I couldn't get through 5 minutes of the Cleveland Show. He's cornered the market on the loser stoner demographic.
Seth MacFarlane Gets 4th Show; Reboot of "Flintstones"

It does, actually. In fact, I think this is the best place for him. Flintstones was garbage in its original incarnation, never thought I'd say this but he's actually in an ideal position to do good. At the very least I can't see him being worse than the original.Arkvoodle said:
I'm actually in favour of this. If he can make it more in line with the comedy of the Cleveland Show and American Dad, then it should be good. Since when he's not doing bizarre cut-away-gag-humour, the guy and his writers are actually fucking hilarious. Watch any episode of American Dad for evidence of this.
But I swear, if I hear the words "Wilma, this is worse than the time I", or any variation thereof, I am changing the fucking channel immediately.

I have absolutely no faith in this newest endeavor of his. Family Guy stopped being funny a while back with their Star Wars episodes being the only decent releases in the last little while. I've really tried to get in to American Dad and the Cleveland Show but I just can't.
Man, I miss the days of tuning in on Sundays and finding funny episodes of both Family Guy and The Simpsons. Now, they've both lost steam and, in my opinion, should be quietly sent to the elephant graveyard.

Maybe I remain an optimist, but I mean seriously whats your adult animation alternative. Simpsons went down hill far worst then Family Guy and American Dad. South Park is still good, but not as good as it used to be, and everything on adult swim is like South Park only a slight lower quality and more crude *in both a positive and negative way* with the exception of Robot Chicken.
i love family guy and american dad. I'd rather see another sketch cartoon outside the franchises. Like the one he did before..what was it called again? it was great
I'm with this guy. So I'll give him the benefit of the doubt with this one. I won't be looking forward to it, but I'll keep an eye out and check it out when I get the chance.TheRightToArmBears said:
Of course, either the show will change a fair bit, or the style of humour may take a hit, but we'll see what happens. I agree with Puzzlenaut, it's gotta be better than The Cleveland show.
Whats up with MacFarlane and Flintstones? The man has had at least 3 Flintstones jokes/gags in almost every season of family guy. And worse is that they are all bad, ugh "erocktion."
I find it funny how so many people complain how he isn't funny anymore and yet he's the single highest paid television writer ever.
Just like American Dad and the Cleveland show. He could at least do a show without a family with an overweight dad, his inexplicably hotter wife and a baby with an intellect of an adult...Raikazu said:
HOLY CRAP I am sooo glad i'm not the only one in the world who hated the flintstones. Anyway, it'll go as his other show do, they'll get rerun so much people will be forced to like them. Then they'll take timeslots away from shows I enjoy. Seriously, family guy killed Rocket Robinhood reruns, then Futurama for a while and American Dad killed Frisky Dingo and Saul of the Molemen. (I watch Teletoon btw, its sadly the best channel to watch comedy shows on.)
