cavemen/carpoolers - season premiere(s)
 

anybody else watching this? this definitely has potential. i was just watching it for the sake of watching it at first, but i'm really laughing more than i thought i would. and terry from reno 911's in it, and i know he'll be great. i just wonder if the dialog can keep it up for more than an episode or two.

edit - i'm going to watch carpoolers too, so this will be my crappy abc comedy blog post of the night, but please feel free to share your thoughts [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

i thought cavemen was abysmal, not watching the other one.

Re: cavemen/carpoolers - season premiere(s)
 

cavemen- awful.
carpoolers-ok.

Re: cavemen/carpoolers - season premiere(s)
 

Cavemen was bad, but I only caught the last 5 minutes of it. Carpoolers, on the other hand, I thought was hillarious.

cavemen was atrocious. you could tell what the jokes were supposed to be, it just wasnt funny. like when the guy says, "yah, if you like phony ppl, then turns and orders some 10 word coffee drink. lmao iroic, haha.

seriously. watch How I met your mother, or the office, or scrubs, or 2.5 men, then watch cavemen, and you will see just how bad this show is.

For me, there just isnt a point. IF the premise of the whole show is "hey look, the geico caveppl" this show is done.

If they can take this premise and make it entertaining, that would be different.

I'll watch again next week, and the week after that. AFter 3 shows, I will see how I feel about it.

It's almost like ABC is completely giving up on the primetime sitcom market at this point. They turned a Geico commercial into a show. That pretty much says it all.

i liked carpoolers, i'm dying to find out why jerry minor's character puts up with that whale of a wife.

I'm pretty sure television in general is giving up on the sitcom.

[/ QUOTE ]Show just started. Wow, it's bad. And the makeup on them is worse than the commercials. How bad is it when a Geico commercial has better production values than a network TV show?

I thought Cavemen was going to be spectacularly horrendous, but it was only just regular bad. Even if you find it funny, it's going to get old immediately because the humor is simply that they are cavemen acting like normal people.

Carpoolers - I didn't catch enough of it to judge it. I really like the guy who plays Gracen so I may give it a shot next week.
