I love how George Jetson switches from "bedraggled starving man" to "self-satisfied smug jerk" the instant that Peanut asks if they're from Florida.

[@DaveDexterMusic]

Yeah, the design on that expression is top-tier.

[@HyperSonicXtreme]

@@andrewcarlson3486 Don' forget, The Jetsons were made in the early 60s, just like the 60s anime Astro Boy. And back then, people thought the future would have flying cars. Even in TMNT Turtles in Time which came out 1991 Arcade 1992 SNES, in the level Neon Night Riders Konami predicted 2020 will have flying hoverboards and that didn't happen.

[@andrewcarlson3486]

[@zuzoscorner]

[@AttemptedVoices]

Context: If you want to know why George Jetson and the gang are 'bedraggled and starving' as RequestingPickup put it, it's because of the fact they thought the 'robotic floor' was broken so they began to walk, and they haven't done that ever so it took them a whole day to get to the desk.

[@monkeycat48]

Good thing that Harvey Birdman has this head up his ass apparently he’s not even paying attention except to small details and then all of a sudden takes the case even after being ridiculed in front of by George Jetson as a talking apeman. Eventually showing punch cards and a very large cell phone it looks like it was from the 1980s and well the rest is history. Nowadays whenever someone is on the job they normally don’t have to use cards anymore some still do but then there are those using their fingerprints there manually getting in with their phone on an occupation or using their eye and whatever to clock in.

So it was *Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law* who started the trend of gaslighting audiences about a show's content for no good reason. Like how the Darkwing Duck show on Ducktales 2017 doesn't have Gosalyn, Launchpad, Drake Mallard, Negaduck, Taurus Bulba, and ended on a cliffhanger with two *Darkwings*. Or the Chip & Dale movie which got everything wrong about Rescue Rangers. Like it absolutely _did_ air in Albany, it _never_ ended with a Looney Tunes birdie gag, season 3 only had 5 episodes so there couldn't be a season 3 episode 25, Double-O-Dale was _not_ an "unaired pilot," it was a regular episode... with Chip in it, how could Dale have done that behind his back? Why are they kids in the 80's when their first appearance was in Private Pluto (April 2, 1943)? Actually, I'd be here all day if I listed the errors in that movie, like "Garfield's little body can't take muscles like that"? Do they have any idea that Chad Garfield pic isn't an edit, it's from an actual strip and also cartoon where he reveals that you can flex fat? Just about the only thing they got _right_ was the Bobby Driscoll reference... which they _claim_ was an "accident."
