Pesonally, I think I'll stick with the roast duck with the mango salsa.

Cavemen are naturally funny, like pirates. Curtis on "Phil of the Future" cracks me up. (I have two kids, OK?)

Gave up on the networks years ago when they finally got down to the level of the high school dropout. They'll overdo the caveman, like they overdo everything else.

Looks like somebody woke up on the wrong side of the rock.


The sad part is that those commercials are right up there with the best on TV.

They make me laugh...I'll admit that.

No live TV at the house for 25 years, had the cable shut off at the shop a month ago (was using it to test TV's). I think life's better without it.

I'm with ya brotha, Curtis is pretty funny but Imust admit, the girl that is Phil's 'friend' is pretty cute. I still have a spot for Kim Possible though...

Is it me or is the Gieco caveman stuff a total spiff on gays?

Probably more a spoof on metrosexual rather than homosexual.
The cavemen often mention their girlfriends, and there is some
mention of it in his blog on the computer in his apartment.

I know two animation writers - Emmy winners - who are probably two of the highest regarded people in the cartoon industry. They don't own a television. They figure it's better to not expose their daughters to even their own shows...

As they put it: "We know what gets made at the sausage factory."

They are good. The gecko, too. Try comparing them to the Budweiser commercials--you know, the foxy girls and the dumb guys. Beer is bad on TV.
