A Flintstone Christmas

When Santa Claus hurts his ankle delivering presents to his house, can Fred Flintstone substitute? Sure! It’s a Flintstone Christmas!

In short, A Flintstone Christmas is a short, funny Flintstone cartoon. It’s not deep, and it’s not meant to be. It is funny and enjoyable, however. There’s a lot of the normal Fred and Barney interactions, such as:

Barney Rubble: [Fred hangs up an ornament] I wouldn’t hang it there, Fred.
Fred Flintstone: ‘I wouldn’t hang it there, Fred’, why not? [tree starts falling]
Barney Rubble: Don’t look now but here comes the ‘why not?’ [tree falls on Fred]
Barney Rubble: Quick thinking, Fred, you broke the tree’s fall.
Fred Flintstone: Barney, get me out of here!
