C got me thinking about these guys. They were part of The Flintstones. I always liked monster familys (The Munsters, Addams Family, etc.). The Gruesomes were obviously based on Sonny & Cher, down to the wife's squeaky voice and large nose. For the longest time I thought they were "The Weirdly's", but it turns out Weirdly is the husband's name. I forget the other names.

Always liked them. And I thought they appeared more than they did!
Hanna Barbera stuff always gave me a headache. I could never understand why Wilma (aka Trixie) never told Fred (aka Ralph) to just take his nasty attitude and shove it.
Let me guess.. you're having a bad day...
What a flashback! Good times...
Hey Joe: I forgot these guys, good post!
Sunny, Jim & Wings:
I remember Mrs. Gruesome was in tears because Wilma unintentionally insulted her by saying her home was "lovely"..
Aka...."Alice" for Wilma.....not Trixie!
Yeah Betty Rubble was the Trixie
