Today when Fox announced their fall lineup everyone was surprised to find out that Terra Nova isn’t the only show with dinosaurs coming to their airwaves. They shocked everyone when they announced that Seth MacFarlane is bringing The Flintstones out of the Stone Age and into the year 2013.
The man behind Family Guy got his start at Hanna-Barbera and now he is bringing one of their most famous cartoons back to primetime. Here is what he had to say about it, “The very first cartoon character I drew at age two was Fred Flintstone,†said MacFarlane. “So it’s appropriate that events have come full circle, allowing me to produce the newest incarnation of this great franchise. Plus, I think America is finally ready for an animated sitcom about a fat, stupid guy with a wife who’s too good for him.â€
I have been a fan of MacFarlane’s since day one of Family Guy, but I am unsure of his latest venture. While it is fine with him to be crude on 3 current shows, I don’t want to see The Flintstones in the same situations like The Griffins, The Browns and The Smiths. Hopefully since he has been drawing Fred since he was two, he will treat him respect or us fans will send Bam Bam after him!!!
