Cavemen
Cavemen is an American television comedy created by Joe Lawson and set in San Diego, California. Inspired by the GEICO Cavemen advertisements made for the American vehicle insurance company GEICO that were written by Lawson, the show is described by the network as a "unique buddy comedy that offers a clever twist on stereotypes and turns race relations on its head."
Produced by ABC Studios and Management 360, the series began on October 2, 2007 and continues to air on Tuesday nights at 8:00/7:00c on ABC.
In March 2007, ABC gave a pilot order to a script written by Joe Lawson which was inspired by the GEICO Cavemen advertisements. Lawson would be executive producer alongside Guymon Casady, Josh Gordon, Daniel Rappaport and Will Speck. Gordon and Speck directed the pilot. Later in the same month, Bill Martin and Mike Schiff joined the staff as executive producers.
ABC gave the series an early pick-up and a thirteen-episode order on May 11, 2007.
Discrimination and stereotypes concerning the perception of cavemen within society was a large factor of the pilot episode, seen by some reviewers as "clunky racial allegories." After the initial limited screening of the pilot episode was met with a less than favorable reception, the series subsequently underwent a major creative "retooling", which included changing the show's venue from Atlanta, Georgia to San Diego.
