I was beginning to despair that I was never going to see the "Barnabas" Geico ad (especially after catching a third ad that wasn't it) - but thanks to Zachary Quinto I saw it today. Why thanks to Zachary Quinto? Well, I've been a huge fan of his ever since
Heroes, so I try to catch him whenever he's on, and last night I DVR'd his latest appearance on
The Tonight Show and lo and behold, while just watching the recording and fast forwarding through the commercials, I spotted the lady in the balloon and then went back to watch it. Quite a hoot to hear the name Barnabas. And I can only imagine it would have been a bigger hoot if I'd caught the ad without knowing the name was to come. But then chances are, because I almost always fast forward commercials, I might never have caught the ad on my own. So thanks to everyone who posted about the ad - and big thanks to Josette for starting the topic in the first place.
