I always hated these ads, but seeing the youtube videos that take them down are awesome.
Also hate the Lincoln mcconaughey ads. I owned a Lincoln and they are awful cars. They are made by ford, and have the quality of a ford, but are 3x as much to repair and maintain.
Hands down the Progressive ads.
[QUOTE=j9ac9k;4796217]I get what they're trying to do with "LiMu Emu" but ... no. Just stupid rather than "stupid funny."
I don't ever want to see the one about "They burned down my she-shed" again - whichever company that's for.

Nice additions. I can't stand those either.

To be honest, I can't stand any ad that involves a "she-shed" - that's just a cringy term and a horrible idea - they always end up looking like prettified doghouses. Do women really have things like that??

A woman in my neighborhood has a she-shed like in the commercial. It’s an eyesore if you’re walking up or down the street her backyard faces, but it’s really popular w. the other neighborhood she’s.
Pretty sure they all smoke pot in there...
Progressive is by far the worst, but Liberty Mutual has been gaining ground as of late (though I agree with the OP that the bad actor one is okay). Most all of them are annoying on some level or another, though.
The "Don't mess with my Discount" was the worst. Especially the first one with that insane woman. Limu Emu is a close second.
The crazy thing about the Flo adds is they started out in 2008. I can not think of any other commercials character that have had that long run except Mr. Whipple in the Charmin adds. As much as they get replayed I have to wonder just how much bank Stephanie Courtney has made off this one job which I'm sure she thought was just going to be a quick one and done all those years ago. It still throws me off whenever she appears on the Goldbergs because all I can think is "hey theres Flo".

Yeah, Liberty Mutual was trying to recreate that 1970's buddy-cop TV show vibe, and it ain't working because it's ridiculous.

Well, now I'm thinking her she-shed wasn't actually struck by lightning [I]at all[/I]....
I hated those guitar guys in those Geico ads....

Oh yes they do! Sometimes in retaliation of their men having a "man-cave", another horrible name.

Hahaha, yeah, there was no 'lightning' as such burning down her 'she-shed'.......it was the toke lightning.

Yeah, I wonder how many actors have had long running commercial gigs?
The Trivago guy has been doing those ads since 2012. Who else is there?

I forgot about them! I used to think the guy on the right was cute.
How many years has the "can you hear me now" been going? I mean he switched companys but is still basically the same character.
