Why didn't they just use real cavemen? And the other replies that he liked that the "diction was good, I could understand every word.." and they just look at each other and then comment well, at least they didn't say "so easy a caveman...." I can't tell you how excited I was to see it!!! I just bought some more cavemen stuff from the Geico website store.....I'm waiting for them to make a DVD available with ALL of the commericals on it, plus extras etc. And I want one of those blue cavemen t shirts also, but they are on back order. And I miss all the cavemen chatter on this site! FEB. 18, 2008

GEICO is at the forefront of the conversation, and that's the whole point. Publicity is publicity whether positive or negative. I would say the ad campaign is a success based on the discussion here.

I know that alot of people have defended these ads for their utter advertising brilliance, humor mixed with hints of sarcasim is over the heads of some. I'm not in the least surprised to be reminded once again that some people incapable of enjoying a good joke. I get a great kick when I see these commercials on the TV and they always seem to cheer me up. These ads are so smart that they belong in the advertising hall of fame. I would hate to see what kind of commercials these pinheads would like. yeah these commercials are real stupid and offensive.

There seem to be too many caveman links....I clicked on the link you posted above and there were 17 comments still there... Well, I'm feeling better that we can still read and post our cavemen comments here. I still can't believe how panicky I felt when I thought I couldn't access cavemanscrib (One) anymore...imagine never again being able to select the caveman's outfit and see his expressions as he says "What? Does this look sexy to you?" or "You know...you're not going to get anything out of this..." Those moments can get me through a bad day at work!
