I think it was pretty funny.

"Oh, great. Now all weekend we're going to be listening to James Blunt."

Well, if nothing else, I learned one thing: you keep your penis in your genus.

Wise words.

And no annoying laugh track!

Not to over analyze a great line like, "keep your penis in your genus", but what genus are they supposed to be then? ;)

does anyone know if they'll reair the pilot anytime soon. I missed it dp to a prior commitment.

Finisher 10-02-07 09:54 PM

Not bad, not great.

Liked the one caveman staying home to play online poker after making a big production about needing to get work done.

Definitely room for improvement though.

I'll tune in again. It had some good lines scattered here and there. Liked the one cynical caveman the best. Ha Ha, cant believe I have a favorite caveman! Think we will be seeing any cavewomen?

You mean the one with the tongue stud? ;)

The cynical one was the guy who was so likeable on The View.

some of the commercials are sort of funny, but definitely not something to do one full episode about let alone a whole season

maybe I'll be wrong

For this they cancelled George Lopez? I give it a mont before it gets canned.

I didn't konw they cancelled George Lopez. i though it would be a mid season replacemnet this year.

ChrisHicks 10-02-07 10:33 PM

in for one and I'm out. just didn't like it.

SPiRAL 10-02-07 10:39 PM

For me, Nick Swardson ( Ikea-ish co-worker )was the best thing about this show. Everytime he shows up on Reno 911, I smile.

MechanicalMan 10-02-07 11:23 PM

This wasn't too bad. I would much rather watch this than George Lopez or Big Bang Theory.

They're homos.

This was really bad. I wouldn't be surprised to hear it get cancelled soon. only show that's worse than Jim Belushi's show.

Charlie Goose 10-03-07 07:24 AM

I'm a little disappointed that it wasn't as earth-shakingly godawful as it seemed. I had hoped to be a witness to history.

I was pleasantly surprised to see that it's not a traditional sitcom with canned laughter and a studio audience. Although the pilot didn't grab me, I may give it another go next week. -eek-

Red Dog 10-03-07 08:21 AM

I made it 8 minutes. It was worse than I thought it would be. It would have been interesting to see a laughtrack attached to this because I can't fathom any place where laughs makes any kind of sense.

A-aron 10-03-07 08:23 AM

Not bad .. not great, but I'd probably try it another week.

While watching, I wondered how it would work as a "live" sitcom instead of the filmed type.

At least we get one of the "original" commercial cavemen. I thought he was pretty funny.

mphtrilogy 10-03-07 09:36 AM

I liked it, and I will tune in again. I did not like carpoolers which followed and will be taking that one off of season pass.

At least it didn't have a laugh track.

It did have a laugh track, but even the producers couldn't figure out where to stick in the laughs.

Patman 10-03-07 11:20 AM

I got a kick out of them playing Wii sports. Kate was pretty hot...for a sape.

I think that was officially the turning point in the pilot for me. From that point on, I stopped trying to hate it and actually found it to be a pretty enjoyable pilot. Unfortunately, I think the premise/gimmick of this show may wear thin after a while. Still, no laugh track and reasonably intelligent race issues make this one that I'll stick with for a while.

Matto1020 10-03-07 12:57 PM

I was actually looking forward to this...

I dig the commercials but was pissed when I heard the original cavemen were not in it.

I actually enjoyed it as well and will definetly tune in next week. I am glad the replaced the third cavemen with Jimmy Olsen...that kid cracks me up!

I also hope they can get that one original caveman as a regular on the show and give him more screen time...he was pretty good!
