** In real life, there were various pagan/secular holidays pre-dating (or coexisting with) Christmas that had a similar theme (gift-giving, festivities, etc.). I just assume that's the case for Fred and the gang, especially since there's no references/mentions of Christ ("God" was generically referred to in the "Flintstone Christmas Carol" special, but that's as close as we got).

** Because they're also trying to have Bamm-Bamm [[Spot Light Stealing Squad|supplant Fred and Barney's role]] in the commercials? Shifting focus to Pebbles makes some sense, given that the cereal's named after her and all, but apparently they also want more eye-catching action, which means they need him to do more, or so it would seem...
