I've always liked Flo. I wonder if the actor cares that she'll forever be associated with that or if she's just happily counting her bills over a glass of wine.

Useless trivia: the actress who plays Flo had a minor role in the very first episode of "Mad Men." She plays a switchboard operator.

I fricking love Flo. The others are meh--although I like the Zoom call ads with everybody-- but it's rare that I won't actually watch a commercial with Flo in it. When they found that actress, they hit commercial gold. I hope she's got a good agent because they should be paying her very well.

Flo the actress is from The Groundlings. Net Worth: $6 million. I doubt she registers your hate.

I'm surprised she's worth only $6 million - she's been in a major national ad campaign for a very long time. But, celebrity net worth estimates are notoriously inaccurate - in both directions.

R32. Flo the actress is reasonably successful in a very competitive field and is nationally known. Those are major building blocks towards happiness. Someone does not become an actor if they don't want some level of fame. To suggest those aren't components is naive.

Yeah - Liberty Mutual is an embarrassment. Particularly that ill-conceived Limu Emu. Is is a knock on the Geico gecko? It just doesn't work.
But I think Allstate's Mayhem works very well.
The problem with having such a distinctive ad campaign that goes on for years is - when does it end? The ad agency and the actors all keep wanting a higher payday. It becomes difficult to keep it fresh - but everyone is afraid of changing anything.

Flo bugged me when she first showed up, but she grew on me, and the commercials where she plays various family members shows she does have some comedic chops.
Have you ever heard their radio commercials. I am fairly sure the voice actress playing Flo is not the television Flo and some bargain knock-off.
As an old All My Children viewer, I did have a soft spot when they had Susan Lucci play a role.

At some point a few years ago they tried phasing Flo out (some dude on a motorcycle, and Flo appears as a bobblehead in a truck), and evidently it tested poorly, as she was back very soon after that.
They have tried pushing Jamie and Mara really hard over the years, and no doubt they would love to retire Flo, as she is making coin (there was a rumor she was making $1million a year a few years ago, so it might be more now), but people actually remember the ads (and Progressive's name), which is huge.

Ugh. They won't stop with the ads.
They have another series that doesn't have Flo and the cunt where people are "turning into their parents" or something and each line in every variation is torture.
There's also that Idina Menzel insurance ad where she's singing about taxidermy, and if I didn't hate her before, I do now.
