Death Knight 915 :
Yup. The theory is that the Jetsons are the rich elite that live high above the Flintstones in a post apocalyptic world. They had a crossover episode so that supports the theory.

The core idea behind Fred Flintstone working at the Slate Rock and Gravel Company quarry was to satirize the struggles, routines, and aspirations of the American blue-collar working class.The entire concept of The Flintstones was modeled directly after the classic 1950s live-action sitcom The Honeymooners, with Fred's quarry job serving as the prehistoric equivalent to Ralph Kramden’s job as a city bus driver.🏛️The Satire of Modern Blue-Collar LifeFred’s job at the quarry was a vehicle for several recurring themes:The "Nine-to-Five" Grind: The show used the quarry to parody the monotony of modern corporate and industrial labor. Fred punching his stone timecard and shouting "Yabba Dabba Doo!" at the whistle perfectly captured the universal feeling of an everyday worker desperate to leave the clock.The Demanding Boss: Fred's relationship with his boss, Mr. Slate, mirrored the anxieties of the average worker dealing with an short-tempered, authoritarian employer who frequently threatened termination.Prehistoric Technology Gag: The quarry served as the ultimate backdrop for the show's signature humor—replacing modern industrial machinery with dinosaurs. Steam shovels were replaced by brontosauruses, and cranes were pterodactyls, highlighting the absurdity of a "modern Stone Age."The Middle-Class Dream: Fred’s modest income from the quarry contrasted with his constant desire to get rich quick. His financial limitations drove the plot of almost every episode, pushing him into wild schemes to provide a better life for Wilma and Pebbles

There were lots of other babies in Bedrock. Remember the dad poker baby sitting group. So many episodes with babies. How did Betty and Barney get BAMBAM? The other parents who want to adopt him found out the woman was pregnant.

The Flintstones did not feature many children initially because it was originally created as an adult prime-time sitcom, not a children's cartoon.The show was heavily based on the live-action adult sitcom The Honeymooners, focusing on adult problems like work stress, financial struggles, and marital bickering. For the first several years, the central characters did not have any children at all.The dynamics changed later in the series due to several specific production choices:Key Reasons for the Lack of ChildrenAdult Target Audience: When the show premiered in 1960, it aired during prime time (8:30 PM). The characters even famously appeared in commercials smoking Winston cigarettes. Because the target demographic was adults, storylines revolved around lodge meetings, bowling leagues, and workplace issues rather than raising children.Toy Merchandising Decision: In season 3, creators William Hanna and Joseph Barbera decided to add a baby. They initially planned for Fred and Wilma to have a boy. However, a toy merchandising company intervened and noted that a baby girl doll would generate significantly more toy sales. This led to the birth of Pebbles Flintstones.The Introduction of Bamm-Bamm: To give Pebbles a playmate and avoid filling Bedrock with background kids, the creators had Barney and Betty Rubble adopt Bamm-Bamm in season 4. Keeping the focus strictly on these two specific children allowed the writers to maintain control over the tight, family-oriented storylines.If you want to watch the characters interact with a large cast of children, you have to look to the 1980s spin-off series, The Flintstone Kids. This spin-off reimagined Fred, Wilma, Barney, and Betty as schoolchildren growing up together in Bedrock alongside a wide circle of neighborhood kids and schoolyard bullies
