#23

THE FLINTSTONES (#20 in 2013) 

It was designed to be a cartoon version of The Honeymooners … and since its debut in 1960, I don’t think its EVER been off the air! 

(A cartoon series airing in Prime Time?!?! It was UNHEARD of at the time … so people tuned in just to see what all the fuss was about.) 

But the truth is, this show was written just as much for adults ... yet the kids could still enjoy all of the colorful sights. 

They also had a way of always making “The Stone Age” feel somewhat contemporary … 

And who can forget the nationwide contest to name the new babies in the Flintstone and Rubble families?!?! 

(Pebbles and Bam Bam, of course!!!) 

And of course us guys loved the “Who was hotter: Wilma or Betty” thing, too! (Betty, of course ... but we forgot ALL about that during the Ann-Margrock episode!) 

It finished at #20 in 2013 … so it's down just a little bit this time around … 

but still a classic TV Tune that nearly everyone can sing along with. 

(Can I get a Yabba-Dabba-Doo???)
