen. Very poorly made and doesn't show the most "important" part of the ad.

Deegan's a good driver, but this is not her first controversy. She and her father, Brian, downplayed the virus, saying it was the same as the flu. Brian is a BMX legend who's won quite a few X Games medals.

Could that girl’s guardians sue you for defamation?!

I picked Liberty Mutual as the “winner” by a hair. One thing that puts ’em on top (besides LiMu Emu, which needs no explanation), but those “people remember commercials that...” adverts. That’s just begging for a Saturday Night Live parody in which the narrator begins, “Studies show that people remember commercials that irritate the f[beep]k out of them.”

If those “so easy a caveman can do it” spots were still running ad nauseam, I’d have picked GEICO, because those ads implied a middle finger to those who are offended or bothered by certain stereotypes and biting humor.

I remember people promoting ostrich and emu meat as alternatives to beef (especially in England during the mad-cow crisis). You can still get the stuff https://amaroohills.com/pages/faqs" rel="nofollow - here, for example . Has anyone on CIH tried it? Based on what the above website states, you might not notice if someone slipped you the bird.

How about...all of the above?

Though I do want to be cheap...Thank God I give YouTube $12 a month so I don't get forced the dumbest commercials in the world!

This is how ANY insurance commercial is made...



Pretty soon ALL YouTube commercials will be forced-watched. I prefer that since that'll give you a minute or two to go into the kitchen to grab another drink or snack...the 6-15 forced commercials on YouTube doesn't even give you time to do that!

So, HART, does the apartment in the GEICO "clogging" ad bring back memories? I'm referring to the gray décor that is so de rigueur these days. There are in-patient psychiatric wards that are prettier. (Below is a picture from http://www.homedepot.com" rel="nofollow - The Home Depot's website , advertising a new kind of paint.) OMG, I spent more than half of '20 on COVID-19 leave. This "color" scheme would've made going back to work seem like parole!

OK, off-topic rant over.

Do HDTV have AdBlockers? My sister is cheap, so next time I visit her house and they watch YouTube on the HDTV, I'll just excuse myself since most of the vids that eat after the commercial anyhow!

We live in a YouTube Nation and it's 100% dumb...so...dumb commercials!

Seen this one a few times. This one, they're trying way too hard with the humor.

I've noticed GEICO's been giving their actors more work by instructing people how to watch more commercials and subscribe on YouTube.

FLO is now a cock blocker too 

of course the couple is interracial .... again 

I wonder what the actual statistics in this new normal 

hmmm 

A record 15.1% of all new marriages in the United States were between spouses of a different race or ethnicity from one another. This compares to 8.4% of all current marriages regardless of when they occurred

this is from wikipedia

Liberty and it's not even close.  I think all can agree that Wet Teddy Bears is one of the worst ads of all time.  And they somehow manage to up the stupidity with each new Statue of Liberty commercial.  The only good commercial they've had so far is the Limo BBQ commercial.

Geico is hit or miss, more miss than hit these days.  Jake from State Farm is annoying but tolerable.  AllState is just unremarkably bad.

Progressive is the best of the bunch; but still hit or miss.  I would classify the spill commercial with the girl daydreaming about Cinderella as one of the best commercials of the year.
