The Flintstones were the modern Stone Age family. Residing in Bedrock, Fred Flintstone worked an unsatisfying quarry job, but returned home to lovely wife Wilma and eventually daughter Pebbles. Fred, a big fan of golf and bowling, also enjoyed bullying neighbor Barney Rubble, while Barney's saucy wife Betty was best friends with Wilma. During the show's run, Barney and Betty would adopt an unnaturally strong son, Bamm-Bamm, who would become friends with little Pebbles. "The Flintstones," heavily inspired by "The Honeymooners," convinced a generation of children that dinosaurs and humans occupied the planet at the same time.

TIME Staff TIME Magazine 01/30/2019
The Hanna-Barbera shop is efficient but unconventional. Go to Full Review Anna Pickard Guardian 10/31/2018
The realness of the relationships and relatability of the characters was designed to appeal to a mature (or semi-mature) sensibility - an influence that can be seen in generations of cartoon families to follow. Go to Full Review Emily St. James AV Club 10/31/2018
The Flintstones, just like every other Hanna-Barbera cartoon of the era, works enormously well as a kind of indoctrination for kids into sitcom tropes. Go to Full Review Filip Vukcevic IGN Movies 10/31/2018
This is a classic show, and while it may not be all that entertaining by today's standards, it is a major achievement in animation history and something that's certainly better than the kid's cartoons of today. Go to Full Review Daniel Kurland Den of Geek 10/31/2018
The show operates as a family sitcom that depicts zany adventures intersecting with the normalcy of married life. It just also happens to have tiny dinosaurs functioning as garbage disposals or wooly mammoths being a must-have for any bathroom. Go to Full Review Taran Bassi metro.co.uk 10/31/2018
All you ever wanted was a shirt like Fred's and hair like Wilma's. If only your parents let you have a pet dinosaur, then your life would have been way easier. Sigh. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
