The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show

What’s the Story?

Reviewed by KJ Dell Antonia

THE PEBBLES AND BAMM-BAMM SHOW, which originally aired from 1971-76, is a spin-off of the show about everyone's first favorite cartoon family, the Flintstones. Pebbles Flintstone (voiced by Sally Struthers) and Bamm-Bamm Rubble (Jay North), along with a cohort of odd friends and sidekicks, attend Bedrock High. Their adventures generally center around Pebbles' crazy schemes and tend to mix a Happy Days sensibility into the prehistoric world.

Is It Any Good?

Unlike many spin-offs, Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm pretty much follows in the footsteps of its parent show. The episodes are just as thoughtfully written, and the plots -- though they might seem overused these days -- were original at the time and are still fun to watch. And younger kids will enjoy the pratfalls and the silly prehistoric gadgets, even if they have trouble following the story.
