The Flintstones Frequently Asked Questions List

3. What was the very first episode of The Flintstones? That depends on how you define "first." The first in order of production was "The Swimming Pool" (P-1), which was recorded on April 1, 1960; but the first to actually air on television was "The Flintstone Flyer" (P-2), which was recorded on the following day. As for which ordering of the episodes is "correct," that's largely a matter of personal taste. In syndication, the episodes usually run in original airing sequence. Some would argue that the true "first" episode was never aired along with the original series; see question 4 and 5. Table of Contents | Next FAQ This Page Maintained by John Paul Murphy
