It's peek, not peak. A peak is a pointed top.

Actually, it's an antiquated spelling, from the Anglo-Saxon root. We just used the less famous, more correct form of the word.

That crappy caveman show wasn't anything like the commercials. A caveman show based on the popular commercials would have been a hit, but nooooo. They had to screw with it and F it up so much that even the semi-retarded people who watch ABC couldn't take it. They even managed to screw up the later caveman commercials and make those unwatchable.

Caveman could've been worth a damn IF ABC had some balls and backed it. BUT like most american businesses, ABC got by on the "Short stroke".

@mkmvt To be clear, I said:

"That crappy caveman show wasn't anything like the commercials. A caveman show based on the popular commercials would have been a hit, but nooooo. . ."

Then TitaniumToothpaste said:

"Oh yeah, pitch me how they would make a TV show based entirely on the commercial."

Then I said:

"They are upper-class, snooty metrosexuals living in a world where they are almost constantly offended. To them, every day is full of drama. Serious to them, hilarious to us . . ."

[mkmvt]

i get it! its to good to be funny or interesting in any way thats why the cavemen got cancelled it was too good!
