I can see it now, some message board in 20 years:

Member posts thread: Does anyone have on DVD that long lost show CAVEMAN?

response: OMG I had forgotten abt that damn show! Man, I'd give anything to be able to see that show. I know it was horrible, but I'd like to see it just for old times sake.

another response: Yeah, I'd like to see that show too. Along with that other show "Flo".

Solomon: I have both those shows on DVD. PM me. LOL

Please! Like they'll be talking about DVDs in 20 years! They'll just inject the movie- (or TV-)juice straight into their eyes!

Um, yes, they probably will be. We have people who still use VHS tapes.

Not everyone is up with the latest technology.

Nothing is wrong with it. I was being sarcastic.

I have two DVD players, one which is a DVD recorder w/VHS. I needed that so I could transfer my VHS tapes onto DVD as well as transfer my home movies by using the VHS-C adaptor.

I still feel what ABC did to Caveman was wrong-lol

I couldn't believe that ABC even thought about making a show like this. I never had any intention of watching it (and never will), because really, it's just one big Geico commercial! Just because something is popular in one medium doesn't mean they have to run it into the ground!

I do agree that this show was definitely a victim of the strike. As for bad shows that went to be cult classics the critics considered Gilligan's Island, the Beverly Hillbillies, the Munsters, the Addams Family, and Threes Company to be junk TV during there first runs but today these shows are considered classics.
