Seth MacFarlane, creator of Family Guy and American Dad, is set to relaunch The Flintstones with a new series coming in 2013. MacFarlane, a life-long Flintstones fan, was on hand at a recent FOX presentation to ad buyers to announce the news.
So far, no information has been revealed as to whether the new Flintstones will follow in the raunchy yet hilarious footsteps of MacFarlane’s popular animated characters including The Griffins and American Dad’s Roger. One thing we do know is that MacFarlane’s Flintstones will be a prime-time series as it was originally when launched on ABC in 1960.
