Why are Hanna-Barbera characters so commonly used in commercials for insurance and banking companies? I feel like I've shared three or four of them on the blog so far, and today, I'm sharing another one. These ads played in the UK during the early nineties and focused on the Flintstones changing their car insurance to Swinton. The animation in these commercials is pretty close to the look of the TV Flintstones movies that aired around the same time these did, which makes me wonder if these were done in tandem. Here's the first commercial.
Here is the second ad, which is much shorter, but features a fun bit of dialogue between Fred and Barney, voiced by Henry Corden and Frank Welker respectively.
