First off, looks like they dipped into a Honeymooners episode (what the cartoon's based on) when Fred Flintstone wore a spaceman's uniform @ his Water Buffalo Lodge party.
The Way Outs themselves looked like real space aliens with the four rings they sport. Their shaggy red hair may have inspired another Hanna-Barbera character, Multi-Man of The Impossibles!
I read an Impossibles fanfic where each hero traveled through time. Multi-Man went to the stone age, found out he was in Bedrock & mentioned that the Way Outs were his prehistoric ancestors! Really fits if you compare the characters.
This episode gets my kudos!moreless

Trivia
ADD TRIVIA- This time, the Flintstones' address is 342 Gravelpit Terrace, and they have a huge front gate and address marker. Edit
- There are two bloopers in this episode, the first is - outside the windows of the house of Julia's friend it is daytime, but outside her front door it is night. The other blooper is that in some versions that show up on TV, the announcer says the correct radio station letters. But on other versions, and on the DVD, the written letters are KNBD, but the announcer says KFWB. Edit
- When we first see Eddie, the radio announcer, his hair is blond. But in the second shot of him, a minute later, his hair is a reddish color. Edit
