The Flintstones/YMMV

• Alien Scrappy: The Great Gazoo.
• Alternate Character Interpretation: A few viewers have speculated that the Flintstones are actually a Post-Apocalyptic society using what it can to recreate the destroyed technology.
• Crowning Moment of Awesome: Fred and Barney's "A Judo Chop Chop" chase with Dr. Sinister.
• Crowning Music of Awesome: this song form the video game.
• Crowning Moment of Funny:
  • "Whose baby is that? What's your angle? I'll buy that."
  • Female spy, to Fred and Barney: "Are you two married?" Barney: "No, we're just good friends."
• Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: The ending to "Groom Gloom".
• Ear Worm: The aforementioned theme song.
• Jumping the Shark: The introduction of the Great Gazoo, probably.
• Memetic Mutation: "Betty's not a vitamin"
  • The Flintstones cigarette ads
• Mondegreen: "How do they always manage to bollix things up, Betty?" Brits aren't familiar with the word bollix and mishear it as bollocks, resulting in the word getting bleeped out on British TV.
• Seasonal Rot: After the first two or three years of the original series.
• Tear Jerker: The birth of Pebbles.
• What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?: The series was a primetime sitcom that was never geared towards only children, as most of the situations and jokes were way over the heads of most young'uns. Later merchandise and spinoffs decided to go against that mindset, however.
  • Hence the sponsorship by Winston's Cigarettes.
• What the Hell, Casting Agency?: Rosie O'Donnell played Betty in the live-action movie, of all people who had to be miscast.
  • She was apparently given the part because of her perfect imitation of Betty's giggle. The real "WTH" goes to Elizabeth Taylor being cast as Wilma's mother.
