Wasn't Seth MacFarlane trying to develop a Flintstones reboot at one point?

Apparently part of the reason it didn’t pan out was because he couldn’t figure out how to distinguish Fred from Peter Griffin. Not that he wanted them to be similar, he genuinely didn’t seem to know Fred acts nothing like Peter to begin with. That should tell you everything.

I thought the situation was Seth wanted The Flintstones and Fox wanted Rock Family Guy

Kinda like how Seth wanted to make a Star Trek show and Fox wanted him to make a Star Trek show with fart jokes in it. I enjoy the early seasons of The Orville, but I LOVE the new Hulu season. Hope it gets another.

He obviously knows they’re very different characters. It sounds like he chose not to go ahead with it for that specific reason

Thankfully that didn't work out. Don't think we need the Flintstones with rape jokes.

Or Dino being brutalized over and over for comedic effect. Or a criminally insane Pebbles.

Or Fred tripping over a Brontosaurus bone and holding his leg for five minutes.

That fizzled out about a decade ago.
He doesn't seem interested in making animated sitcoms anymore.
