At 2 p.m. ET, Cartoon Network will showcase a holiday episode of ‘The Flintstones’ from 1964, titled “Christmas Flintstone,” taken from Season 5. The plot follows Fred Flintstone (Alan Reed) as he fills in for Santa Claus.

An hour later, fans will be delighted with a showing of ‘The Flintstones Christmas Carol.’ It is said to be a pre-historic take on Charles Dickens’ ‘A Christmas Carol.’

The new version of this classic Christmas tale will swipe famous ‘Christmas Carol‘ characters for characters from ‘The Flintstones.’ And with a little bit of that Flintstones humor, it will be like we never left the Stone Age.

I’m sure families will be happy to gather round to a ‘The Flintstones’ special since it’s a show that I’m sure can unite different generations. Prior to being surpassed by ‘The Simpsons’ in 1997, ‘The Flintstones’ was the most financially successful and longest-running network animated television series for three decades.

Cartoon Network will also air holiday versions of favorites like ‘Teen Titans Go!,’ ‘Scooby Doo,’ and ‘Adventure Time.’
