Cavemen
This show about three cavemen navigating daily life in San Diego confounded the critics. We do not know why anyone thought turning the popular Geico commercial into a half-hour sitcom would be good. The reviews were merciless. A New York Post critic said, “It became clear to me that Cavemen is extinct on arrival.” Variety said it was an “utterly bland exercise.” For the Boston Globe, the show was “among the stalest pieces of bread in the loaf…and it’s certainly the most tasteless.” Clearly, it had few fans.

Now, not all shows can achieve the same success that Law & Order: SVU did. However, this one did not even try at all. The San Francisco-based show followed Jack Hale of the SFPD Deviant Crime Unit and has been called “a mess” by the Miami Herald. The New York Times said it was “pervasively disappointing.” The San Francisco Chronicle went as far as to say, “As it stands, you won’t see any worse acting across the broadcast spectrum…The writing is atrocious. The series is horrifically bad.”
