Bernard "Barney" Rubble is a caveman and the secondary character of the Flintstones animated franchise. His voice was originated by Mel Blanc (not counting Daws Butler in the pilot pitch).
Barney is the husband of Betty, and the best friend and nextdoor neighbor of Fred Flintstone. In the beginning, Barney's source of income was something of a mystery, although he was shown to be unable to hold a permanent job. In later incarnations, Barney was given the same job as Fred, working as a construction worker for Mr. Slate.
Unable to conceive children, Barney and Betty adopted an infant son, Bamm-Bamm Rubble.
Character description
Barney is a short caveman with beard stubble, blonde hair, and thick eyebrows. His eyes are depicted as either two dark circular outlines (as seen in seasons one to five of The Flintstones) or two black dots (as in the show's sixth season and some subsequent media). He usually wears a ragged, brown loincloth with an X-shaped shoelace on the top.
As a friend to Fred, Barney spends most of his days getting caught up in his constant get-rich schemes. He is generally good-natured (perhaps more so than Fred) and likes to crack up a little roast on his best pal. He is also childlike, respectful, understanding, and a person with a big heart.
Barney is a very devoted husband. In spite of the frequent troubles he faces, he takes good care of both his wife Betty and their son Bamm-Bamm.
