“Geico tells Fox News that Ermey was not fired and the company had simply moved on.”

It’s always good business for a company to move on from one of it’s most memorable ads to something else. s/

Actually, it is. That's why Verizon moved on from the "Can you hear me?" ads, and T-Mobil from the girl in the pink dress ads, Taco Bell from the "yo quiero Taco Bell" Chihuahua, Apple from "I'm a PC... I'm a Mac" and Bud Light from Spuds MacKenzie.

There are exceptions ... Morris the Cat for 9 Lives, and Mr. Whipple for Charmin (until he died). Ditto Madge for Palmolive.
