Flintstones, The: Prime-Time Specials Collection - Volume 1 DVD Review
Synopsis: Following a spate of Saturday morning spin-offs, America’s favorite Stone Age family returned to network prime-time with a full slate of hysterical pre-historical specials – no quitting time for Fred! In The Flintstones Meet Rockula and Frankenstone, the Flintstones and the Rubbles travel to fear-fraught Rockysylvania thanks to a big game show win. Fred and Barney soon stumble upon – and awaken – the legendary Frankenstone Monster, who promptly revives his vampiric master, Rockula. When Rockula falls head over batwings for Wilma, will Fred end up having an undead-old time? Flintstones Little Big League sees Fred and Barney facing off as opposing Little League coaches while Bamm-Bamm and Pebbles duel across the diamond. Swept up by competitiveness and paternal pride, their friendship ends up in the dug-out doghouse. Meanwhile, a cop, a judge and Mr. Slate are all putting pressure on Fred to win at all costs – what’s a cavedad to do?
Review: The Warner Archive has brought us all kinds of great and rather obscure animated features, tv series and tv specials. This time, they're bringing us some fantastic Halloween themed specials from later Flintstones TV spots. These late 1970s TV specials feature an older Pebbles and Bam Bam. The specials are both fantastic and certainly up to par with what you expect from the Flintstones show. It was great to get our mits on this DVD, because I was just being born when these hit the air. Thats one of the beauties of these online exclusive production on demand releases is that you can get your hands on really obsure stuff for your collection. The kids LOVED these and so did we! This one is a must for any Flintstones fan!
