BARNEY RUBBLE

Описание: Bernard Matthew "Barney" Rubble is a next-door neighbor, best friend of Fred Flintstone, and the deuteragonist of the original series, The Flintstones and the rest of the franchise.
Barney's personality was based on that of Ed Norton on the 1950s television series The Honeymooners, played by Art Carney. Like Ralph Kramden on The Honeymooners, Fred was constantly on the lookout for get-rich-quick schemes, while Barney, like Norton, found life satisfactory as it was, but participated in said schemes because Fred was his friend. Usually, after Fred had hatched one of his plans, Barney showed his agreement by laughing and saying, "uh hee hee hee... Ok, Fred." or "hee hee hee... whatever you say, Fred."

Barney is more jovial, easy-going and good-natured than Fred is, though he often plays funny little insult jokes on his best friend. He’s very caring and devoted to his wife Betty as he never wanted to be romantically involved with another woman. Barney is childlike, respectful, noble, encouraging, judicious, responsible, understanding, big-hearted, benevolent, and extroverted. Also, he’s a loving father to his adopted son, Bamm-Bamm.

Although Fred and Barney are best pals, Barney loses his patience with Fred occasionally. The best example comes in I Yabba-Dabba Do! after losing his patience with Fred for ruining Pebbles's and Bamm-Bamm's wedding, Barney decides to leave Bedrock. He changes his mind after Fred owes him an apology. Fred is often aggravated by Barney's inveterate cheerfulness, but he does truly care for him.

Barney is not as emotional as the other characters including Fred, and rarely cries. He cries, however, after saying, "I hate to see a grown man cry," or "Oh gee, if there's one thing I can't stand is to see a grown man cry."
Barney is a short and diminutive caveman with fair skin, tan beard stubbles, yellow hair, thick black eyebrows and eyes that are depicted as two ovals or (occasionally) circles and shown only as dark circular outlines in the first through fifth seasons and later with black, very similar to Wilma's eyes in the sixth and final season of the original series. He also wears a brown loincloth with a black letter X-shaped shoelace on the top.
