Jokes about flying cars and jetpacks are a common thing in America and these jokes find their origin in the 1962-animated sitcom The Jetsons. The show aired from September 23, 1962, to September 22, 1963, and was never renewed for a second season. Even then, The Jetsons played a crucial role in defining the way Americans think of the future as well as their expectations of technology. It wouldn't be wrong to say that The Jetsons is one of the most important and defining pieces of 21st-century futurism.
The Jetsons narrates the story of an upper-middle-class family residing in Orbit City. George Jetson is a Digital Index Operator and his wife, Jane, is a homemaker. The couple lives in their Skypad apartment with their teenage daughter Judy and son Elroy. The family has a dog named Astra and a robot maid named Rosie. The show did not only deliver relevant humor but also became popular for its imaginative space-age living. It's easy to fall in love with a world where domestic tasks are performed by robots, ozone-scrapping homes groom and dress their inhabitants, and people use spaceships to commute. The Jetsons raised America's hopes for the future.
At the time it first appeared on TV screens, many critics were quick to dismiss The Jetsons as just another cartoon. However, over the years, the show has had a profound impact on the way we think of the future. Though the show ran for a single season, its influence has been immense. After its premiere run, the show continued on ABC, CBS, and NBC for years. Between 1985 and 1987, many new episodes were produced for syndication. Unfortunately, in 1989, George O' Hanlon, who served as the voice of George Jetson on the show, passed away, and thereafter, no new shows were produced. The series finale came in 1990, in the form of a film titled Jetsons: The Movie. 27 years later, a direct-to-video animated movie titled Jetsons & WWE: Robo-WrestleMania! released and witnessed mediocre success.
The Jetsons may not be as funny as The Flinstones, but they provided good humor and elicited many laughs. While The Flintstones explored an era that was already well known and understood, The Jetsons forayed into unknown territory and used creative imagination to create a world that was unseen and unknown. Great animation, innovative ideas, and an absolutely fantastic theme make this show memorable in every way.
