Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane has scored the rights to remake the iconic 60s TV cartoon series The Flintstones.
The Flintstones was created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera and ran from September 30, 1960 to April 1, 1966. It celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2010.
A movie ‘The Man Called Flintstone’ was made as a feature film in 1966. There was also two Hollywood movies, The Flintstones (1994) and ‘The Flintstones In Viva Rock Vegas’ in 2000.
MacFarlane expects his new version of The Flintstones will air in 2013. “I think America is finally ready for an animated sitcom about a fat, stupid guy with a wife who’s too good for him,” he said today in a statement.
MacFarlane has featured The Flintstones in Family Guy before. Check it out:
