You know the caveman in the Geico commercials?

[proud2BlibKansan]

His mom is a friend of mine.

He also has a TV show. 10 Items or Less

And he blogs on Huffington Post.

So does his wife.

1. Does he carry a club around with him?

Or does he prefer a spear?

[proud2BlibKansan]

2. I will ask his mom

She loves talking about her kid.

13. I thought there were plans to do a show based on the

cavemen characters in that ad. Maybe I just missed it, since I rarely get a chance to watch prime-time TV.

3. That's The Kind of Offensive Post That They're Talking About

Geesh. You'd think a DUer would know better.

11. Go get Geico or something.

;)

8. No season was over

5. Why isn't the Geico stuff listed in his bio?

[proud2BlibKansan]

10. I don't know. I can ask his mom if you want.

6. Oh, wow! Could you tell her something for me?

Tell her that her son provides something for us that most commercials don't?

A good laugh!

Two scenes from two different GEICO commercials.....where he's on the conveyor walk and sees the caveman picture, and walks backwards against the conveyor to take a better look, and then gets all flustered. The other one, where he's out on the balcony at a party, talking to his friend, when one of their caveman friends comes out to tell them that he and his girlfriend are getting back together. He gets all disgusted, turns around and tells caveman friend something like "Hey! We're talking - give us a minute, will ya?" :rofl:

And NOW there is a new one with him dancing. OMG!!!! LOVE HIM LOVE HIM LOVE HIM!!! I never get tired of those commercials.

Thanks for sharing! :hi:

That is cool though. Those commercials are hilarious!

[suninvited]

14. I have seen all the 10 Items or less shows

but I dont recall him in it, who is he?

I just went and looked at the blog. John Lehr is the caveman???? Who knew?

15. The caveman's name is Joe Dayton.

21. He plays the store manager

He also is one of the show's writers.

[suninvited]

24. He is great in that show.

I think it is hilarious. One of my favorite things about that show is NO canned laughter.

I was hoping they would have more episodes this year, but after the writers strike I think they only had two or so new episodes. Unless my recorder missed some.

[proud2BlibKansan]

25. My favorite episode was the illegal alien story

They just got picked up for a second season but I don't know yet when it will air.

[RebelOne]

16. That's not the Caveman. His name is Joe Dayton.

Go to the Website that I have posted below.

17. The OP is referring to John Lehr, I believe

It just blew me away, I never realized he was the caveman.

[RebelOne]

18. John Lehr is not the caveman. See my post above with Web site info.

19. What ?

GEICO Cavemen

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GEICO_Cavemen

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The GEICO Cavemen are popular characters in a series of well-received television advertisements for the auto insurance company GEICO, that have aired from 2004 to present. The campaign was created by Joe Lawson of The Martin Agency. In 2004, GEICO began an advertising campaign featuring Neandertal-like cavemen in a modern setting.<1> The premise of the commercials is that GEICO advertises that using their website is "so easy, a caveman could do it"; and that this slogan offends several cavemen, who not only still exist in modern society but live as intelligent, urbane bachelors. Jeff Daniel Phillips and Ben Weber played the two earliest cavemen and continuously reprise their roles. Actor John Lehr appears most frequently as the caveman. A fourth caveman is played by Ben Wilson.

20. Um I think there is more than one caveman

I also don't understand why John's mom would lie about this. :shrug:

[bikebloke]

22. Was he on Heroes?

Watching Season One of Heroes, I thought the nuke guy was the advert caveman.

[proud2BlibKansan]

23. I don't know I never watched that show

I will ask his mom.
