First announced in 2011, Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane's Flintstones reboot was already considered "on life support" just a year later. But in a recent Reddit AMA, MacFarlane revealed the reason why he couldn't get the reboot off the ground: he simply couldn't differentiate Fred Flintstone from Family Guy's Peter Griffin.

Comment from discussion I am Seth MacFarlane. Back for a new and better go at this AMA.

Of course, being unable to do anything but basically make more Family Guy hasn't stopped MacFarlane from making American Dad, The Cleveland Show, Ted, Ted 2, A Million Ways To Die In The West, or The Orville. But when it came to rebooting The Flintstones, it seems, it was a Family Guy too far.

And so, Jude Terror has moved on to a more important mission: turning Bleeding Cool into a pro wrestling dirt sheet!
