Dang it Soundgod I should know this. I studied all cartoons and their history (some life I have huh?). I know that the Fleischers were with Paramount for an extremely looooooong time. When and where they changed hands I don't know. But Universal has a history of picking up other characters/franchises over the years. I.E. Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, who they just gave back to Disney after 78 years. Also thanks to corporations and companies constantly being sold or merged into Universal's family, and Univeral is the largest of them all (for what all Universal owns I mean) it's extremely easy to get lost and confused. But I gotta say DANG that was great spill you typed on who is what and where in the Universal family.

What a horrible idea. The Flintstones were so funny the last time we were there. We had a great time with them. And I gotta tell ya, Lucy & Rickey, and Zorro just seems pretty darn boring to me...

I agree.
Popeye and Olive Oyl were really fun also.. I had a henna done at Morocco and Popeye was comparing my tattoo to his.
And my cousin's girlfriend had her belly button pierced and Popeye cracked jokes about her having an anchor in her stomach.


I really don't see how the newer characters could do this.
