Pebbles' birth in The Flintstones: The Blessed Event (1963) was the 84th and center of the 167 episodes. There are 83 episodes before and 83 episodes after.

To capitalize on the then-current craze of "ghoul comedies" such as The Addams Family (1964) and The Munsters (1964), the Gruesomes (Weirdly, his wife Creepella and their son Gobby) were introduced in the fifth season as the Flintstones' new neighbors. But they only appeared in two episodes. They were The Flintstones: The Gruesomes (1964) and The Flintstones: The Hatrocks and the Gruesomes (1965).

"The Swimming Pool"was the first episode made,but not the first one aired.This was because William Hanna and Joseph Barbera felt that Fred and Barney's quarreling throughout most of the episode wasn't a good way to begin a series. Therefor the second episode of the series "The Flintstone Flyer" was the first one to air. The former episode was the third one aired.

All throughout the series, the cars are run by foot. If this is the case, why do the gas stations exist?

Fred and Barney's boss's name keeps changing from George Slate to George Granite and back throughout the first season.

In numerous episodes throughout the series, the capacity of passengers in both Fred and Barney's cars changes back and forth from seating two passengers to four passengers.

Fred Flintstone: [while reading from an issue of "Weird Detective" magazine] Hmmmm, here's the "Crook of the Month" - "Fifteen thousand reward for information leading to apprehension of Albert Bonehart - wanted for questioning in disappearance of three former wives - Bonehart's fourth wife was last seen in a railroad station - in a valise, a ladies hat box and an executive's brief case." Well, that's one way of sending your wife to the country.

Fred Flintstone: [bangs on the door after being locked out by the cat] WILMA!

Barney Rubble: Hey, you're too fat, Fred!
