Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In this takeoff of the popular TV rock-music show Shindig, Fred creates a new dance craze called the Frantic when he hops around in agony after dropping a bowling ball on his foot. In a twinkling, Fred has been invited to perform the Frantic on the TV series "Shinrock-A-Go-Go", hosted by Jimmy O'Neillstone (his voice provided by Shindig emcee Jimmy O'Neill. Also appearing is the singing group The Beau Brummels (as "The Beau Brummelstones", natch!), performing their hit "Laugh, Laugh", written by Ron Elliot--which was not recorded for The Flintstones, but released as a single long before this episode aired.
