OldStandard February 27, 2022 Share February 27, 2022 I’m wondering if Progressive and Liberty Mutual are having some sort of internal contest to see who can run the most insanely stupid ad. The one with the “cowboy” on the drug store pony is pretty awful, and I thought it showed utter disrespect for the viewing audience (kinda like a secret “eye roll”) but then I saw yet ANOTHER Progressive one with the idiots holding the sign - which literally make my stomach ache because they are SO awful. And the voice of “Mara” with the flat (don’t give a rat’s ass) tone is the absolute worst. (She is the voiceover at the end who says “you know, like the sign says” in case you’ve been lucky enough to miss it!). I would go out of my way to avoid either of these companies just because they insult the viewers this way! 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/614/#findComment-7315407
