Are his kids old enough to have watched the Flintstones when they were kids?

[–] optissima@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 week ago

No this was what was leveraged at him as a child.

His daughter is a year younger than me, I definitely recall the Flintstones and Jetsons growing up, definitely recall watching The Jetsons Meet the Flinstones on tape a bunch when I was like 5, that came out a few years before I was born.

There was also that live action one with Rick Moranis, John Goodman and Rosie O'Donnell in 94, would have been somewhat relevant.

fair enough, these days people watch the flintstones for an escapist utopian fantasy of finding a job and affording a house.
