User Reviews

 
A timely classic futuristic cartoon.
23 November 2016 | by OllieSuave-007See all my reviews

I didn't watch this cartoon series a whole lot when I was a kid, but did remember it for what it was - a fun show that takes you to the future where cars travel in midair, and homes and buildings that pretty much have everything operated with remote control within them.

Everyone would remember the lyric-catching opening scene where each member of the Jetson family is introduced, and household head George Jetson doing his utmost best for his family - wife Jane, son Elroy, daughter Judy, dog Astro and robotic housekeeper Rose - working at his job under the extreme pressure of the tempered-filled boss Mr. Spacely.

It's almost like a typical sitcom (pre-2000s) family but with the cartoon and into-the-future angle. It's a nice show for the entire family, and is a show that stood well through the tests of time.

Grade B
