The roman holidays

The Roman Holidays is an animated series produced by Hanna-Barbera for NBC in 1972. Like The Flintstones, this show was essentially a contemporary sitcom that transferred 20th century culture to the distant past: in this case, the ancient Roman Empire, circa A.D. 63.

Manatee versions of the characters Laurie and Precocia Holiday and Mr. Tycoonius appear as sirens in the Jellystone! episode "Balloon Kids".

Overview[]

The Holiday family consisted of father Gus, mother Laurie, daughter Precocia, son Happius "Happy" and pet lion Brutus, whose voice was identical to that of Snagglepuss. Living in their apartment in the Venus de Milo Arms in Pastfusilo, Rome, the Holidays endured the frustrations of urban life, many of them caused by their overbearing landlord, Brutus Evictus.
