That takes place a eons before the bronze age
People can fall INTO slavery after years of not being slaved.
who says blax are people?
God does
Which one? Zeus? Horus? Vishnu?
You realize modern slavery exists and plenty of white people are enslaved
More like slavery hasn't happen yet.

This is so cartoony, wheres this from? Also, I think it's hilarious they gave the rabbi a hook nose
Flintstones Family Christmas
one if the last Flintstones media before early CN and William Hanna’s death.
Huh, you live and learn. Though unless my memory is betraying me, Fred, Wilma et al have had some wrinkle reduction surgery there.
Why aren't the parents not aged at all, Wilma and Betty literally look like they're about the same age as Bebbles.
*Pebbles
Women from the Stone Age age like fine wine.
Need to keep them recognizable. Also, less new character models means less thinking when it comes to animation.
Well that explains Dragon Ball Super.
Microplastics hadn't been invented yet, so humans were still immortal and able to shape their appearance at will

Bruh they had kids at 12-18. Shes no more then 40 tops.

Is that spin-off even canon?
About as cannon as Kamp Koral is to SpongeBob.
HB were involved as executive producer but looks like they stopped giving a shit after the 70s
Neither kid inherited red or black hair, one kid got Bam Bam's adopted dad's hair colour. Was blonde and white just that dominant in the way before times?
>Neither kid inherited red hair
The red and white haired kids are Bam Bam & Pebble's. The blonde kid is adopted.
Oh shit, I didn't even see that other kid shoved in the coner like they're ashamed of it.
Why are the men's feet so chunky and gross looking?
I can't get my rocks off to it at all
Because they're feet, anon.
How do you expect their feet to look like after driving around with the whole family.

It was to also help reinforce the point of how different Stoney design is, compared to the other Flintstones characters. This is what a kid his age looked like in the original show.
Oh shit it's the newspaper boy that pissed off Fred for being good at everything and always hitting him with the morning paper which is a rock slab. Of course when Bam Bam was introduced he wasn't needed anymore.
every kid in the 90's just looked like that
>every kid in the 90's just looked like that
I concede that greentext is a fair point.

Is this the germanic equivalent of blackface?
Is it possible to have a cartoon with a blonde withie male protagonist anymore?
If he's competent, chad and straight, probably not.
Yeah, if you get the French or Japanese to make it.
There was an episode where a caveman fricks his Mom actually.
Got any further info on this?
I need it for important research.
wow

Flintstones is one of the most moronic shows, glad it got reduced to a cereal brand
and a vargskelethor meme
Or it hadn't happened yet, please think before opening that wiener holster you call a mouth.
Is The Flintstones good? Been meaning on binging a cartoon series.
It depends on your preferences.
The original show is an animated sitcom where Fred, more times than not, ropes Barney into scams that sink harder than titanic and rarely his plans work.
Bonus points if Wilma and Betty appear by the end and somewhat have success where Fred and Barney's plans fail.
It's fun by its own merit, given the time.
The teenage Pebbles & Bam Bam era is so so.
>The teenage Pebbles & Bam Bam era is so so.
I keep forgetting this was a thing
I remember bambam's design annoyed the hell out of me when I first saw it
skinny ass arms and giant barrel chest looked unnatural as hell
Teen Bam Bam & Pebbles were pretty much designed as Fred & Daphne. Not very inspired.
They still had this Scooby Doo knock off with them, where Bam Bam doubles as Fred's and Shaggy's roles. Dude had a Hulk level strength, but he was easily scared of "ghosts".
70% of HB's catalog after Scooby-Doo was Scooby-Doo knockoffs
>I remember bambam's design annoyed the hell out of me when I first saw it

