This may be old news, but I found this in yesterday's NY Daily News:

Animators at the Cartoon Network have developed a short sketch called "The Sopranstones," which blends Tony Soprano, from the HBO series, with Fred Flinstone.

The sketch is expected to air on the upcoming series "Harvey Birdman, Attorney-at-Law," an updated version of the Hanna-Barbera classic about a lawyer who argues cases for superheroes.

"When we looked at 'The Sopranos' and 'The Flinstones,' there were just so many similarities between Tony Soprano and Fred," said series co-creator Erik Richter. "They both work in construction, their wives both have diamond rings and furs. It was a complete fit."

I wonder if they'll leave in the racism, graphic violence, and profanity.

I wonder why they mentioned it now. Maybe it's airing sooner than July.

This would've worked better with Top Cat. :p

Had Mr. Richter done his research, he would have realized that Tony S. doesn't work in construction, but in garbage removal. Lets hope he did the rest of his research for the series with a little more diligents.

Hey Redneck! toss that cookie up here. Sgt. Bilko rocked.

Actually Top Cat is mainly based on a live action sitcom called the Phil Silvers show. Bilko! Now if you know what I'm talking about you get a cookie.
