The Frankenstones:
This segment features the Flintstones' "Munster-style" neighbors, the Frankenstones --- but this version of the Frankenstones more closely resembles the version seen in The New Fred and Barney Show (episode: "Fred and Barney Meet the Frankenstones") than the Frankenstones that moved in next door in the prime-time specials. Firstly, Frank's wife is again named Hidea (previously the daughter's name in past specials), their two children are again kooky daughter Atrocia (now the youngest) and a now teenaged son Freaky --- plus they have a pet, Rockjaw, who devours anything. Frank's voice and personality, previously done in "Monster Mash" style by John Stephenson, is now done by Charles Nelson Reilly in his traditional high-pitched hyper-whiny style.
Frank now becomes short tempered very easily, especially when he has to deal with his annoying neighbor and rival Fred Flintstone. Both men are frustrated by the friendships between their wives and children --- and by the way they always seem to be thrust into one mess after another because of each other. Unfortunately, the Rubbles are rarely seen in this segment.
