I'm a sucker for the washed out industrial cinematography.

Has anyone noticed how well the Grandma is cast and acted? Is it a voiceover to get that hackle raising feeling? The commercial is actually a negative call against having "Blah Blah" insurance but really gets the job done.

Ok! Because she's not a skinny blond, no one will say it, but I think "Melinda" is hot! She's in flats, and as tall as both of the guys! Nice...

What or who is the little kid waving at before his grandmother appears. He is looking to his left and seems to be waving at someone in the distance, but the only people to his left are the Agent and the guy in the other car and all four of them are right in a row.

I believe he was attempting to wave at the State Farm Insurance Agent, but no one explained to him how green screens, or blocking out scenes work.

It's a bit of a shame that they left that in there.

... miss Melinda is a delightfully beautiful, REAL woman... abundant, fully grown and (in the words of Jimi Hendrix) "experienced"!
... i'd happily have her on my arm anywhere and anytime!

What's up with the dial telephone the grandmother is on? Was this spot shot in Australia?
