GEICO's advertising nerds have sunk to the bottom of the barrel. The "Be Happy" ad campaign currently running has four different spots. One features veteran comic Gallagher, who's clearly nuttier than 2 cans of cashews in his bit. Another, just released, features singer Eddie Money as a travel agent. I guess now we know why Money, who's made a habit of playing gigs in my district the last few years despite the lack of a major label deal, was never really given a chance to do any acting aside from his videos back in the day.
And, then, there's this wacky piece, which pretty much says it all.
In a word, "Stoo-pid!"
ReplyDeleteWhy would a muscle man be happy directing traffic anyway? It makes no sense! Then again, there are few GEICO commercials I find appealing anyway.
Aside from the Gecko, GEICO's ad campaigns are designed for small minds. Like kindergarteners.
