I agree with him on that Trek needs be on TV again.

Yes, but it doesn't need to be brought back by Seth MacFarlane...

So he's rebooting The Flintstones in 2013 and next Star Trek?

You'd think he'd have his hands full, not to mention Family Guy, etc. are still running.

Yea, Seth would be awful for trek. I'd Rather take Shatner/Berman again.:o

So, Seth McFarlane just wants to reboot shows from the 60s now?

Well he is supposedly a huge Trekker, he was a guest star in some episodes of Enterprise, but can he do a drama as opposed to animated potty humor.

Flintstones, and a open invitation for Star Trek now?

He's a reboot kinda guy here lately.

Well... Mike Judge did manage to pull it off (Beavis & Butt-head - King of the Hill). So, I guess anything's possible. :ohwell:

Kinda makes you wonder (Flintstones, and a open invitation for Star Trek now? He's a reboot kinda guy here lately.), doesn't it? ;)

I was going to point that out. I'd love to see a return to the original series, it was less soapy and more. . . cinematic, if you will.

I would hope McFarlane respects the source material. If not, we could always just not watch it.

Sadly, it will still exist. :-?

While I can understand where Seth is coming from, I would think it wouldn't be possible for him to do that. He's got so many other shows under his belt, how can he do one more?

Remember the time we went on that one planet, and then something related to pop culture happened...

Considering the Flintstones was originally aimed at adults it would be interesting to see what MacFarlane does with it. If he makes it more like American Dad! than Family Guy it might be okay. I wouldn't worry about Star Trek though, as much as I would like to see Star Trek back on T.V. again I don't think J. J. Abrams won't give up that license easily.

Since when does Abrams have any say?
