Geico Ad Guy

Mr. Y and I were watching Person of Interest, the episode called Witness.  There was a detective played by someone familiar, and I finally figured it out.  It's the guy from the Geico ad.  A Google search revealed his name to be Mike McGlone.

I feel like actors who are so recognizable from commercials risk getting stuck with just these roles, but then again, if they don't take the commercials, they may not have any jobs.  I hope they will break out, because some of them are really good.  Like the woman who plays Flo in the Progressive commercial, or the guy who plays Mayhem in the Allstate commercials.
