This is an old TV commercial. In the Flintstones' first season on ABC, the original sponsor was Winston Cigarettes. So this would have been aired in the early 60's.

Ha ha! I have seen this one before.

The Beatles tribute band we saw called, Rain, showed this commercial during intermission along with other commercials from the 60's

Crazy stuff! :lol:

Those commercials make me laugh now but I'm old enough to remember when cig commercials were routine and we didn't think anything of them. Oh how times have changed.

There have been several cartoons including the Flintstones where they have gone back and REMOVED the cigarettes from the actual cartoon and repackaged them to sell the DVDs... I say leave the classics alone - its a period in history and we can explain it to our kids if we want to.....
