ABC won't show Cavemen to TV critics
ABC is not showing the retooled and reshot Cavemen to TV critics.
Now, this could be a strategy, a la CBS and Kid Nation, to not show the pilot of a show that has been savaged by critics and the industry, to create buzz, or it could be a matter of not showing it to critics because it's just bad, like when movie studios don't let movie critics screen a bad film before it opens on a Friday. |

I have a feeling the show is just a clunker - and will probably be gone by Thanksgiving.

I for one, can't wait to see this. ABC hyped it just enough to pique me interest.

I saw the pilot,and it WAS a clunker.And it wasn't funny at all.I thought a comedy series were supposed to be funny.This thing WASN'T.The most boring-and I DO mean boring with a capital B comedy I have ever seen.What was ABC thinking?Absolutely pathetic with a Capital P.Verdict:Boring and Pathetic.If it lasts the entire season,it will be a miracle.Prediction:Look for immediate extinction and cancellation.

And now you know why ABC avoided the critics entirely.
