Maybe the caveman can rent an apartment with two attractive women, and they can have a busybody landlord who must be deceived in to thinking the caveman is gay to allow the otherwise scandalous cohabitation in his building. ---

I wish I was a stylized cartoon; I would TOTALLY hit on Erin Esurance. As for the Geico Cavemen…you know, I have heard many people saying that this is going to be a horrible idea, that the show will have less episodes than _Cop Rock_ and so forth…so I’m secretly hoping that they somehow manage to make this a BRILLIANT comedy show. Emmy-award winning, that sort of thing. Just because it _does_ seem to be almost as bad an idea as making a spinoff series based on Debbie Downer from SNL, and it would nice to be surprised. ---

I like the cavemen but I agree it’s getting overdone. I like the “roast duck with mango salsa” and the one at the airport (no dialog needed) but the rest are just “meh” for me. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/geico-cavemen-might-get-their-own-tv-show/394496.md?page=3)
