or The Jetsons (George Jetson, Jane Jetson, Elroy Jetson, Judy Jetson, Astro, Henry Orbit etc...) would've appeared if NBC revived it, but Fred Silverman (then of CBS) passing over the much proposed Jetsons spin-off (similar to The Pebbles & Bamm-Bamm Show) for Partridge Family, 2200 A.D. was still a black hole on their TV resume.
