Those Geico ‘‘cavemen’’ shouldn’t be so upset after all – they may get their own television series.

ABC said Friday it had ordered a pilot for a comedy, tentatively titled Cavemen, that features the characters used in a series of ads by the insurance company. In the ads, cavemen appear insulted by a Geico pitchman’s claim that the company’s Web site is so easy to use that ‘‘even a caveman can do it.’’
