While on the topic of commercials, does anyone else hate the commercials w/ Joan Cusack as much as I do?

YES! The funniest commercial imo, of all time, is when teh geico guy takes the caveman out to apologize.
Nothing for me, I seemed to have lost my appetite. HAHAHAHA

I didn't think they were going for "gay" so much as sophisticated. i like this commercial though, very funny.

Well, metro at the least. Did you see the one before the restaurant where they are in their apartment? Neat as a pin. Nice clothes. One caveman is playing the piano in another room.

Their species secretly survive for 20,000 years, yet they are not "sophisticated" enough to shave or get laser hair removal [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Geico does dumb down their commercials (most companies do), yet this commercial series is funny on a few levels.

The robot gecko is stupid. That pasty white dude spokesman is stupid, the whole company is stupid and they rip off their customers.

But I do like how they dumb their commercials down to those who fit the description of their target-audience/potential customers. Very slick by their marketing group.

I hate the reptile and pasty dude too. Not funny to me in the least.

I also didn't get the joke about "to those in Michigan I didn't know it was meatloaf" or something like that. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Basically he's going door to door, and while he was at some family's house, he must have insulted their cooking by not recognizing it as meatloaf or something. Not that diffiuclt. Even you couldn't understand this 'dumbed down' commercial?

And what's all this complaining about 'dumbing down' their commercials. It's a commercial, not some sort of sophisticated high art for chrissakes. What do you expect, "The importance of being Earnest" in 30 seconds?
