This is important. As many people as possible need to contact WHV and make sure they are aware of this before they release this box set:

's The Flintstones are missing some pre-logue animation that occurs before the intro. Only a very small amount of the episodes retained it, most are missing. They contain story details so this is bad. Images are a list of episodes with this pre-logue missing.

The HD masters are on HBO Max, so unfortunately it is incredibly likely that these omissions will be carried over to the Blu-ray.

Pre-order here : The Flintstones: The Complete Series Blu-ray

The Flintstones is finally coming to Blu-ray. IGN can exclusively reveal that Warner Bros. Home Entertainment will release The Flintstones: The Complete Series on Blu-ray and Digital HD in Fall 2020.
The set will include all six seasons and 166 episodes of the original series, along with two additional animated movies - 1966's The Man Called Flintstone and 2015's The Flintstones & WWE: Stone Age Smackdown! Every episode has been remastered in HD.

Warners has yet to reveal pricing or a specific release date for the Blu-ray set, although it is expected out this fall. It's also unclear what bonus features might be included in the set. We'll have to wait and see if those infamous Winston Cigarettes ads have been remastered in HD...

For those somehow unfamiliar with Fred Flintstone and his "modern Stone Age family," the original animated series aired on ABC from 1960 to 1966. Initially a prehistoric parody of live-action sitcoms like The Honeymooners, the series gradually shifted in a more family-friendly direction and eventually spawned a multimedia empire. The Flintstones broke new ground as the first animated series to air in a primetime TV slot. It also proved to be the longest-running animated series in TV history until The Simpsons came along and broke that record five times over.

The Flintstones has enjoyed a successful syndicated run and has spawned various spinoffs and reboots over the years, some of them more odd than others. DC Comics previously turned heads in 2016 with its subversive Flintstones series, one that proved to be surprisingly politically topical despite the prehistoric setting.

Fred Flintstone and family may be returning to the air soon. Last year we learned Warner Bros. is developing a new animated series in conjunction with Elizabeth Banks' Brownstone Productions.

I'm glad they are doing a complete set so we don't have to worry about them finishing the series.

My favorite animated series. Surprisingly creepy sometimes too. I love it!

I greatly would have preferred individual seasons through WAC. With a price this low, I'm very fearful that they're planning on cramming the episodes with tons of DNR. Typical WHV.

This made my day. I grew up loving The Flintstones. Watched it all the time... I had the DVD's and sold them a while ago when I needed some extra funds. Always dreamed of this arriving on Blu-ray. Day one!

Please tell which episodes of The Flintstones are the creepiest so I can make sure and watch those first.

[The Great Owl]

Yabba dabba do!

Count me in.

[Poya]

The prime time cartoon that started it all. The greatest thing HB ever made (suck it, Scooby Doo!). Day 1!

[RICKBONDOO7]

Yabba,Dabba,Do !!! : ) Finally ! Great News ! ... I figured they would release it for the 60th Anniversary ! I hope it Includes ..The Man Called Flintstone (1966) Movie !

[Skorpius]

Hope all the previous bonus content is ported over (since I don't have the DVDs).

[akaun6899]

Hopefully The Man Called Flintstone will also be included.

If not, hopefully strong sales of this set will make a separate release a reality. Even better if it's via WAC.

[Dragon78]

Well that is some great news.

Thank you OP. I was going to snag the copy of the complete DVD at Walmart tomorrow when I go to grab some groceries. Saves me the headache of a quick turnaround. I do with my son liked The Flintstones though. He loves the old toons and loves dinosaurs, will not watch The Flintstones.

I'm gonna guess that this is going to be directly handled by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment (much like last year's 2 Scooby-Doo sets) rather than their Warner Archive unit (which handled complete series sets for Jonny Quest and The Jetsons).

Also, if WB could include both What-A-Cartoon! shorts featuring Dino and The Flintstones: On the Rocks, then that would really be nice.

I'm like 99.9% sure, that WHV will be handling this instead of WAC. Series like Scooby Doo, The Flintstones, and Wonder Woman for whatever reason Warner wants to be released by WHV, I would guess since WAC releases aren't released via many brick and mortar shops except some independents like BullMoose.

[Worship.my.wreck]

I haven't watched this show in years. I'll probably pick this up.

[StarDestroyer52]

Also will be grabbing this based on the first three seasons. In my opinion, the series went downhill after new sponsorship from Winston to Welch's Grape Juice, that but those first three seasons are superb.
