Each recurring support character changes the dynamic slightly from the ambiance of the TV series. Speaking of the regular cast from the TV series, this month we have no visits from the Rubbles. (Maybe they demanded too much compensation to appear regularly in the comic strip!)<br /><br />It's also nice to see a cameo from our favorite smarter-than-the-average bear. This is not the first time the Flintstones have watched Yogi Bear on television. One of the strips reprinted a couple of years back showed Yogi on TV--and Boo-Boo if I recall correctly. Even on the TV show, Fred said "If I want laughs, I'll call Yogi Bear." Not to overlook Yogi's cameo in the "Swedish Visitors" episode. Love that H-B cross-pollination!<br /><br />And it's also interesting to note how frequently motorcycle cops played a role in an H-B production, whether set in the past, the present, or the future. They usually would hide out behind billboards to catch unwary speedsters. Bill and Joe must have received a fair share of speeding tickets over the years.<br /><br />Thanks again, Yowp, for the monthly Flintstones fix! And thanks to Richard for giving us the color versions!scarecrow33https://www.blogger.com/profile/10552306802823617940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-21349552032947497442018-04-18T17:10:18.235-07:002018-04-18T17:10:18.235-07:00Materials 100% Gene Hazelton.
