The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show - The Complete Series

I was a little too young to watch the original animated "The Flintstones," which was first run on ABC from 1960-1966. Of course, I was aware of "The Flintstones" and watched it in heavily syndicated reruns. "The Pebbles And Bamm-Bamm Show," the delightful 16 Episode Saturday morning sequel, first ran on CBS in 1971 when I was about five or six years old. THIS show is part of my Saturday morning memories! On "The Flintstones", Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm were babies, and I never cared much for babies or children in shows, even when I was a child. For their own self-titled show, Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm are teenagers. The title characters are excellently voiced by Sally Struthers ("All In The Family") and Jay North ("Dennis The Menace"). They hang out with a new gang of teenage friends, including The Bronto Bunch Motorcycle Gang, astrologically-inclined Wiggy, hippie Penny, inventor Moonrock, snobby Cindy and Fabian, and Bad Luck Schleprock ("Hi, everybody, miserable day, isn't it... wowsie, wowsie, woo-woo!"). Fred, Barney, Wilma, Betty, and Mr. Slate return, but Dino The Dinasour is noticeably absent. He is replaced here by Bamm-Bamm's pet Snoots and Pebbles' pet elephant Wooley, who, in one episode, flies exactly like Disney's Dumbo. Watching this series again after SO MANY years, I realized that "Pebbles And Bamm-Bamm" plots are basically recycled from "I Love Lucy." It is basically bedlam in Bedrock when Pebbles gets ideas in her head. But Pebbles is enthusiastic, energetic, and good-hearted. She's not scatterbrained like Lucy is, but Bamm-Bamm humorously and truthfully says, "You've got rocks in your head, Pebbles...when Pebbles makes up her mind, it's a state of mind over matter. Pebbles makes up her mind and NOTHING else matters." My most vivid memory of the series is actually the series' BEST episode. In "The Golden Voice," Pebbles discovers that Bamm-Bamm has a beautiful singing voice when he's in the shower. For this episode, he repeatedly sings the phrase, "Don't rock now, because our love has grown stone cold." Outside of the shower, his singing is terrible. Pebbles takes him to see Madame Fortismo, who turns him into a vocal freak sensation. In other memorable episodes, Pebbles gets involved in football and baseball; although she knows absolutely nothing about either sport, Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm become Grand Prix race car drivers in order to retrieve a special fuel for Fred and Barney, and chaos reigns when Pebbles becomes honorary mayor of Bedrock for one week. I also seem to recall a TV Special when Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm got married and had a baby of their own. That would make Fred, Barney, Wilma, and Betty grandparents! I don't need to go into that. I hope you love and enjoy "The Pebbles And Bamm-Bamm Show" as much as I do!

Firstly i was happy that this dvd was able to play on my region 4 player, as one out of the three dvds I bought did not. Secondly I was very impressed with the artwork on the cover, front and back and inside. Very well done with all the main characters and a lot of support characters appearing. It's a shame they are not going to such effort with the newer releases. To my surprise the Gruesomes also appeared on the inside cover. I had completley forgotten that, as well as their two appearances on The Flintstones, they had a third appearance on The Pebbles and Bamm Show. I havn't gotten up to their episode yet, but am looking forward to it. This was the first time I have seen The Pebbles and Bamm Bamm show since it was on tv in the early 70s. I wasn't dissapointed it was great colourful fun with the five main gang plus a large cast of supporting characters. As well as being the first Flinstones spin off, in my opinion, it was also the the best. They really should loop it in with The Flinstones when they show reruns. When I first saw this show I was about 5 or 6, I only had a very vague memory of watching The Flinstones with my parents. When The Flintstones finally came back to Aussie tv in 1975, six o clock week nights, I remember waiting what seemed like an eternity to see Pebbles and Bamm Bamm appear. It was - Pebbles isn't born until near the end of the 3rd season and Bamm Bamm is introduced in the fourth. But in this delightful show, you don't have to wait.

"The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show" is an animated 1971 Hanna-Barbera spin-off of the 1960's "The Flintstones" television series that follows the comedy adventures of teen-age Pebbles Flintstone and Bamm-Bamm Rubble. In this series, their famed parents (Fred and Wilma Flintstone and Barney and Betty Rubble) are back in supporting roles, along with a new cast of stone-age teenagers. Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm's Archie-inspired friends are more than a little unique and include astrologically obsessed Wiggy Rockstone, down-to-earth Penny Pillar, and brainy Moonrock Crater. The Bronto Bunch (Bronto, Noodles, Stub, and Zonk) alternates between functioning as a bothersome motorcycle gang and much-needed allies, while Cindy Curbstone and Fabian Fabquartz fill the role of Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm's conceited rivals. Schleprock ("Wowzie Wowzie Woo Woo!") is the consistent harbinger of bad luck. Pebbles' wooly mammoth Wooly and Bamm-Bamm's pet brontosaurus Snoots round out the cast. Comedy reigns throughout all 16 episodes - - from simple word play to slapstick and satire. While Pebbles' intentions are always good, her definite knack for misinterpreting a situation often gets her and her friends into all sorts of trouble. She definitely takes after her father! Four 8-minute bonus "Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm" episodes from the 1972 "The Flintstones Comedy Hour" round out this two-disc set. The smooth animation and clever storylines make this one of the best animated series ever created and produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. Don't miss your opportunity to own it! Yabba-Dabba-Doosie!!

tres bien

I’m a fan of Hanna-Barbera Productions, Inc. and this going into my library set of DVDs of thier shows. This one isn’t the classic but will reach classic status soon. The package came in flat is awesome because the disc isn’t bent in any way. The individual wrapped kept it nicely sealed.

Le boîtier est cassé sur le dessus mais les dvds sont intacts. Reçu le paquet très rapidement, même avant la date suggérée. Merci !!

I don’t dislike anything I love this series and cheaper than in stores

Came within time. Great!

I really enjoyed this DVD, i didnt even know it existed. I also bought the Flintstones Kids when Fred, Barney etc were kids.

Love it, love it, love it. Grow up with the Flintstones. Never new that there was a cartoon called Pebbles and Bam, Bam. So since I already of the Flintstones it only made sense to buy this too.
