Is it “Stewart” from the old Ameritrade commercials?

Sounds like me--'cept it's NCIS instead of House. And that Mayflower ad is CREEPOLA! Reminds me of the car ad (don't remember which one) with the big dummy that they end up putting on the stairs. Makes NO SENSE!

Now, the one with the dog that has nightmares about it's bone--even goes to a bank to put it in a safe deposit box--is great!

Yeah—there was a thread on her a few days ago, and I agree with your analogy! The ad DOES grow on you!

Glad someone else thinks like I do on those ads. Like a rapist or even just a thief would just run away cuz an alarm was going off and give a woman—alone—plenty of time to use the phone. And just what do the people in the office do? Call 911—after the silly woman just wasted precious time calling them first?

I think it’s cute! There are hidden things in the video that cause one to think the ad over again and again. Effective, IMHO.

“I think Progressive insurance chick is kinda hot in a bizaare sort of way.”

She is retro, cheerful, and is built for comfort.

I like her too.

I agree...or, Mayflower chick, Burger King guy AND Jack in the Box. I am glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t get the giant lady in the chair.

Yes, it drives me nuts also! — I find myself screaming at the TV saying “why are you running INTO the house??? especially UPstairs” —

In another one — where the ex-boyfriend kicks in the door after she is taken to the door by her date — I again scratch my head and ask “what kind of people do you date????”

that overgrown marionette is ridiculous — I used Mayflower for one of my moves in the past — but if I was shopping for a moving company now — Mayflower would not be on the list — stupid ad —

I love the good credit score / bad credit score “dogs” though — I mean “bad doggie credit score” even pees on the rug! very funny

yes, I like her too — I’m female so I don’t look for the “hot” element — but there is something very likeable about her —

Probably because one could not imagine her saying no if you were to ask her to have sex with you...

There is something strange about the moving van lady.

It is almost as if someone is pulling her strings or something.
