I like Flo.

What I can't stand is the barrage of commercials on the cable channels. More breaks and more commercials than on the network channels. I hate it.

Cute? I think she shows a strong resemblance to the Geico gecko.

I love Flo! She's one of the more clever ones around and at least you know what she's selling (even if you don't always remember the company).

This just in! The winner of the most boring insurance commercials, are those featuring cavemen, followed by any other Geico commercials. These narrowly beat out other insurance commercials, such as those from Progressive and Allstate.

I like the Windows7 ones since my son showed me that the people always look so much better in the flashback part. I'm not really one to pay attention to commercials..but that makes me laugh now that I look for it.
