NEW ‘GEICO CAVEMAN’ SHOW: ‘THE NEO-CONDERTHALS’

1. Those Geico commercials crack me up. I don't know why, but they do.
The guy getting pissed at the airport over the poster...that's classic. The therapist one, too--and the therapist herself puts in a strong performance.

They do the 'high dudgeon' routine very well, those actors.

I refuse to allow any Bushit to ruin my enjoyment of those goofy ads. I won't buy the insurance, because I like my own better and they don't offer it in my state, anyway, but the ads are a hoot.

2. "I'm really not in love with your tone right now."
The talking heads one is my favorite.

The Renaissance (cave) man character would make a good premise for a sitcom though...sort of 3rd Rock meets the Flintstones.

3. "Sounds like someone woke up on the wrong side of the rock"
The caveman's reaction is priceless.
