The Flintstones to be resurrected by Seth MacFarlane

I kid you not.

Oh God, no! :cry:

There's a lot of potential to be had in mocking the Rockwellian family depiction of the original Flintstones.

Oh good, a fourth animated sitcom that Seth can have star the exact same family once again. :P

Oh God, please no, somebody stop him.

Haven't they used most of all The Flintstones jokes already?

Oh God, please no, somebody stop him.

madsnakehhh

No thanks. Seth should just stick to American Dad at this point. That show is actually funny.

no need to explain...

Oh no....

Meh...other than Johnny Quest I consider all Hanna-Barbera stuff to be junk anyways so it makes little difference to me what anyone does. The official word is that Seth is not doing a modern take on The Flintstones but merely in charge of basically making new episodes so that may be some sort of comfort for people who actually like the old cartoon.

Ruin US airways with your TV garbage, fine. Lots of people do that now

Ruin a clas sic from when US TV was great, no.

Scratch that, ***** no. Now it's ***** personal.

I'm coming Farlane

For obvious reasons.

For those of you getting so upset over this...can't you just avoid it? There are like 800 other channels on TV.

Some people here are overreacting. I'm guessing his version won't be very good but I'll just watch something else. This doesn't "ruin" the old Flintstones.

He'll tarnish its legacy :|

Please don't let this happen!

I agree with this. I didn't care about the cartoon originally. The puns were sooooo bad.

Frankly I don't understand the logic in reviving a dead franchise with a new person behind the wheel. It'll probably do ok for the first few episodes then quickly shuffle off into obscurity as it becomes stale and un-entertaining.

That being said, if it's a funny show that's entertaining on some level, I'll probably tune in to at least watch a few episodes.

Not like Fox has anything else going for it...

Oh God, no! :cry:

Word for word my first thought.

This kinda reminds me of The Terminator Movies.. Started so great, then went to crap when they tried to rejuice the series and then they absolutely killed everything with that TV show.. Now its just LOL

Could it really be worse than those gawdawful live action movies they made a few years back?

I don't mind seeing a new version of the show, but I'll be pissed if Seth does to it what he did to Family Guy, which was turn it into a huge outlet of his far-left beliefs instead of just keeping it a show you can laugh at for mindless humor. I'll give it a chance to see how it starts out and hope for the best.

This doesn't really bother me at all. The Flintstones might actually be good after this.

the headline says it all

To be resurrected by Seth MacFarlane and Air on Fox

It may be good, but MacFarlane hasn't been as good in the recent years

Ugh, what horrible news....

No reboot of the Flintstones will be as good as this.

So he'll have 4 animated shows now.

That's impressive.

With that, I have officially lost what little thread of faith I may have had in humanity.

Inb4 pet dinosaur talks.

Am I the only one who thought the Flinstones sucked to begin with?

Really, nowhere to go but up with the reboot IMO...

With Seth MacFarlane making it, there is most certainly down to go.

The first few seasons of Family Guy would like to have a word with you.

This actually has a ton of potential. An "adult" flinstones could be awesome.

Those seasons are long gone (and I miss them)... Somehow, Seth Mcfaflane will find a way to turn the Flinstones into a political show or Family Guy clone

I'd be worried Fred would just be a clone of Peter.

I can definitely see it.
