YMMV / Cavemen

Go To

  • Audience-Alienating Premise: A show inspired by an aging ad campaign that used cavemen as the basis for commentary on social and race issues made the premise either too offensive for minority groups or too silly for pretty much everyone else. Any surprise why it got cancelled quickly?
  • Bile Fascination: The fact that it even got made is enough to warrant this.
  • Mainstream Obscurity: Given its quick death on television, it has naturally fallen under this even with the ad campaign living on in the wake of its cancellation, and has seen no official DVD releases since its debut.
  • Retroactive Recognition: Stephanie Courtney had a recurring role on this, a series spun off from a GEICO campaign, just months before becoming the public face of rival insurance group Progressive.
