CULTURE: Cavemen the TV Show is Actually Happening

I really, really did not think ABC would do it. The network has decided to air the sitcom “Cavemen” opposite American Idol on Tuesdays. Just think of all the funny jokes TV reporters can make about how “Cavemen can’t even catch a break in scheduling!” Ha ha. I assumed the show would not make it past the pilot stage. But, once again, network executives have been able to go below my lowest expectations.

Please shoot me in the face. It seems like an extreme reaction, but I just watched two minutes of this heaping pile of shit on the Interweb.

Wow. Just fucking wow. It is so horrible I can barely wrap my brain around it. When I first heard that ABC was contemplating a sitcom about the amusing Geico commercial cavemen I assumed it would be about their personal lives. Really bad, but not the worst sitcom ever made. But ABC has decided to make the show about race. Fucking amazing. This could be the worst sitcom of all time.

Throughout all of my painful years in show business I have always heard the same thing from the networks, “We want the next All in the Family.” But it always ends the same: The networks are too scared to tackle any real subject and possibly offend anyone, so they back off or water the show down until it is not funny. But with Cavemen, the network found the perfect combo – because they are Cavemen. Get it? They are sort of like black people.

Actually, you have offended everyone with a brain in their head, you stupid fucking cunt. Television executives should be rounded up and murdered, very slowly, for being the dumbest fuckers on the face of the Earth.

i'm just hoping for a caveman-grey's anatomy crossover.

I hate those commercials. They were funny for about five minutes then they got old real quick.

yeah i honestly don't think this is worse than most everything else on tv.
it's probably going to be retarded, but i'm much more likely to watch caveman over american idol.

bumbling cavemen win over karaoke every time.

I'd watch a show featuring the Gecko before the Cavemen. Have we reached the creative point where our ideas for network shows have to come from commercials?

Next thing you know, they'll bring back "The Mullets"

They should at least have the same actors from the comercials...

that's right, i forgot about the auditions. those are indeed entertaining for the freakshows, but after they're over, watching american idol is like being stuck at the brass monkey with no liquor and better lighting.

i love the commercials, very hard to create a world in a ffew minutes

the clip was kind of funny, i didnt laugh thoguh

This will bomb, but I think it could've been well done; it obviously hasn't though.

I hope this guy gets a show next.

The only problem with watching the auditions, is you have to listen to people that, if they really have people telling them they are wonderful singers, need to find a new friend base because someone is lying to them and in a HUGE way.

My poor ears just can't handle the off tune warblings of Aretha Franklin wannabes that couldn't carry a tune if it were SUPER-GLUED to them.

Dick, asshole, prick...I don't know. Using anatomical terms to insult people is pretty common, gender-aside.

Amen, FTR, you beautiful asshole (gender-neutral!).

pretty sure FTR was just demonstrating how even he can do stupid things to insult everybody, thereby trying to make the programming department heads feel better about themselves.

or not...

I can only hope the Burger King king guest stars and this act causes the show to get sucked in to some kind of black hole of awfulness.

People really should just stop watching television. It's the only way the industry will get a clue, and it's better for your mental health.

I used to say television is just a way to preview what you might get on dvd... but we have the internet for that.

They should just stick to the commercials, seriously.

amen to that. the ratio of hilarious to good to just plain awful and not funny isn't nearly weighted heavily enough in favor of hilarious.

+1

wow...yet another reason to fucking kill your t.v.
cavemen? who does this literal low-brow skit appeal to?
