Flo from the Progressive commercials

Flo!
Progressive really hit a home run with their recent commercial series starring “Flo”, played by strangely endearing actress, Stephanie Courtney. The above clip is by far my favorite, if only because that random high-pitched squeal she lets out reminds me of Jim Carrey’s random squeal in Dumb and Dumber (below, ~1:10). Flo could potentially be in the elite class of inhumanly annoying characters like the Verizon guy, Jared from Subway, or Wilford Brimley, but she someone remains tolerable through most of the commercials. Of course, she apparently signed on for 12 more entries, which means it’s only a matter of time before she goes the way of the Taco Bell dog.