>Teen Bam Bam & Pebbles were pretty much designed as Fred & Daphne. Not very inspired.
I thought teen bam bam was just a lazy copy of Frankenstone, just less monstrous. Like some sort of super quarter back.
Other way around. Pebbles And Bam Bam predates the Frankenstones.
there a mega at all? or somewhere else to get it all?
the original show is on tubi
I find the original series very comfy but depends if you're into family sitcoms.
If you like sitcoms.
That's literally all the cartoon is, an animated sitcom, 100%, even includes laugh tracks if I remember right. I'm probably thinking of The Jetsons, which also happens to be an animated sitcom.
It and The Jetsons are both great for that whole vibe of comparing the shows to today, though I always preferred the former because I like the gag of all their "technology" being made of stone and operated by dinosaurs and birds and such.
How would you make the Jetsons work? I feel like you could but I'm not sure how.
It worked pretty fine back then, I thought. I remember them running literal millions of reruns of it, anyway.
Problem is that if they ever did a reboot of it, there's no way they wouldn't stuff it with "nobody goes down to the surface, the toxic air is deadly because they used to use cars that run on gas and nuclear power plants filled with poison" and "can you believe we used to have racism/sexism/bigotry down there" and the show would either go with some kind of hyper-Socialism where everything is free and nobody suffers from anything and the show pulls a "Leroy learns from his class about Capitalism, the old, nasty, dirty, evil way things used to run" gag, or a "greed was awful back then [cuts to picture of man that looks suspiciously like Trump] until [brown-skinned politician woman with an obvious ethnicity and culture] had done away with all that, bringing us into the future" scene/episode, or they do the "quarter machine, but by 'quarter' they mean 'quarter million' due to inflation" thing, and none of this is intended as a joke, as half the writer staff posts constantly on Twitter about being super proud of writing this line or that and their profile is full of flags and acronyms.
A Jetsons reboot could probably work if they avoid all that and just go with the obvious gag of "here's an over-the-top future thing" like the show did with dancing scenes or with food pills that turn into a meal with a drop of water. Have a gag where George finds "oldies" and it's clearly a riff on K-pop, or have a scene where they all go on "vacation" and it's just a VR room or a holodeck. Go with an obvious episode plot like a food pill shortage where Judy has to make food "the old fashioned way" and she doesn't even know how to boil water. A plot where a competitor called "Greg's Gears" moves into town.
The Flintstones comic did that once I think. I remember someone posted a comic cover for it and it was of them taking a selfie with a "smartphone".
>Have a gag where George finds "oldies" and it's clearly a riff on K-pop
That's actually pretty funny.
>A plot where a competitor called "Greg's Gears" moves into town.
Make it Steve Fobs, who's selling holographic tele-phones.
I mean, I don't mind that vibe in Star Trek but that's because the writers didn't seem to fricking hate me and more thought that this was actually possible. The issue is with modern people doing a Star Trek thing is they cannot possibly understand the idea of an ideal future and believe dystopian shit where everything is fricked forever that they have to overcome rather than like the wacky planet of the week shit with a relatively simple philosophical/social/political quandary that gets resolved at the end of the episode.
Well that and Star Trek did it and did it right like what fifty eight years ago?
>The issue is with modern people doing a Star Trek thing is they cannot possibly understand the idea of an ideal future and believe dystopian shit where everything is fricked forever that they have to overcome
This so much, it's like nobody can even fake it so they can write it, everything has to be depressing as frick or something.
Is the Flintstones a good show? I remember getting bored by it as a kid but the few episodes I've seen as an adult were pretty good.
The pre-Pebbles seasons are pretty funny
See
It's basically the honeymooners if it was a cartoon. You probably won't like it unless you're a turbo-boomer who laughs at jokes about domestic violence.
>laughs at jokes about domestic violence.
domestic violence is pretty funny in cartoons
>Kid Fred to Grandpa
>From baby Pebbles to mom
Is the Flinstones one of the few where their lives on tv? Even Scooby Doo didn't go that far.
Close bu Flinstones kids was a spin-off and had 80's style
Also a caveman version of Charles Manson existed.
And drive-by stonings.
