>>90713688
This, /co/ is too dead set of shitting on everything Seth does to remember he doesn't write for FG anymore

Seth wanted it to be a faithful reboot to the original but Fox wanted to make it more adult so Seth scrapped it
>>
>>90713656
There would be countless threads made by pussies complaining about it being "too mean spirited".
>>
It would be like Flintstones and MacFarlane show, so probably twice the crap.
>>
>>90713751
Every show seth made was around his bullshit opinions that religion is for idiots and conservatives are evil.

American Dad.
>>
>>90713656
Well Peter is a fat moron
And Stan is a stupid conservative
So I guess Fred would be a fat narrow minded moron stuck in the past because that's the kind of bias Seth injects into everything
Wich strangely enough isn't too out of character for free
Barney actually fits into it as it is, maybe add a gimmick life his wife sleeps around behind his back
Fred's wife is the Seth MacFarlane wife
Problem is we need to come up with more characters
You can't have fred come home and be alone or with his wife all the time because Seth can't carry a show with less than 3 annoying comic relives
>>
It wouldn't be the comic version so we would hate it

Cutaway gags and Fred and Wilma being emotionally abusive to Pebbles.
>>

>>90714104
Get better taste in music. Seth thinks he's some broadway musical genius yet can only do shit for family guy.
>>
>>90713993
>Problem is we need to come up with more characters
Well could age Pebbles up to fill the obligatory Teenage Girl slot, and could have Dino talk(heck that was his gimmick originally anyways), and could maybe have The Great Gazoo be upgraded to main character status(and ditch the whole "only Fred & Barney can normally see him" bit)

Also since the Rubbles get a lot of attention we don't need to artificially increase the main cast too much
>>
>>90714078
the south park guys write better musicals so seth can't even claim to be the best at it
>>
>>90713656
I think he might have tried to go more" traditional". He probably would want to avoid comparison with Family Guy/American Dad/Cleveland Show and not have the cutaway gags. Beyond that it's hard to say.

However it turned out, I have a strong feeling it wouldn't have been as good as the new DC Flintstones comic. That has set the bar much higher than it might have been.
>>
>>90714310
>muh South Park

Teenager detected
>>
He would write Fred as southern, and have the twist be that this is the modern day south at the end. Qhich is still stuck in the stone age due to religion. Cut to California which is the Jetsons and everything is perfect.
>>
>>90714330
You think Seth writes better musical numbers than guys who have written an actual stage musical?
>>
>>90714310
>the south park guys write better musicals

>>
>>90714078
>>90714104
99% of Family Guy musical numbers just ape their melodies from other music. It takes little talent to tweak a few words here and there.
>>
>>90714008
Worse yet. I wager if the show had been made, the comic wouldn't have been.
>>
I want to believe it would've been good - he genuinely seemed to want to do his very best
>>
>>90714278
Aging pebbles would be really cheap especially because you got an angle with her being a baby and Fred being an inexperienced father and brownie points if you can make it cute so the audience doesn't hate Fred as much

Terrible. Heard that the pilot/promo reel leaked some where but the jokes feel flat, it was Family Guy but set in prehistoric times, and about as edgy as fedora wearing tubster thinking he knows Kung fu.

Judging by the Flintstones skits on FG, it'd be shit.

Seth is a hack he can't break away from the style he has made which is edge and fart jokes any creativity has been drained and beaten out of him.

We can only pray that this is the last media he ever does and that he goes fuck off into the void to be forgotten.

That's where the Great Gazoo comes in as the Brian of the show.

Seriously look up the Flintstones gags that were in family guy, Seth loves adding in the Great Gazoo and I think he voiced him for those bits.

Honestly I think Haley and Steve would have been much improved if they had been each other's age instead of their actual ones, as Haley's plots would work better in a High School environment and Steve's plots about trying to get laid and/or get a girlfriend would be better if he was college aged cause he'd be able to actually succeed once in a while

Not to mention McFarlane has done the whole "Older Daughter, Younger Son(s)" thing in his shows three times now, you'd think he'd try mixing it up a little

That sounds awful honestly. The Flintstone were great because they did regular everything things you would do in a normal prime time television show. Just in the Stone Age era. The stone age era was not a focus point for all the gags, or plot points. It was just the setting, a gimmick for the show.

I like people that can tell when they're on Reddit and when they aren't.

Flintstones are shit. The comedy doesn't hold up at all and the pacing in each episode is wonky. It's from a time before people knew how to make good TV. It doesn't deserve anyone defending it, outside of it's status as a relic I guess.
