Asian American Commercial Watch: Progressive Insurance’s Announcer

In the latest Progressive Insurance, we have the spokesperson “Flo,” speaking with an Asian American couple about bundling their home and auto insurance together. Flo pushes a button, and a boxing announcer does a comedic announcement on getting ready to “bundle” – a play on “rumble.” Personally, I found the commercial entertaining. The couple could have been of any race or a mixed race marriage, but it was nice to see an Asian American one playing a regular role.

Thanks for rating this! Now tell the world how you feel - .
