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 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 hidden TARDIS pads which, when built and used in conjunction with the Doctor's TARDIS, will send the player to one of several secret areas. One such pad, located within The Simpsons-based level, Meltdown in Sector 7-G, will send the player to an area based on the Flintstones' family home.

Connections

The 2000 live-action film adaptation, The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas, starred two actors who would both go on to guest star in series 11 of Doctor Who: Mark Addy, who played Greston Paltraki in The Battle of Ranskoor Av Kolos, put on an American accent to play Fred, while Alan Cumming, who played King James I in The Witchfinders, played The Great Gazoo.

Frank Welker has also voiced various characters throughout the franchise's history including, for a while, being the primary voices of Barney and Dino.

The series was aired in the United Kingdom on BBC channels.
