The Flintstones Comedy Hour

“The Flintstones Comedy Hour” – 1972


Following the huge success of the 1960s series working class heroes of prehistoric America in the Flintsones, the decision was made to make it like a variety TV show. The hour was filled with Flinstone cartoons, but also Fred and Barney playing to the camera and introducing. Of course there was no camera, was there?

70’s Televison

What an amazing piece of kit our telly was. Can you imagine having to change channel by turning a knob to tune in BBC2 and forever getting up to realign the aerial and contrast, and the only way to stop the picture from rolling was to give the set a good thump? Do you remember that we only have three channels to watch? Thinking about it, the conversation was better at school next day as everyone seemed to be watching the same thing unlike nowadays where we have too much choice. Aye, the quality of programmes seem to have dwindled when you think back to what we had in our days.
