TV.com summary

Fred Flintstone and Friends was a 30-minute weekday animated series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions which aired in first-run syndication by Columbia Pictures Television from September 12, 1977 to September 1, 1978.

The show was a repackaging of four off-network Hanna-Barbera animated series and was hosted by Fred Flintstone. It contained the following segments:

The four series' episodes, originally broadcast in half-hour formats, were now serialized into 2 or 3 part 10-minute stories, all of which were introduced by Fred on a daily basis (via voice-overs on brief bumper clips shown in-between segments). Also featured were segments from The Flintstone Comedy Hour and The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show. The opening title sequence was a composite, using clips from the openings of the various series, along with a new title theme song.

Henry Corden made his official debut as Fred's voice on this series after Alan Reed (the original voice of Fred) had passed away in June 1977. Corden would continue providing Fred's voice in future Flintstones TV series and specials, as well as Fruity Pebbles & Cocoa Pebbles cereal commercials until his death in 2005.
