GEICO commercials
(see also insurance)

The Geico Gecko, real customers, and easier way to save have thier own pages.


random

The first half of the first video here features a CGI gecko, but not the gecko. (Before the now familiar long-running series of ads about the CGI gecko who promotes Geico, there was a brief series of ads about geckos who didn't work for Geico, and were annoyed that people confused them with the insurance company.) Next up there's a playlist with some random ads, starting with one of my favorites (after which I named one of my NeoPets, Geico no Mayo). The playlist continues with an ad that is probably the first place I ever heard the word "wuxia." Then we have Bob Weadababyitsaboy; mischievous squirrels; Speed Racer and Trixie; a soap opera; a camping ad that I'm pretty sure is a parody of Old Navy ads; "Red Rider"; "Lemonade Not Ice-T"; He-Man vs Skeletor; Lisa Loeb. (Some or all of the ads on this playlist may be part of specific campaigns, but I think of them as random.)


Rhetorical questions / Caveman
A playlist featuring Charlie Daniels; The Waltons; Abe Lincoln; drill sergeant; woodchuck; little piggy; dogs chase cats; pen mightier than sword; Foghorn Leghorn; smartphones. (There are lots of others I didn't feel the need to include, and some that have disappeared from YouTube- I used to have "does the buck stop here," but that's gone now.) Then just one ad from the "Cavemen" campaign. (Generally I find that series of ads stupid, but there was this one that aired during the Hatfields & McCoys miniseries that I thought was terribly funny.)


Get Happy / Brighter Side
A playlist featuring: Gallagher; bodybuilder; Christopher Columbus; Eddie Money; witch in a broom factory; slinky; antelopes; Dikembe Mutombo, Paul Revere; Dracula, Pillsbury Doughboy; Hump Day. Then a playlist featuring: Magician's assistant; giant; alien abduction; divers.


Portraits Gallery / Did You Know?
A playlist featuring: George Washington; pterodactyls; Mr. Tickles; fire!; Napoleon; where do babies come from? Then I have just one ad from the "Did you know" campaign (words really can hurt you).


It's What You Do / Believe It!
A playlist featuring: Horror movie; camels;
Dora the Explorer; Peter Pan reunion; Sleeping Beauty. And a playlist featuring "Lobster Hot Tub Party"; "Science Fair of the Future"; "Best of Geico Winner".


What's Your Reason? / Unskippable
A playlist of pleasant little jingles by Kaija Matiss, then a compilation of amusing ads that start just before the "freeze frame."
