Subtle eh?

omg

Niice.

its not subliminal if they are talking about it

Its not subliminal because Winston was one of their sponsors, so of course Fred & Barney are going to smoke at one point.

I think he was being sarcastic

I dont see it

It's amusing to see cartoon characters smoking, but there's nothing subliminal about it. It was a straight-up advertisement for smokes.

oh... lol, just caught the description. I'll give you a 4th star for me being an idiot :P

An excellent assault on big tobacco, you should start a campaign, my friend!

Wow... now that was wrong. But if you remember back in the 40s or 50s, smoking was considered "SEXY" or "COOL". Seriously.

They smoked cigars during the cartoon as well.

it's a commercial, goddammit, not a subliminal cartoon.

^^^^^ Dumbass

that real or t3h photoshopped?

-1

THAT'S IT!

holy sh*t are my kids watching this smut!

tha show was aimed at adults anyways.

Hmm... I don't see it.

that was a commercial, not an episode of the show

This is an advert.

SMOKE.

Someone liked my idea that I ripped from Family Guy. XD http://subliminalmessage.ytmnd.com/ I'm docking you a point though because it's liminal. Nicely done though. XD

It's a three pronged attack. Subliminal, liminal, and superliminal.

and thats real too, 5/5!

XD

Lol "Superliminal, whats that?" "Hey you! join the navy!"

its not Subliminal 3/5, ill give you the other 2 points when you change the name.

Real subtle

Curse the times we live in! 5!

THE "SUBLIMINAL" AND "SUBTLE" PARTS ARE MEANT AS SARCASTIC JOKES YOU MOUTH-BREATHING RETARDS

0_0

in before some f*ckhead believes this is fake. It's real. Bitches.

Subliminal...?

OMG... WTF!!!! This explains alot about smokers..

brb, buying winston cigarettes

it wasnt subliminal you idiot. they used to have to do that sh*t to pay the bills.

Ain't no fruity pebbles.

O_O

This is ancient history my friends, Cavemen were smoking cigarettes way before complex inventions like "The Wheel" occured. 5'd

Jesus, it looks like the people complaining about this ytmnd have skulls thicker than Fred Flintstone.

This makes me giggle.

The Subliminial part is a joke retards

Huh.

This is from a commefcial, not an episode of the show. I have the commercial on my computer.

Jesus christ you dumbf*cks dont know what sarcasm is.

my mom told me that saddam hussein loves the fintstones (she was overseas) she saw palaces built for saddam's grandchildren with a flintstone character park.

lol, are people actually upset he used subliminal when it's not subliminal? you f*cking idiots

Well back then, it's not like they knew smoking could hurt you like that. Still, I never really considered the Flintstones a kids cartoon much, you know what I mean?

Oh my god...and now they're advertising for fruity pebbles?

xD wow, I want more like this~

You idiots don't realize he's saying 'subliminal' sarcastically?

It's not subliminal dumbass. Just kidding, I'm not one of the above retards who can't read.

OH NOES YOU'LL GET CANCER

Hey mom, where's lassie? SMOKE!

early flinstones have ben sponsored by cigarettes. this is just one of many COMMERCIALS from that time.

I just got it, omg...

That's not very subliminal

Smoking was good for you back then. And the Flinstones were an adult cartoon.

I'm just surprised they didn't call it "WinSTONE Cigrattes".

Smoke. Smoke. Are you smoking yet?

good thing you pointed it out , I would have never guessed ...

Subtle as a King to the head.

8^o

a charlie brown christmas was sponsored by coca cola to begin with. many references were made to coke but were later removed.

Wtf?

Where are all these views coming from? Why is there a sudden influx suddenly? WHERE DID YOU PEOPLE COME FROM? WHOOOOOOOOOO AREEEEEEEE YOUUUUUUUU?!!!???????!!!!!??????

Hey found the whole movie. http://www.tvparty.com/tv/flintalttheme.ram

EDIT: Ignore the above here it really is. http://www.tvparty.com/vault3/flintbig2.ram

Hahahah, I downloaded the whole thing.. its funny as hell!

Fred! Noooo!

You guys don't see this in the context it was made; "The Flintstones" wasn't originally made as a children's cartoon. It was a prime time sitcom. And in an age where people didn't know the effects of smoking, this sorta thing was totally normal. Now, with the addition of Pebbles and such, it became more of a kids show, but these are before that time. Spot the animation differences. Cool find, though.

Adding onto what Joshua-P said, back then, actors were basically owned by their studios, and at the end of shows it was common for them to advertise things in-character. With popular characters Fred and Barney, this is just an extention of that.

yay C A N C E R

....Worthwhile YTMNDs brought me here in case you dont already know

.....That was a commercial. Not part of the cartoon. There was nothing subliminal.

God you want us to smoke winstons, we get it already! >_< Imagine that kinda crap now. It really is more subliminal these days.

better than smoking each others poles.

lol

ARE YA SMOKIN YET?

Now thats great!

Those are totally Marlboros

Let's take a Winston break!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqb6C2Hme9w&search=flintstone

ARE YOU SMOKIN' YET?!

Should've added the guy from the Lassie show on that episode of family guy

SMOKE

1) It was an advert 2) It was the sixties 3) It was a show aimed at adults

SMOKE!!!

Sorry, I'm not seeing it.

Did they even have Winstons in the Stone Age?

you fail, please try again ^_^

you win, keep up the good work. ;D

Remember seeing it so long ago.

LOL!

That's completely liminal.

It isn't subliminal...

Still a good find, though

smoke

They're subliminally on the 'down low'. Notice how they're lounging together alone behind Fred's home (no window for voyeurs, and a stone fence), handling phallic objects, Freudian innuendo galore. What we just missed was the spooning. Subliminal indeed. Communist bastards.

+1

if comments could win, this one would be in the running

no, the fifties didn't use that garbage....anyhow, they wouldn't force racist ideals on kids either or tell them that homosexuality is a brain disorder either.....that's just not true. actually my grandma is all f*cked up because this subliminal sh*t is catching up to her in this day and age. it's really funny.

That's not subliminal.

WHAT WERE YUO THINKING ITS NOT SUBLIMINAL THEY COME RIGHT OUT AND SAY IT SMOKE WINSTON DONT YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT TEH WORD SUBLIMINAL EVEN MEANS OH IM SO MAD I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU!!!

^ Just kidding, by the way. :)

You missed the opening part, where Fred and Barney see Wilma and Betty sweating over yardwork. Barney: "Gee Fred, it makes me feel bad watching them work like this while we're just sittin' here." Fred: "Me too, Barn... eh, let's go around back where we can't see 'em!" Barney: "Okay, Fred!"

that is f*cked up

so subtle i could almost miss it. if i was blind, deaf, retarded, and was watching a different channel.

this isnt funny :/. Ppl dont seem to understand that cartoons back then wernt meant for kids, it was general entertainment. F*CK! No stars, way to phail.

"THE "SUBLIMINAL" AND "SUBTLE" PARTS ARE MEANT AS SARCASTIC JOKES YOU MOUTH-BREATHING RETARDS" Yes, yes they are.

He's using litotes; it's pretty obvious it's not subliminal, and I'm sure the guy who actually made the YTMND knows it. Stop saying that to make yourself feel smart.

MrOWl your a dumbass lol

not subliminal, but advertising none the less
