lrldoit Jeff Bergman does a beautiful job impersonating the great Alan Reed. The other voices are acceptable. The animation was impossibly crude and looked more like Ren and Stimpy. Of course some of the usual continuity errors were there. On the original series, a running gag was, no one knew what Barney did for a living. Here, he is briefly shown working with Fred at the quarry (similar to the comic strip).I liked the idea of an adult theme. While kids watched this show in the beginning (I was one of them), it was rightly billed as the first adult cartoon show. Having Fred and Wilma act cruel to each other has more in common with today's immature couples than with the characters on the series. Even Ralph and Alice on the Honeymooners (a series superficially similar to this) wouldn't act in a deliberately hurtful manner. The truth is that they are a match and can take each other for granted, but this is too much. The basic core of decency behind the satire in the series is gone. There are moments, but just moments. I'm glad that the late great Jean Vander Pyl didn't live to see this. A lot of sensitivity to the characters could have saved this movie. Unfortunately, I do not have high hopes with regard to Seth MacFarlane's venture either. Too bad.
bobbyrayjenkins Having corresponded with a former employee of Hanna Barbera who believes "On The Rocks" was a slap in the face to Hanna Barbera and the very soul of everything Flintstones I have a lot to say about Craig Kellmans' fresh old style. I absolutely LOVE everything about it! This cartoon breathes life back in to what had gradually become soft and round and made for the kiddies. The Flintstones is for everyone not just the targets of merchandising.To the nay sayers who feel this version of the Flintstones was too scary to make money I say it could take The Flintstones through the next fifty years at least! It rocks!
titojermaine I only saw this once on Cartoon Network. I couldn't find it on DVD/VHS anywhere and it doesn't look like Cartoon Network has any intentions of playing it again. (Hopefully I'm wrong on both accounts.) This was actually a hilarious and more adult version of the Flintstones. The humor has been updated to a more modern style. However, it is a bit more "real" than the old cartoon series, so it may not be for everyone. It's be a few years since this cartoon movie came on, so I unfortunately don't remember enough about it to give a synopsis of the story. The animation is a little bit different from the original, but that's to be expected. I believe the creator of Ren & Stimpy was the producer of this cartoon, so it has that kind of appearance and humor. (I may be wrong about that though.)
weir_track FUNNY! I don't know what was the best part? The voices were cast perfectly. The style of animation looked almost like the original episodes. The dialogue was incredible. Fred comes home and goes straight to the toilet. It was comic genius. Any one who see's this will try to find out when it will be on again just so they can tape it. I can't wait to get another chance to watch it. YABBA-DABBA-DOO!
