I like all the GEICO ads but the the newest one, "localized for your town" just has me laughing all the way to the end.
The one I hear is for [Austin] but I'd love to be able to hear the other cities.

I haven't seen it, but it brought back bad memories of the localized version of Great White's "Save Your Love."

Original: I wake in the night/To see you by my side/How could I belong to someone else/When holding you feels so right?

Localized: I wake in the night/Just me and KEGL/How could I belong to someone else/When holding you feels so right?

So, now he's desperately in love with a radio station?

Yeah well, about the tenth time playing that one I glanced at it for a split second.

Now I know that i've seen her before, she played in an episode of How I Met Your Mother.

Everyone go out and buy some RGX body spray, anything to keep them using her in their commeicials, hell i'd buy anything if she were selling it lol.

I predict they'll be selling a huge amount of that stuff! I saw a big display of it by the front door of my local Wal-Mart today!

Re: For something different: Commercials you actually like!

And from version one, she's real. That's always a huge plus. It doesn't change that fact that she definitely would not ever talk to me. Actually, it probably adds to that fact.

By the way, a local news station did a segment where they decided to see if the Axe Effect was real. They put Axe on a guy and sent him out to get chicks to sniff him, with a hidden camera on him. It. Works. Several of them said, "Hey, can I smell you again?" After it was over, the reporter asked one if it was enough to get her to go home with the guy (a very average-looking guy). She said, "It would be a very close call." I wanted to post that segment when it aired, but the website had some kind of javascript protection of their file. Anyway, everybody go out and get some Axe tomorrow.

Yeah, but if we don't go out and by the RGX spray (like John suggested above)....Rachel may lose her job! I don't think I want to be responsible for that!

I've always wondered what the big deal was. I always figured it was your typical BO spray and making you pungent.

Perhaps next weekend I shall experiment.

She wasn't drop-dead gorgeous, but she was cute.

I was subconsciously making a Beavis and Butt-Head reference, I think. There was some episode where Butt-Head was looking at a girl, and Beavis said something about, "What is that guy doing over there?" Butt-Head said, "You were looking at the guy?"

Seriously, it's not that she's beautiful, it's that she's so damn sexy!

Mark, I was responding to Cees, who was asking about the girl in the news segment.

Rachel Specter:

Re: For something different: Commercials you actually like!

Morgan Webb is co-host of X-Play. I thought I had read she had moved over to Attack of the Show as well. I stopped watching the channel about a year ago, and when I went back, it was hard to recognize: Star Trek, Star Trek: TNG, Arrested Development, Cheaters, Jamie Kennedy. HTF is that a video game channel?

Re: For something different: Commercials you actually like!

Morgan is still hosting X-PLAY. She is often on AOTS doing video game segments.

Kevin and Olivia are still the hosts. Blair Butler fills in a lot.

Didn't hear about the RGX girl hosting next week, I missed it a couple times last week.

AOTS is a very good show, if you aren't watching regularly.

Re: For something different: Commercials you actually like!

When I used to watch, it had Sarah Lane. I was never a big fan of the show, but I'll try to give it another try. It's funny/kind of sad to read all of the Morgan Webb fanboys who hate her since she got married. "She just married that guy because he's rich, and now she's dead to me!" I don't get why a viewer having a crush on a host means the host can't have a personal life.

To get back on topic . . . um, I hate that one ad, but I can't remember what it was.

When did she get married? Not to take this further off topic, but they've never mentioned it on the show.
