Observation in GEICO commercial
« on: December 26, 2010, 09:22:40 PM »
I just want to make sure I'm not losing my mind here.   :blink:

It's the one GEICO commercial that's a spoof of "Antiques Roadshow" (A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush).  Has anybody noticed the sign hanging on the wall in the background that says "the traveling appraiser?"  The font is different, but the white lettering in the blue box...

Am I the only one who thinks it looks like the TWC logo?

I never really looked at the background in that commercial... Normally I don't pay attention to many commercials.

But, yes, I guess that looks similar to the TWC logo.

I noticed that when I saw this for the first time on TV, but I didn't think much of it then probably because the font was way different than TWC logo.

EDIT: BTW, I would like to add I thought that was such a stupid commercial.
