This Geico TV commercial depicting Peter Pan is the most degrading, prejudice and annoying commercial I've ever seen. The character degrades adults by the comments and the overall pitch 'you make me feel so young'. I trust that Geico's adult customer population will be as offended by this commercial as I am and will take their business to a company that is more professional and appreciates/values every customer regardless of the consumers age!
I am writing to you at this time to file a complaint about HOW OFTEN you are showing Peter Pan at the 1965 Re-Union. It was "cute" the first couple of times, but now, PLEASE remove it from the air. You folks have made so many great one in the past, and probably in the future...so why show this one so often & so many times? For one thing, you are insulting the Class of '65 (my year of graduation). We were born in late 1946-47. NONE of us are CLOSE to 70 yet. We are proud of our "Baby-Boomer" status. You have put us in the "War Baby" generation. NOT GOOD. Then you depict Pan as a "Millennial." Millennials may be a bit self-centered, but NOW you turn around and depict our grandchildren as "bad news." NOT GOOD. My X-generation son throws beer cans at the TV when he sees any of your motorcycle commercials. NOT GOOD. Have you considered maybe its time to seek out a new ad agency? I hope so.
Commercial was never CUTE! Matter fact it is very inappropriate
and is really loud "BILLLLL"
This is one of the more obvious discriminate outlandish slam against elders displaying NO RESPECT with the reheated kid doing a great job of being a little monster.
Geico Commercial are extremely un professional especially the redheaded woman and her comments on driving 3/4 of a car( well she had 3 diii, and the redheaded kid doing his Peter Pan routine, very disgusting
People, lighten up. I'm 55 and although I'm not 70+, I find the Peter Pan commercial hilarous, my 70+ year old parents also find it funny. It's just a commercial.
I find it offensive and extremely irritating because we went to school with someone JUST like that. She would get her giggles by cutting others down in front of everyone and no one ever thought she was funny. She was just flat out mean and rude. And to top it off she was a redhead as well! Every time that stupid commercial comes on it makes me want to throw my shoe at the TV!
Please remove this insulting and most disrespectful Geico Peter Pan ad! I am extremely disappointed that Geico would even consider this type of marketing.
It might be hilarious to me if I weren't over 70 and my name JoAnn!
GEICO has some awful TVads, but the camel ad from 2 years ago is still one of the best on TV ( Hey Mike Mike Mike Mike what DAAAY is it ? It HUMP day!) It should win advertising awards. The Peter Pan ad is silly and Irritating. So ignore GEICO when their commercials come on. All TV ads are metered and measured for success by companies hired to track advertising impact on consumers. The camel ad was a huge success, translated into sales and income. If we ignore the Peter Pan ad, worst possible outcome for GEICO! NO impact on sales/income, GEICO wasted their money . Peter Pan will disappear.
Oh my dear. It takes less and less to shock me anymore. I am an older women and I think this is one of the funniest, entertaining, well thought out commercials I've ever seen. I can not imagine ever finding this offensive. It is smart and well written. It is a wonderful betrayal of how, even years later, some people never change. And that's true. And it's funny. It's really why we attend reunions in the first place, let's be honest...Pick bigger battles, they're too many to count.
I hate the character of Peter Pan, he's a sociopath. And now he's ruined Frank Sinatra!
