May 16 2007See This Clip of Cavemen Before it Goes Way of Dodo
The road to obscurity is sometimes long and filled with cowboy outfits.
Here's a clip of ABC's upcoming pilot, Cavemen. "I really like the Cavemen, I thought it was a great idea for a show," said a moron while high on drugs.
Yup, it's based on that Geico commercial. And no, they didn't get the original actor who was really the only good part of those commercials.
ABC says: "Meet Joel, his younger brother Jamie, and his best friend Nick, three cavemen living in modern-day Atlanta. These cavemen continually find themselves at odds with contemporary society as they struggle to overcome their physical appearance and the accompanying stereotypes."
I say: The cavemen should do battle with their arch nemesis, the Noid, who wears a red suit and serves sub-par pizza.
Once I saw a gay porno where the Maytag repairman cornholed the Pillsbury Doughboy while the Budweiser frogs wacked off.
That's right, ladies, I watch homosexual pornography. I'm just that comfortable with my sexuality.

Did ABC learn nothing from Encino Man?! Or basically any Brandon Fraiser movie?

That looks awful. The only good thing is that no one will recognize the actors with all that makeup and they'll still be able to pick up girls.

Why did anyone think this would make entertaining TV. I like the commercials because they get right to the punchline. Waiting a half hour to find out that people think cavemen are dumb, not so good.

I'm thinking this could be one of the 'so bad it's good' sitcoms, like 'Dinosaur' or The Fresh Prince. I'll watch it.

Does ANYONE know who the original, actually FUNNY guy from the commercials was?

The racist undertones of dienfranchised cavemen living in Atlanta is bound to be a selling point in the NASCAR demographic

ok, I know american sitcoms aren't brilliant, but really! I liked the commercials because of the main guy, but this is beyond sad -- this is just pathetic. I doubt it will ever even get to air.
I can't actually think of the last thing that I saw that was this bad. If this is the funniest clip they could put out there, I can't think of one reason to even air this.
