The Flintstones is an American animated television franchise from Hanna-Barbera that began with the original animated sitcom of the same name on 30 September 1960. The series revolves around the titular "modern Stone Age family", consisting of husband and wife Fred and Wilma, as well as their next door neighbours, Barney and {w|Wilma Rubble}}, and their lives in the town of Bedrock.
The franchise gained a single, explicit connection to the Doctor Who universe through the mass-crossover video game, LEGO Dimensions, in the form of in-game content that can only be accessed through the use of certain Doctor Who elements. Located throughout the game are three hidden TARDIS travel panels which, when built and used in conjunction with the Doctor's TARDIS, will send the player to one of three exclusive secret areas. One such panel, located within The Simpsons-based level, Meltdown in Sector 7-G, will send the player to an area based on the Flintstones' family home.
