Character
Robotic Caveman
Robotic Caveman in Futurama (1999), played by Maurice LaMarche.
A background oddity of New New York, this robotic caveman turns up as a talking head whenever the news needs an 'expert' opinion, whether on fashion, technology, or the outrage of the week. He speaks with blunt, prehistoric certainty, entirely unbothered by his own contradiction.
Futurama loves a joke that exists purely for its own sake, and this is one of the purest: a creature who should have nothing to say about modern life is treated as an authority on it anyway. Maurice LaMarche gives him a gravelly, self-assured delivery that sells the absurdity completely, and the show never explains him, which is exactly right.
