The Cavemen producers had to endure a seemingly endless round of cracks like the one on Saturday Night Live's satirical Weekend Update newscast,

Considering that GEICO's Caveman campaign is a blatant ripoff of SNL's "Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer."

This is bull-crap. They are a pretend minority - pretend, just like Je$$e Jack$on’$ credibility.

So the people who are complaining think that blacks are cavemen? THAT is racist.

This all is in the eye of the beholders, and it would appear that said beholders are racists in their own right by attributing the offending traits to black folks.

The "cavemen" actually look more like Australian aborigines, but they don't have their own "Jesse Jackson" as far as I know......

LMAO! Hollyweird is sooooooo stupid. They watch a show lampooning cavemen, with obviously white actors. They (hollyweird leftists) associate “black stereotypes” (remember ONLY RACISTS STEREOTYPE), then they accuse the show of being racist.

Oh my GOD! Mentally ill is the ONLY way to describe Libs, seriously.

We need to find a real caveman and ask his opinion. Until then I have the perfect man for the job. Caveman Lawyer.

Does this mean that the NAACP will become the "National Association for the Advancement of Cave People?"

I won’t bother reading the article, but when I first heard about this proposed show (a few months ago), it struck me as a great example of liberal network hypocrisy. They want to do racial jokes, but since they can’t do them about any group other than white people, they create this imaginary ethnic group.

Problem solved!

I always thought the geico cavemen were parodies of thin skinned blacks who walk around with chips on their shoulders just waiting to be offended by something.

Maybe we should all go around in black face for a day of atonement.

good dancers, great athletes and grand sexual partners

Can't dance or play sports well, but the 3rd one is where I excel.

a cross dating plot line could easily be about two different religions.

This is just a shakedown B$

follow the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Sadly I think this is going to be a hit and they want one of their own paid to be a consultant of doing nothing.

“The cavemen are ‘’known for their athletic prowess, their sexual prowess, their dancing,’’ “

Yeah, but do they have rhythm?

To satisfy everybody casting calls are out for African-American Cro-Magnons, Gay Cro-Magnons, Hispanic Cro-Magnons, a friendly Muslim Cro-Magnons, and not to be spiciest, a Neanderthal.

What makes most of the caveman commercials so funny to me is they give a big middle finger to the professional victims lobby.

In fact, when they first aired, I couldn’t believe they were brave enough to take on the subject.

That said, I don’t think there’s enough material in the concept for it to be successful as a television series.

But then who knows given the rock bottom garbage it’ll be competing with in prime time.

TV is bad with every station getting on the reality show bandwagon with reality TV shows of their own. I fear if this show is popular it may start a new trend of popular commercial to going to TV shows, and even a more downward spiral of TV programing. Watch out for the AFLAC Goose to get his own show next.
