    Columbia Pictures) to develop a prime-time animated series. They worked out the concept of parodying current situation comedies, especially The Honeymooners and Father Knows Best, with the twist of setting them in a different historical era. Cartoonists Dan Gordon and Bill Benedict had the idea to use a Stone Age setting (although the Fleischer Studios pro- duced a similar series of Stone Age Cartoons back in 1940). The concept was bought by ABC, and premiered Sept. 30, 1960. Voiced by Alan Reed, Jr. (Fred Flintstone), Mel Blanc (Barney Rubble), Jean VanderPyl (Wilma Flintstone) and veteran actress Bea Benaderet (Betty Rubble), The Flintstones finished the season in the Nielsen ratings’ top 20, and won a number of industry awards, including the Golden Globe, and an [email protected] Emmy nomination for best comedy series of 1960-61. A clear appeal of the series lays in its parody of sitcom for- mula plots, and there are elements of satire in the way modern consumer conveniences are turned into sight gags. One of the show’s favorite gags was to have cameos by Stone Age versions of modern celebrities (Ann Margrock, Stony Curtis, etc.). The most popular gimmick was Wilma’s pregnancy, ending with the February 1963 “birth” of their little girl, Pebbles. The next season the Rubbles adopted Bamm-Bamm, a little boy of incredible strength and a one- word vocabulary. By the fifth and sixth seasons, the show began to use more storylines aimed at kids, with new neighbors the Grue- somes (a spin on The Munsters and The Addams Family), and magical space alien The Great Gazoo (Harvey Korman).

In this fantasy version of the past, dinosaurs, saber-toothed cats, woolly mammoths, and other long-extinct animals co- exist with cavemen. Like their mid-20th century counterparts, these cavemen listen to records, live in split-level homes, and eat out at restaurants, yet their technology is made entirely from pre-industrial materials and largely powered through the use of animals.

Often the "prehistoric" analog to a modern machine uses an animal.[6] For example, when a character takes photographs with aninstant camera, inside the camera box, a bird carves the picture on a stone tablet with its beak. In a running gag, the animal powering such technology would frequently break the fourth wall, look directly into the camera at the audience and offer a mild complaint about his job.

  • The Flintstones Chris Pisar
    Etched in Stone Journalistic Portrayals and the Prevalence of Media in a Town Called Bedrock Chris W. Pisar Etched in Stone: Journalistic Portrayals and the Prevalence of Media in a Town Called Bedrock Pisar 2 Abstract This article examines the animated, primetime comedy The Flintstones and how its portrayal of the news media affects the way people, especially children, view journalists. The research will focus on the portrayals of journalists throughout the show’s run. This article also will look at the prevalence of the media, such as newspapers, radio, and television, in the series and how this affects how people think the media function in the real world. With television consumption at an all-time high (the average American watches four hours of television a day)1, the residual effects of the way the media and journalists are portrayed on television, including cartoons, becomes increasingly important. By understanding the way journalists are portrayed in cartoons, we can better understand the longtime impact on children, the primary target audience of The Flintstones. I hypothesize that the way the news media are portrayed and the prevalence of the media in the series affect the way audiences view the media and journalists in reality. Introduction Television was introduced in the United States back in the 1930s, but it wasn’t until 1948-49 that “the explosion of sets into the American marketplace” took place.2 The typical household had one set and used television as a family activity.3 Now, two-thirds of the nation’s population has three or more TV sets in their home.4 This has caused watching television to become an isolated activity rather than a family activity like it had been in the past.
