What was the original last name of the Flintstones in the pilot episode?
Sandstones
Flagstones
Flintrocks
Limestones
In the pilot episode of what would eventually become known as “The Flintstones,” the lovable caveman couple, Fred and Wilma, originally went by a different last name: the Flagstones. Show creator Joe Barbera, however, changed course when he discovered there was already a comic strip with the same name. Filmed in 1959, the 90-second pilot never saw the light of day, prompting him to rename the show “The Flintstones.” This intriguing piece of Flintstones trivia remained hidden until 1993, when Cartoon Network stumbled upon the pilot in a New York warehouse. The pilot finally aired on television in 1994.
The correct answer is Flagstones.
