Default Re: cavemen/carpoolers - season premiere(s)

Watched full eps of them today.

Caveman was better than expected. Nothing to do with the Caveman bit, just that one of the characters (classes dude with the pony tail) was hilarious. I would give this a second chance. A lot of the bigger jokes were forced, but the dialog had some high spots that made me think there's some sharpness there. I think it's biggest failing is simply that the parts of it that work best have nothing to do with guys in funny makeup, and the Caveman bit simply pulls you away from the other aspects of the show, which weren't all bad.

Carpoolers was just a boring basic sitcom. The most engaging character was the son, and he was painfully derivative of stuff we've all seen before. There is just nothing new here in the least. It's not really bad, it's just bringing nothing to the table whatsoever.
