A classic Hanna-Barbera cartoon. It ran for about 24 episodes in 1962 and 1963; additional episodes were created for syndication in 1985-87.
The Jetsons were created to try to spin off the popularity of "The Flintstones." Where Fred and Wilma were "the modern Stone Age family," the Jetsons were the modern Space Age family. They lived in a heavily computerized house staffed by various robots and went to work in flying cars. Everything was automated and technology had invaded almost every facet of life, but overall, things were not much different than they are today -- or rather, how they were in the early 1960s.
The voice cast included George O'Hanlon as harried father George Jetson, Penny Singleton as housewife Jane Jetson, Janet Waldo as hip daughter Judy Jetson, Daws Butler as wholesome son Elroy Jetson, Don Messick as loyal hound Astro (Messick was later the voice of Scooby Doo), Jean Vander Pyl as efficient Rosie the Robot, and Mel Blanc as George's boss, Cosmo S. Spacely, owner of Spacely Sprockets.
"The Jetsons" had a theme song, and it went a little something like this:
"Meet George Jetson!
His boy Elroy!
Daughter Judy!
Jane, his wife!"
Well, it doesn't sound like much that way. But it was catchy, had a sound that seemed to owe an awful lot to big band swing, and ended with George trapped on the automated treadmill/dog-walker screaming, "Jane! Stop this crazy thing! JAAAAAANE!"
They had a theatrical feature called "Jetsons: The Movie" in 1990 and a number of made-for-TV movies -- "The Jetsons Christmas Carol" in 1985, "The Jetsons Meet the Flintstones" in 1987, and "Rockin with Judy Jetson" in 1988.
