SITCOMS: SO EASY A CAVEMAN CAN DO IT

Note: I jacked the title from Bodog Beat, but it's just too priceless not to use.

Vaulting them into serious contention for Realests of the Year, the Geico Cavemen have been given there own sitcom by ABC.

This is a watershed moment for sitcom programming and cavemen alike.

As should be expected, George Lopez is pretty pissed since his show is getting replaced by Neanderthals. Said Lopez on the web site defamer.com:

"I get kicked out for a...caveman and shows that I out-performed because I'm not owned by [ABC Television Studios]...So a...Chicano can't be on TV but a...caveman can?" Lopez said.

Ouch.

Of course, the series is not without haters. Aint It Cool News' Derek Flint has already seen the pilot and called it "astoundingly awful" and points out that the actors from the original Geico commercials have been replaced.

When reached for comment about this news, the original Geico caveman replied: "Yeah, I have a response.... Ugh, WHAT?!"
