I Yabba-Dabba Doǃ is a made-for-TV animated film based on the original series, The Flintstones and its spinoff, The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show. It premiered on ABC (the same network the original series was aired) on February 7, 1993. Many attribute this movie's inspiration to the success of the remake of Father of the Bride. The telefilm had a relatively high level of animation quality.[1]
Fred: The Flintstones and the Rubbles are no longer one big happy family.
Barney: We will never have anything to do with each other again, and vice versa.
Betty: You two goons are not going to stand in the way for our kids' happiness.
Barney: [points at Fred] Well, I'm not going to let my son have THIS goon for a father-in-law.
Wilma: Fred Flintstone, you are not going to ruin this wedding.
Fred: Well, I am NOT going to let my daughter make the worst decision of her life!
[the adults argue at once]
Pebbles: ENOUGH! [throws the cactus juicer on the floor, shattering it] I've had it with ALL OF YOU! The only thing Bamm-Bamm and I want is to be happy, and you're making us miserable!
Fred: But, Pebbles, this is for your own good!
Pebbles: You call this GOOD? A wedding is supposed to be fun, and everyone's turning it into a big mess!
Bamm-Bamm: Don't worry, honey. We'll get married tomorrow, even if we have to elope to...Rock Vegas.
Wilma: Rock Vegas?! Oh, no, you can't! [Bamm-Bamm carries Pebbles outside; Wilma and Betty run after them]] Pebbles, Bamm-Bamm, please don't go! We'll work something out without your fathers getting in the way!
Pebbles: Sorry, mom, it’s time we take charge of our own lives.
[Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm drive off]
Fred: Well, happy now, Barney? You ruined everything!
Barney: Well, that should make YOU happy, Fred! Now you won't have to worry about paying for the wedding, or replacing your precious nest egg.
Wilma: [she and Betty become shocked] Our nest egg, Fred?
Fred: [mumbles nervously] I can explain everything, Wilma. It was just a little wage, a surefire bet, and...
Wilma: You lost all our money on a stupid bet?!
Fred: It wasn't stupid, the Brontos could have won, but you see, Barney-
Barney: Come on, Betty, I've had enough of Fred Flintstone for one life time.
Betty: [follows Barney] I'm right behind you, Dear.
Fred: Can you believe the nerve of Rubble? He acts that he hasn't done a thing.
Wilma: [holds a spoon] Everything's YOUR fault, Fred! The Nest Egg, [stomps on Fred's foot] the Wedding, [punches Fred's stomach with the spoon] and Rock Vegas! [bonks Fred on the head with the spoon]
Pearl: Wilma, I told you the day you met this throwback he’d spoil everything, and I was right as always.
Wilma: Ooh, I should've listened to you, Mother!
Fred: But, Wilma, I... [gets kicked out by Wilma]
Wilma: It's no use, Fred! I never wanna speak to you again![slams the door; the force causes the mailbox flag to hit Fred in the head]
