The Rubbles Stay With The Flintstones

[Jimmy_the_Gent4 · 2 November 2021]

Barney's house is flooded, so Fred invites he and Betty to stay in his house until it's repaired.

A funny episode. A good scene at the beginning takes place in a car wash. Wilma thinks Fred and Barney will be fighting if they live together. The guys try to be extra nice to each other. Many funny scenes as Fred gets fed up with Barney.

You never know people until you live with them

One of the all time funniest episodes. The trouble starts when there is a leak in the Rubbles' kitchen sink. Fred tries to fix the leak, which only leads to a big flood. Barney and Betty have to leave their house for about a week, so Fred invites them to stay with he and Wilma. The women assume (correctly) that Fred and Barney will start fighting. All kinds of conflicts ensue. The best is when Fred is expecting a phone call from his boss, and Barney has the phone off the hook. Barney can't concentrate on his reading, if the phone starts ringing. Fred's reaction: "You little pipsqueak, I will concentrate on tearing you apart!" The ending of this episode is great. Wilma and Betty start arguing, because of "what Barney did." Fred and Barney hear this, and start laughing hysterically. The women also start laughing, and they all go out "for a dino burger." This is a cartoon, but absolutely relatable to real life. There can be misadventures and arguments, but people who are true friends will always stay friends. Again, one of the best Flintstones episodes.
