    RyothChatty ridiculous rating
    BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
    Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
    Logan Dodd There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.
    Nick Hedge I don't know if this is considered a "spoiler" or not. Maybe it is to someone. So I am erring on the side of caution here.First off, IMDb's info on this show is incorrect. I have ALL of the episodes and there are 13 in all (including the pilot). The episodes are as follows:00 - Pilot Episode 01 - Her Embarrassed 02 - Nick Get Job 03 - The Cavewoman 04 - The Mascot 05 - The Shaver 06 - Rock Vote 07 - Andy Work, Nick Jerk 08 - Caveman Holiday 09 - Nick Sick 10 - Andy, the Standup 11 - Cave Kid 12 - Hunter & GatherersThe Pilot episode, even though it has the regular guys in the open up; Dash Mihok plays Jamie, Joel's brother in the pilot. Then, from there on Sam Huntington takes over as Andy, Joel's brother.French Stewart - Mr Busby, Joel's boss at Norskbild is in two episodes (not one). He appears in Caveman Holiday AND Hunters & Gatherers.Maybe only 9 aired - but to anyone who loves this show, there are 13 in all.
    IngleMike This show wasn't bad much the same way vanilla isn't bad. This was a generic sitcom that depended on the leads being cavemen, but really didn't exploit that angle. The writers played it very safe here. I guess I was expecting a fish out of water type comedy with these guys trying to adapt to the modern world. Instead it was just some 20-somethings with lots of hair. I didn't watch most of the episodes but I don't think there was a back story for these guys. The reason I'm disappointed is that they really could done something interesting here and instead we got the most bland writing possible, not bad just boring. Look to Phil Hartman for inspiration.
    reviewerinoimdbino I know some idiots still want to criticize this show for even having the temerity to exist, but the scripts and the characterizations on this show are such gemlike delights from second to second that I feel a need to comment on it all.First of all, thanks to Julie White for existing. Her work as the snobby, clueless, effortlessly immoral and cavist mother of the girlfriend of one of our boys (and his co-op manager) is INCREDIBLE. She was superb in the original unaired pilot that you'll have to search out, and she's superb here. What line readings, what a comedienne.(BTW, the original pilot was somewhat more of a conventional sitcom. This tweaked version is definitely better, but they're both great. I just wish everyone could have seen the boys' Comedy of Embarrassment trials in that pilot. When they got stuck at the cavist country club and our hero accidentally falls into the fire pit and brandishes a branch like a club and is reduced to hideous grunts like, you know, a caveman--it's hilarious.) The other actors are each so distinct and so insightful in their delicate characterizations of each caveman. It's ironic that 3-episode guest star J.P. Manoux is back to his nerdy "type" here when he was so funny as a caveman himself in "Phil of the Future." I think the best caveman here, by a nose, is actually our boys' friend Maurice, played by Jeffrey Daniel Phillips. He was so funny in some of the Geico ads and in the cavemanscrib Web site. There is just something so incredibly caveman about him. He's a rebel, a hipster, a righteous dude, and assuredly one for the ladies, if you get my drift. It's like his eyes have seen everything there is to see and he's back for more.
    myrafilms That's what my Granddaddy used to say, and wow -- he's still right. It's frustrating to hear all of the negative comments out there about CAVEMEN. And what I've noticed is that the folks who are nay-saying this absolutely hilarious new show haven't even seen it! (That's kind of like someone complaining about our government leaders when that person isn't even registered to vote.) Anyway, I urge and encourage you to check out at least one episode of CAVEMEN, especially if you're an under-50 male. The writing is brilliant, and the acting is perfectly paced and delivered. It's simply a good show, from concept through post and onto your screen. Don't miss it!
