Meet three cavemen who have successfully made the move to San Diego and are just trying to fit in. They survived the Ice Age but can they deal with modern life?
They have been around since the dawn of time, survived the Ice Age and witnessed the evolution of the Homo Sapiens, making them one of the world's oldest minorities. Keeping mostly to themselves over the millennia and living in remote communities, a small number of cavemen - and cavewomen - have been slowly migrating from these sub-societies and attempting to acclimatise themselves to the modern human world. Needless to say, this has proven difficult.
The three cavemen are Joel, Nick and Andy. Joel is a sophisticated and intelligent man who has a beautiful girlfriend, a decent job and shares an apartment with his younger brother, Andy, and his best friend, Nick. Nick is wary of the Homo Sapien world and feels like he's running away from his heritage. Andy, on the other hand, looks at this new world with his eyes wide open and is willing to take risks in order to learn and to live life to the fullest.
Nick questions Joel on many of his choices, including his girlfriend, Kate, a beautiful modern woman. The fact that Kate's eccentric mother, Leslie, owns Joel's condominium complex makes things even more complicated for the three roommates. Meanwhile, Kate's best friend, Thorne, is intent on discovering the cavemen's wilder side.
Joel, Nick and Andy have to overcome prejudice from most of the modern world and the misconceptions that modern society has of its earliest ancestors but in order for these cavemen to survive in the 21st century, they must work together to render those misconceptions extinct.
Cavemen is on Showtime at 9.30pm from April 1.
