Default Geico Commercials

Okay, we've seen them and I think some of you might have gotten a kick out of the variety of Geico commercials, with the variety of characters, from the original Gecko, to an aging Peter Frampton, to the Pips.. and without Gladys Knight.

Which one of those featured characters is your favorite?

Me? Well, I have to admit, I couldn't stand those Geico commercials, but I finally found a character I got a kick out of, and it's that sound effects guy. I don't know his name, but I think he's the only one that actually made me watch the commercial, without walking away. The guy's got talent!

How about you, what's your favorite Geico featured character? You can choose more than one.

Yep, he would be the best of them. Didn't he play in some of these movies with Leslie Nielson. Police Academy?

Michael Winslow, that's his name. I just did a search on Yahoo and found the guy.

I voted for the (original, as in the first few commercials) Gecko, but I really like PF: "Do you know how I feel?" Comes from being an old fart I guess.

I liked the old ones with the gecko driving his red convertible, not talking with an english accent-that's just not right. Same with the Hamburger Helper talking hand, don't like that either!

It would have to be the cavemen. I saw Peter Frampton in concert when he was in his heyday. If they had not said that was him on that commercial I would have never ever guessed it!

Too much rock 'n roll, maybe?? I'm sorry, but I think the "celebrity" series is kind of pitiful. I went for the lizard. Can't spell gekko. Sorry.

This is my favorite(except I wish they hadn't showed a dog in the back of a truck).