It didn't. Vast majority of slavery was local because transcontinental slavery was not technologically or economically feasible until relatively recent human history. There was not a "trade" in the stone ages.
Apparently evolution didn't either considering the black woman isn't a monkey.
The Black Woman is probably a homosexual Sapien with the Flintstones being either Cro Magnons or Neanderthals.
Different races shouldn't even exist yet
>Yet
Exfrickincuseme? Neanderthal and Cro Magnon diverged half a million years ago.
Species =/= Race.
>Species =/= Race.
Neanderthal and cromagnon interbred. So... what speciation argument are you making?
What a cute boy
He's Fred & Wilma's adoptive son.
Yeah, because we all know the stone age also had dinosaurs at the same time.
What if Hanna-Barbera made a Flintstones/Jetsons-type cartoon taking place during the antebellum South, with everything being done by slaves instead of animals/robots?
You fail to comprehend the most basic thing of the gist, it's the MODERN STONE-AGE family, it's not the stone age, it's the late 50's in a stone-age setting
>it's the late 50's in a stone-age setting
What can you really do with this in today's age?
rock smartphones/computers?
Thanks for the new shota suggestion anon
What I want to know is why did the Flintstones stick in the public conscious but the Jetson's didn't
Fred Flintsone: likeable, bumbling everyman living cheque to cheque while getting into hijinks causes by his own bullheadedness. Iconic supporting cast.
George Jetson: whiny, spineless lazybones with a space mansion, robot maid and handy tech. Only gets into trouble which is usually caused by his boss. Only supporting cast is his boring nice family.
There's yer math.
Even if The Jetsons are just a Flintstones knock off, but in the future, it still have its strengths.
George hadn't a Barney to rope into his shenanigans and Jane generally wasn't pointing the obvious fails of his ideas, the same way Wilma does with Fred.
More than once, George had to find ways to fix his own frick ups alone, or occasionally with a help of his family.
I that's why I have more of a soft spot for the Jetsons, when the push come, the family is fully there to help George. With the Flintstones, Fred is treated like an idiot (justified) by his own wife and friends periodically. He kinda deserves many times, but, still.
>What I want to know is why did the Flintstones stick in the public conscious but the Jetson's didn't
probably episode count. also there was a whole period where channels made shows that rural people liked. I think flinstones was part of that. Greenacres. Beverly hill billies.
I think the jetsons came closer to the space race and was less appealing to normie rural fricks.
Because the Jetsons wasn't what you think it was and it kind of bombed. There's 166 episodes from the 6 season run of the original Flintstones, around 130 of 5 spinoffs, and an assload of recut anthology minisodes that was aired in 4 of their own, and 6 collected cartoon anthology shows. The Jetsons went off the air in 1963 after 1 24 episode season. They did make exactly 41 new episodes in 1985 so they could air it in syndication. If you have a big chunk of your brain dedicated to remembering the Jetsons it's probably because your memory of cartoons starts at or after that point.
Not to say the Jetsons second issue of episodes are bad, I honestly like the Orbity seasons better since they went beyond being Flintstones in Space. With the new stuff willing to explore sci-fi concepts beyond redressing common things in the chrome future paneling and "sitcom plot in space". But by that point the Flintstones had effectively a 25 year headstart on them in the zeitgeist and were deeply saturated.
Basically, the jetsons relaunch allow them to enjoy the sucess they never had in the 60s to the point of getting a TV movie with Judy, the TV crossover with the Flinstones, and finally the 1990 movie.
But i wonder, what happened to Orbity by the time of the movie? I always tought the Gronies were meant to be related to him.
Who says the latter hasn't? For an animated sitcom that has had frick all since the 90s, The Jetsons has held up in the public consciousness shockingly well. At the very least people will get what you're talking about when you bring them up.
The Flintstones meanwhile have been carried by being food and vitamin mascots. They've always had new Flintstones content by commercials alone.
It helps that the Jetsons are still the paradigm for futurism despite tech creep pushing most of their gadgets into obsolescence. Where's my Flying car? is a perennial meme and robots in the home invariably invite comparisons with Rosie.
>Where's my Flying car?
You have no clue how much I feel this. The Jetsons may not be as big as the Flintstones but they have cool shit I want. They really should've leaned into the Futurist stuff more, I feel it would've at least left a bigger impact on the zeitgeist overall.
