Meet The Flintstones

They’re the Modern Stone Age Family

Based on the cast of The Honeymooners, the Flintstones and Rubbles were the first cartoon characters created specifically for primetime audiences. Though it was broadcast in black-and-white for the first two seasons, The Flintstones had the distinction of being ABC’s first series televised in color.

It was also the first animated series in which a lead character became pregnant. There were many storylines covering Wilma’s pregnancy and Fred’s adjustment to being a father. Audiences welcomed Pebbles on February 22, 10,000 B.C. at 8pm. She weighed 6 pounds, 12 ounces.

The Flintstones was the most financially successful animated series for more than three decades. The Modern Stone Age classic was ultimately unseated by another wildly popular cartoon family, The Simpsons.

Just a Few Fun Facts About The Flintstones

In the opening credits from the first season, a sign indicates that the population of Bedrock is 2,500.

Fred’s four dino-cranes at the quarry were named Mildred, Lulu Belle, Rocky, and Hugo.

The Flintstone’s first child was supposed to be a boy, but a Hanna-Barbera marketing department executive convinced them to change it to a girl. Why? Because girl dolls were a bigger seller than boy dolls.
