Fred Flintstone and George Clooney Want to Come To Your House

Any good blog worth it's weight in rocks nowadays has a giveaway of some sort to thank it's readers for stopping by. WWoB is proud to announce a contest that will put a few extra titles into your DVD library. And not just any DVD, but we're happy to share our favorite prehistoric cartoon family with you. We'll be giving away a copy of the 5 DVD set Warner Home Video Premiere Episodes Vol. 1! Five first episodes of television series, classic and modern, come packaged together for a trip down memory lane on the house courtesy of Wonderful World of Blog. There's "The Flintstone Flyer"; the first episode of The Flintstones to air in 1960. The set also includes another comedy classic from the same era, Gilligan's Island - the first episode was an hour long and filmed in black in white. There's also the feature-length first episode of ER and two more favorites. That's almost five hours of quality television entertainment!

So, what's the rub? All you have to do to win this collection of great television is enter our super simple Flintstone Celebrity Contest. If you remember on The Flintstones, real-life celebrities would often appear on the show but their names were "Flintstone-ized", for example the most famous guest appearance was Ann-Margret who danced with Fred and Barney as Ann-Margrock. Ed Sullivan became Ed Sullystone, Cary Grant was Cary Granite, Michael Jackson even appeared on a late 80's episode of Flintstone Kids as Michael Jackstone. All you have to do is zap WWoB an e-mail or leave a comment with a Flintstone name for a modern day celebrity. It can be anyone from entertainment, politics, sports...anywhere!

We'll pick one winner at random from all the entries received before 11:59pm on Sunday July 26, 2009. The winner will be picked at random and not based on the creativity of the entry, in fact you don't even have to send in the Flintstone name - you can just enter. We'll post the winner and some of the funny Flintstone celebrity names later in the week. Have fun!
