Oh come on Bob, you didn't even try: "I'm bob and that is the big slab!" "I'm bob and that is a bolder(Sp?) picture" what it doesn't have to be good, this is on the internet.
I remember Flintstone Kids and Captain Caveman, they were pillars of my Saturday morning cartoon watching. Probably after ODing on Flintstone vitamins.
Dino actually did talk in one episode of the original series, "The Snorkasaurus Hunter" [http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/UfF5h8LhpBM/] (forward to about the 24:00 mark). It's very surreal.Spot1990 said:
Bob, Bob Chipstone would have been funnier than Bob Chiprock (makes you sound like Simon, Alvin and Theodore). And I can see that the Seth McFarlane series won't be a chip off the old block... (BA DUM TISH). I was never that into the Flintstones, but I did watch a hella lot of them when I was a young thing. And I remember the "Pebbles and BamBam as teenagers" series. That was... stupid.
Godamnit, I hate Seth MacFarlane. If he has any creative control over the new Flintstones series, I'm going to commit suicide.
Also, Neil DeGrasse Tyson as the new Carl Sagan in a Cosmos reboot with MacFarlane propping it up?

That's horribly, horribly stupid. Cosmos doesn't need a damn reboot; just more reruns and a bit of editing to make it look cleaner.

The Partridge Family 2200 A.D. cartoon was really out of left field. Hanna-Barbera was known for making animated versions of popular sitcoms, but this was a true anomaly. Who thought making a mutant mashup of The Jetsons and The Partridge Family was a good idea? I realize compromises have to be made during development but you have to cut your losses when the result is this.
One of the hurdles with a reboot of "The Flintstones" is the way technology shapes our lives today. Our relationship with electronics is very different compared to previous generations.

I remember this film, I used to like it when I was a kid:

Anyway, I don't remember much, but the cast has some good names in it, John Goodman is awesome. Maybe it was a shitty horrible film not worth mentioning...

Seth McFarlane...Flintstones...
No. Just...no.
Family Guy drove me nuts because it's basically the "Shrek" version of The Simpsons.
I just don't like McFarlane's style in general. And now he's going to work on the Flintstones.
*sigh*

I was never that crazy about the Flintstones (I liked the Jetsons, oddly), and several times during this video I was almost covering my ears just because the laundry list of rehashes got too embarrassing (seriously, I was going, "Please, tell me they didn't make another... oh great, just when I thought they couldn't sink any lower..." multiple times). It just shows off how ridiculously shameless companies really are about exploiting franchises.
I dread something like this happening to MLP:FiM.
