'The Flintstones' cartoon turns 50



Yabba dabba doo, Happy 50 to you!

As a kid, and as an adult, I still love the old cartoons. I believe this was the first cartoon to play on prime time TV. I can still remember watching it on our old black and white set. It reminds me(as so many things do) of a simpler time. Finding out later that The Flinstones was an homage to one of my other all time favorite shows, The Honeymooners, only made the show more endearing to me. I stil hear Fred's voice im my head on those days when I have to go into the office and it's quitting time. "Yabba dabba doo!" Pretty much says it all. Thank you Hanna and Barbera.
