Yabba Dabba Doozy!,
By
This review is from: The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show - The Complete Series (DVD)
The first of the Flintstones spin-offs, The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show (1971) featured the children of the Flintstones and Rubbles as teenagers in Bedrock high school-themed misadventures replete with Laugh-In style gags, jokes and a dance of the week ala The Archies. A chip off the old block or rather a "pebble off the old Flintstone," Pebbles, too, had a catchphrase: "Yabba Dabba Doozy!" which [to Bamm-Bamm's chagrin] signaled "a doozy of an idea" that typically got the gang into various trouble. A Barney to Pebbles' Fred, Bamm-Bamm, too, cringed at the mention of his best friend's "brilliant ideas" and was also drafted into singing lead in their band [The Bedrock Rockers] because of his shower singing which was only good while he was in the shower in "The Golden Voice" (a personal favorite of mine). In addition to great character designs, fun new characters Bad Luck Schleprock (voiced by legendary Don Messick), teen inventor Moonrock and Bronto of the Bronto Bunch (both voiced by "Inch High Private Eye" Lennie Weinrib) plus great new music from original Flintstones music director Hoyt Curtin, The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show also featured the voices of Sally Struthers (All in the Family) and Jay North (Dennis the Menace) as the teenaged title characters. Not to mention regular appearances from their parents plus an episode featuring the creepy Gruesomes. A little trivia: Sally Struthers also was the voice of "Charlene Sinclair" from other prehistoric series Dinosaurs. The only negative I found with the show was that Bamm-Bamm, though a strapping lad, wasn't as super-strong as he was on The Flintstones as "the world's strongest baby." Despite this, The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show was one of the better Flintstones spin-offs (my favorite) which I still enjoyed and recommend. The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show - The Complete Series is a 2-disc (352 min.) set featuring all 16 episodes from the 1971-72 season as originally aired; Full-Frame (1.33:1) video; plus, as extras, the following 4 bonus Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm episodes from The Flintstone Comedy Hour (1972-73): Squawkie Talkie, Suitor Computer, Beauty and the Beast, Bedlam in Bedrock. Episodes: 1. Gridiron Girl Trouble 2. Putty in Her Hands 3. Frog For a Day 4. The Golden Voice 5. Daddy's Little Helper 6. Focus Foolery 7. Pebbles' Big Boast 8. The Grand Prix Pebbles 9. The Terrible Snorkasaurus 10. Schleprock's New Image 11. Coach Pebbles 12. No Cash and Carry 13. Wooly the Great 14. Mayor May Not 15. They Went That Away 16. The Birthday Present

This review is from: The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show - The Complete Series (DVD)
In releasing classic Hanna Barbera series, Warner Home Video has been inconsistent in preserving the shows as originally presented. Most notable is the sporadic removal of the laugh track used in many HB shows -- for example, the tracks were removed from the "Josie and the Pussycats" DVD release, resulting not only in awkward pauses where the laugh track originally was, but an overall distortion of how the show was intended to be enjoyed.
While today's television cartoons are produced without laugh tracks, use of the laugh track in 1960s and 1970s cartoons was the custom, and is a reflection of that era. To preserve the integrity of the original show, the track should not be removed. Happily, the producers of the "Pebbles and Bamm Bamm Show" DVD release have kept the original laugh track, and it completes what is an overall first-rate release. The show is well written and nicely drawn, the voice talent is terrific, and the digital transfer is bright and sharp. So, enjoy "The Pebbles and Bamm Bamm Show" as it originallly aired...and laugh along bwith the laugh track!

Great Fun,

This review is from: The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show - The Complete Series (DVD)
I had alot of fun reliving my childhood watching this show after all these years.
A lot of people on here are expecting to buy this for The Bedrock Rockers musical segments but The Bedrock Rockers weren't on The Pebbles and Bamm Bamm Show. Pebbles, Bamm Bamm and their friends appeared as The Bedrock Rockers on THE FLINTSTONES COMEDY HOUR, which premiered a year after this show went off the air. The 4 bonus episodes on this collection only include the story segments and not any of the musical segments. We'll have to wait until Warner Bros. decides to release THE FLINTSTONES COMEDY HOUR to get the musical segments featuring The Bedrock Rockers.P
