Who said it: Barney Rubble or Barney Fife?

Can you nip it in the bud, good buddy?

 

The Flintstones and The Andy Griffith Show premiered three days apart from one another. Both sitcoms featured a sidekick character named Barney. Coincidence? 

Well, yeah, probably. Both Barney Fife and Barney Rubble became immediate comedy staples. That was thanks to the many funny things they said.

But can you tell the difference between the Stone Age neighbor and the deputy? Are these quotes from Bedrock or Mayberry? Match the line to the correct fellow!

Watch The Andy Griffith Show on MeTV!

Weeknights at 8 & 8:30, Sundays at 6 & 6:30 PM

  11. "Kleptomineracs they call 'em… A person that steals because he can't help it. It's a sickness."
  12. "It you scrub with Sudsy-Wudsy, you'll wash away the mudsy-mudsies."

11/13
Mostly tried to hear these in my head with the two different voices.
#9 that strategy failed.
#3 the bowling ball should have clued me in.

You got 10 out of 13
Woohoo! You probably know the difference between Barney Miller and Barney the Dinosaur, too!

11 out of 13. For "Kleptomineracs they call 'em…" I thought it was Barney Rubble because it was written as "mineracs", so I thought it might be a play with minerals "rocks", and we know how the Flintstones often has names and references to a rock.

12/13. Missed #9. Love the Flintstones, but don't remember that statement. (sounds like Barney Fife to me)

Ugh,...only 9 of 13. BUT.....
I rushed on a couple and my screen moved/updated right when I clicked but it was supposed to be on the CORRECT answer.
