Character

Bernard "Barney" Rubble

Description

Barney Rubble is the good-natured best friend and next-door neighbor of Fred Flintstone in The Flintstones. A short, blond-haired caveman living in prehistoric Bedrock, he is the husband of Betty Rubble and the adoptive father of the superhumanly strong infant Bamm-Bamm. His easygoing temperament contrasts with Fred's impatience, though he loyally joins Fred in his frequent schemes. His personality was modeled on Ed Norton from the 1950s television series The Honeymooners.
