LatestAndy has people coming at him from two different directions: Nick and Joel want him to vote their way in the next election, while Thorne wants him to buy a gun after a burglary.
Joel, his cynical best friend, Nick, and easy-going little brother, Jamie, are contemporary cavemen who live in the suburban south and simply want to be treated like ordinary thirty-something guys. Despite their attempts at assimilation, Nick doesn't believe mainstream society will ever completely accept them, Jamie seems to take it all in stride and Joel straddles the middle, torn between his friends, his more traditional values and his loving fiancée.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was adapted from GEICO commercials by the same ad agency. ABC bought a 30-second spot and stretched it to 6.5 hours.
The 2007 WGA strike hit mid-production, stranding 6 unaired episodes until 2010. Even the writers abandoned these cavemen.
