It’s Yabba Dabba Doo time! With Insight Editions’ The Flintstones, fans can celebrate more than 45 years of everyone’s favorite Neolithic-American family and own a piece of cartoon prehistoria at the same time. First aired in 1960, The Flintstones proved that cartoons were more than just a children’s medium. Combining a witty, Honeymooners-esque storyline with an animated series, Hanna-Barbera created a winning formula that appealed to parents and children alike. Week after week, families would tune in to the adventures of a “Modern Stone-Age Family” with its wooly mammoth water heater and housebroken Snorkasauras named Dino. And in these pages, readers can once again join Fred, Barney, Betty, and Wilma, whether it’s for bowling night in Bedrock, a meeting of the Loyal Order of Water Buffalos, or even a trip to Hollyrock on a pterodactyl “airplane.” Funny and informative, this mini-history reveals the story behind a classic and groundbreaking cartoon series.
