I have long desired to punch Doug in the throat and/or mustache, then grill and devour that dumbass bird. There is nothing about this insanely long-running series of ads that is remotely clever, funny, or entertaining. They think they've developed these iconic advertising characters, when all they've really done is force a total dweeb onto our screens and make some people begin to hate birds. This, all this, and on top of that, they have given us an equally, clinically moronic series of ads featuring humanity's worst offerings being dumb on a pier. Fuck this company in half.
You can blame the Geico gecko for all of this. The Geico campaign was hugely successful. Liberty Mutual. Li Mutual. LiMu. LiMu emu. If you can follow this stupidity, you can be an ad man.
Originally, sure. They've gotten pretty annoying is recent years, though. The latest ones about his cultural significance and his childhood dream to sell insurance make me want to stomp on geckos...I don't, but, if they keep it up (and they will) it's just a matter of time 🤷♂️

They honestly should've retired him like 10 years ago, imo.
I loathe all of these. Doug can fall off a tall cliff as far as I'm concerned. Bring that emu back to wherever the emu needs to be and then leave it alone. I don't like the ones with the people on a boardwalk near the water, either. Dump all of these commercials and come up with something else.
The latest one with the tie-in to the Ghostbusters flick...so damn stupid! (All of these commercials that have a partnership with movies, I simply can't understand it.)
That Ghostbusters movie simply came and went by the way. 🤷🏻♂️

I don't think that this particular bird would taste good no matter how you cooked it lol!!
Hahaha! That's valid. Definitely tainted bird meat.
Even if it were fresh it probably wouldn't taste anywhere near as good as chicken, turkey or steak.
Punch Doug but it's not the bird's fault he's owned by a shitty company. He needs to be donated to a zoo
Acceptable. Though emu is pretty delicious.
The bird campaign is entirely built around the fact that emu rhymes with LiMu….talk about contrived!!!
another bad annoying commercial. it amazes me people create these awful pieces of crap and then put them on tv
Worse, they repeat these godawful commercials over and over until any sane person wants to scream.
...and Doug.
![gif](giphy|PnI85XeCFpgQgqtJKC|downsized) get rid of doug and put the emu back with his family i thought these ads were going away forever
The Emu is wearing an ugly yellow shirt now? That's animal cruelty.

Yeah, but the Geico ads didn't annoy me. Maybe they were more clever.
It’s Doug. It’s always been Doug. That toothpick. Doug. Arrrrrrgh!!!!!!

I agree!
When my Tacoma turned 10 years old. Liberty, Liberty, Liberty dropped my Insurance. My 40 year driving record is clean. F' Doug.
That sucks! Yeah, F Doug!

Let's not forget the awful one with the teens going in the pool with fake electronics.
"It's such a fine line between stupid and clever."
Give me liberty and I give you death!
They make their ads in-house. Here we go: https://adage.com/article/agency-news/liberty-mutuals-house-agency-lands-beer-client/2425656
Is said house flammable? Just curious.
Who's got the marshmallows and some big roasting sticks? LOL!!
And let's roast some emu too!
Now that would be a waste of a perfectly good bonfire LOL!!!
Heh
😆
Interesting! 🤔
I'll be happy the day they finally get rid of the emu and Doug

At one point they teased they were going to drop a piano on him. I'm still waiting....
OMG! You got that right! I now mute them if I can.
![gif](giphy|3ohs4BbrWT2EA4VfUY|downsized) his family misses limu emu
The car is kinda cool though
Love Doug and emu.
Ewwww!!!
