I will shout it from the roof tops. It makes me laugh out loud. I am on board. TV is not always about saving the world, it can be just silly and fun! I LIKE THIS SHOW!

I loved the cavewoman who forced Nick to work on his dissertation and the scene where he runs from the theater with a delighted look on his face that he's escaped the girlfriend from hell. I'll watch again. I thought it was funny.

Maybe the cavemen could jump in with the Carpool and drive into the sunset. With luck, ABC will evolve this show into a replacement, removing it from our view entirely.

More importantly, does anyone know who played the caveman weatherman? I want to say its Will Ferrell.

Blasphemer!

Unfrozen Caveman Lawer is to date on of my favorite recurring SNL sketches. Phil Hartman's delivery was genious and it was back in the day when the show was still funny.

This Time review provides a much stronger example with the robbery -- does make you think. Better than the blog below, which simply cites laziness, rhythm and sexual prowess. <a href="http://www.palmbeachpost.com/blogs/content/shared-blogs/palmbeach/thompson/entries/2007/10/with_all_the_fu.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.palmbeachpost.com/blogs/content/shared-blogs/palmbeach/thompson/entries/2007/10/with_all_the_fu.html</a> I haven't seen it but the reviews have been interesting to read, in particular the thoughts on how the original pilot used racial stereotypes.

Guess its a good thing I didn't read all these reviews before I saw it. Some great one liners: "Keep your penis in your genus." The one caveman couldn't continue writing his dissertation because WIkipedia was down. Some really good writing I thought. I mean for a 22 min. program, you don't expect Shakespeare. But funny, indeed! I watched the show last night and it was actually pretty funny. Guess its a good thing I didn't read all these reviews before I saw it.

Did nobody heed the signs of the late Phil Hartmen's caveman lawyer sketches on SNL? Those were not funny and this is not funny. There's a reason we have evolution.
