Storyline
This popular animated television cartoon featured two Stone Age families, the Flintstones and their neighbors, the Rubbles. Much of the humor was based on its comic portrayals of modern conveniences, reinterpreted using Stone Age 'technology.' Most notably were their cars, complete with absence of floorboards to allow them to be 'foot-powered.' Written by Tad Dibbern <DIBBERN_D@a1.mscf.upenn.edu>

Trivia
For a full season after Mel Blanc's near-fatal automobile accident in 1961-1962, the show was taped in his bedroom where he lay in a full-body cast. Daws Butler filled in as the voice of Barney for five episodes. Executive Producer Joseph Barbera has said that as many as 16 people crowded into Blanc's bedroom. The episodes which feature Butler as Barney: episode 2.1 "The Hit Songwriters" (15 September 1961) episode 2.2 "Droop Along Flintstone" (22 September 1961) episode 2.5 "Fred Flintstone Woos Again" (13 October 1961) episode 2.6 "The Rock Quarry Story" (20 October 1961) episode 2.9 "The Little White Lie" (10 November 1961) See more »Goofs
Plot holes: All throughout the series, the cars are run by foot. If this is the case, why do the gas stations exist? See more »Quotes
