A few sample questions
1. What was Fred Flintstone's famous exclamation of joy on The Flintstones?
Answer: Yabba-Dabba-Doo!
"Yabba-Dabba-Doo!" was Fred Flintstone's signature cry of delight throughout the show's run on ABC from 1960 to 1966 — one of the most recognizable catchphrases in cartoon history.
2. Before starting their own studio in 1957, William Hanna and Joseph Barbera were famous for creating which beloved cartoon duo at MGM?
Answer: Tom and Jerry
Hanna and Barbera created Tom and Jerry at MGM beginning in 1940, winning seven Academy Awards for the series before MGM shut down its animation unit and the pair founded their own studio.
3. In what fictional prehistoric city did the Flintstone family make their home?
Answer: Bedrock
The Flintstones lived in Bedrock, a Stone Age city where prehistoric people enjoyed surprisingly modern conveniences — all cleverly powered by animals and rocks rather than electricity.
4. The Flintstones premiered in 1960 as America's first prime-time animated series. Which television network originally broadcast it?
Answer: ABC
The Flintstones premiered on ABC on September 30, 1960, making history as the first animated series to air in prime time on a major American network — a spot usually reserved for live-action comedies and dramas.
5. Which actress provided the voice of Wilma Flintstone throughout the original series and many later Flintstones specials?
Answer: Jean Vander Pyl
Jean Vander Pyl gave Wilma Flintstone her warm, distinctive voice from the very first episode in 1960 through decades of follow-up specials — one of the longest-running voice performances in animation history.
Things you'll learn along the way
- Barney Rubble was Fred's cheerful and loyal next-door neighbor — and the role was a perfect fit for Mel Blanc, who was already the most celebrated voice actor in Hollywood thanks to his work on Bugs Bunny and other Warner Bros. characters.
- Boo-Boo Bear was Yogi's smaller, more timid sidekick who constantly warned Yogi that the park ranger "wouldn't like it" whenever Yogi hatched one of his schemes to steal picnic baskets from park visitors.
- Dino was the Flintstones' purple pet dinosaur who behaved exactly like a loyal family dog — bounding to the door each evening to knock Fred down and lick his face, much to Wilma's amusement.
