Revisiting Cavemen

Noel Murray looks back on what went wrong with Cavemen: "The knives were out for Cavemen well before its pilot episode received such a disastrous reception that it was shelved for extensive retooling. It’s easy to see why. Cavemen was designed to be a satirical allegory about race, identity politics, and political correctness, but its unaired pilot exploited rather than critiqued or subverted offensive racial stereotypes."
