Seth MacFarlane to reboot The Flintstones

http://www.deadline.com/2011/05/yabba-dabba-doo-seth-macfarlane-finally-gets-go-ahead-to-reboot-the-flintstones/

So Seth MacFarlane, creator of Family Guy and American Dad is rebooting The Flintstones for a new animated to be aired on FOX in 2013. Seth has had experience of writing for kid's shows including Dexter's Laboratory, Cow and Chicken and Jonny Bravo which were essentially kids shows with adult sensibilities.

I personally think it's a good idea and could possibly introduce The Flintstones to a new wave of fans.

I love Seth MacFarlane.

That is all.

It's the sort of thing that could be really awfully done in the wrong hands but I think this could be good.... as long as it's done straight and not an ironic take on The Flintstones. I like the idea of updating it to be a 21st century prehistoric world, even when I was a kid some of the 50's references didn't make sense! (although a lot of it was lost mid-atlantic too)

If it's Seth MacFarlane doing it, then It looks like it's going to be like this:

But seriously, I have no doubt MacFarlane can make it good. Looking forward to it.

I get the feeling this will be the replacement for family guy, as it now really get stale. Seth aright but, im not to sure about this new project.

Family guy up until S6 was good then it started going down hill. The thing is its Not seth that makes these show great it's the other writers.

I pass judgement once I have seen a couple of episodes

They have said the original Theme Tune will stay, and that they will try to keep the art style similar to the original!

I hope its somewhere along the lines of this 2001 Episode "Flintstones on the rocks"

It does have darker tone

I love that one off special, done by Genndy Tartakovsky, who did Dexter's Lab etc

Its seems this is not the only Classic to get update and be brought back to life:

The Looney Tunes Show: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Looney_Tunes_Show

it just started going out, in the usa.

Rubbish. Family Guy is still great.

That is your opinion I dont mind it,

I and many others things it has gone down the pan and was better in the back in 1999, its all about American dad now
