We all the animated Flinstones concept was highly influenced by the Honeymooners. But are their any Flinstones episodes that are remakes of a Honeymooners episodes?

That's a very good question. I don't remember certain Flintstone episodes like I do the Honeymooners. I do know that Fred had hair brain schemes like Ralph did.

There was an episode of the Flintstones I saw on the Usa network years ago (It was set when Pebble & Bam Bam were teens.) It matched almost exactly the Honeymooners ep where Ralph & Ed Norton discovers a great tasting "appetizer" in the icebox and it later turns out to be dog food because Alice didn't want him to know about a dog she was keeping. It was almost exactly the same all the way through with Fred & Barney.
