The Flintstone Comedy Show is an American animated comedy TV series produced by Hanna-Barbera for NBC. It ran from 1980 to 1981, airing 18 episodes. It is a spin-off of The Flintstones, and the fifth incarnation of the Flintstones franchise. In Europe, it was renamed Flintstone Frolics.
The series consisted of six segments: a regular type of story of the Flintstones and Rubbles in The Flintstone Family Adventures; Fred and Barney join the police force in Bedrock Cops; best friends Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm, with pet Dino, investigate haunted places in Bedrock in Pebbles, Dino and Bamm-Bamm; in Captain Caveman, Wilma and Betty become reporters at The Daily Granite, where prehistoric superhero, Captain Caveman, secretly works as an office boy; and finally the monster family, the Frankenstones, get their own show in The Frankenstones.
The designs of Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm depicts them younger-looking (while their friends are kept the same), making the series look like it was set before The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show.
