Is she the longest running actor/actress in an ad campaign? If not, she has to be close. She has to be close to 20 years. I don't include owner spokespeople, like Dave Thomas. And no animated ads.

Mayhem guy can't be more than 10 years. Probably closer to 7.
JK Simmons/Farmers has been going since 2010.
Flo has been at it since 2008.
Dean Winters/Mayhem Allstate since 2010
Dennis Haysbert has been with Allstate since 2003.

Jeff Daniels Phillips was an original Geico caveman in 2004 and he reprised this role earlier this year.
While not consistent, he has technically been doing it longer than Flo.

Also looks like the Budweiser Wassup guys started in 1999 and reprised their roles in 2020 for some Covid ad nonsense. Again a technicality since they have done this longe,r but not consistently and even different ad campaigns.
So she has a few years to go to beat the caveman, Wassup guys and the Maytag guy.

That counts as animated.

Joe DiMaggio was "Mr. Coffee" for more than 20 years… quite a bit longer than his Hall of Fame MLB career.

What percentage of TV ads are for insurance? 50?
What about American Family Publishers sweepstakes with Ed McMahon. Seems like that went on for a very long time

Who was the comedian who made fun of those commercials where DiMaggio said Mr. Coffee was the best he had ever tasted?Coog97 said:

"C'mon, Joe. You were married to Marilyn Monroe. You HAVE tasted better."
What about this guy? You consider him an "Owner"?

Psssh. Geckos are real.
Mayhem guy is actually around 14 year and Flo is 16 years. It's around these years respectively
FUN FACT: Dean's/Mayhem's brother is the "How do you like them Apples?" guy...
It's just too great that the "Mayhem Brothers" from the Allstate ads are real-life brothers (Dean Winters and Scott William Winters) who were in "John Wick" and "Good Will Hunting," respectively. 🍎 pic.twitter.com/9u05du66eD

According to Wiki Jack Box first appeared in 1951 and it's current iteration appeared in 1994.
Not the same actor though.
I remember you used to Order from a clown with a speaker shoved inside of it in the Jack-in-the-Box drive-through.
Then they had an ad campaign where they blew up the clown in the drive-through line. And after a few years, they brought the current clown Jack into their ad campaign.

I wonder what years Colonel Sanders was making appearances for KFC… couldn't find it quickly.
Thanks and gig'em
