We'll Have a Groovy Time

This is the 1972 come-back version of the Flinstones where Pebbles and Bam-Bam are now groovy teenagers in a band, and their friend Schleprock destroys everything he touches. They even changed the lyrics to, "We'll have a groovy time," with early 70's psychedelic effects, and it's filled with Laugh-In type segways. The best part of this series has to be the songs, with the Pebbles and Bab-bam gang playing cheesy Brady Bunch type music using dinosaurs as musical instruments as they fly away in tripped out fantasy music videos. It's now playing daily in Madrid, Spain. Get ahold of these classics if you can.
