22 years gap between seasons 1 and 2

22 years gap between seasons 1 and 2

Popular enough in the 80s to get 2 more seasons after being cancelled in the 60s, plus 2 TV movies and one theatrical movie

Now mostly forgotten

What went wrong?

What went wrong?

The movie, I guess?

It's just a worse version of the Flintstones without silly animal appliances

Hey, Satan. Post more of the cute sister Lucerito

If that's the case why was it treated like an A-list HB property in the 90s alongside Flinstones, Scooby and Yogi?

george is a shit protag.

Damn Mr. Spacely gets to fuck THAT?

Reruns?

Hehe you said nigger. So based and cool

The 80s seasons were better IMO, the original season focused only on George and sometimes Jane so Judy, Elroy and Rosie didn't do shit, Judy barely talks during the entirely of the 60s season and Rosie only shows up in 2 episodes, in the season 2 DVD extras the crew said that when the show was brought back they choose to take the focus away from George and use Judy, Elroy and Rosie as the episodes' protagonists instead since they seemed to be the characters that children liked most at the time

calm your tits nigger

Time only goes forward and a chunk of the would be audience is literally dead.

Was this around the same time they were doing A Pup Named Scooby Doo? They briefly cooked for that era, like a star burning out before it becomes an artistic black hole that only exists to sell merch every decade or so.

JHON K and his tryhard horryfyng dark comedy parody short.

John K worked on this.

John K. worked on the 80's revival.

Judy needs to be fat

You need to diet

Because FUCK THOSE RICK ASSHOLES AND THEIR MAGIC SKY CASTLES

The gimmick of "oh look at these futuristic conveniences that they take for granted like having a job where you push a button all day" didn't have as much staying power as "the struggles of a modern family but with setting/gear of prehistoric substitutes" or even "mysteries and adventures with our animal mascot"

What went wrong?

The fact that the later seasons sucked?

Season 2 was John K's idea by the way, he pushed for it when he was at Hanna Barbera.

It was one of the better things HB did in the 80s and it got them out of the slump they were in.
Fixed.
Top is staying, blue board

Hanna Barbera was bought out by turner and then Warner Bros. Neither gave a shit about Jetsons and never promoted it again.

Movie flopped and had bad reviews

Oh god dammit, here come the fat looneys.

But was it bad?

It literally killed 2 members of the original cast

Damn, now I wish I posted a higher resolution. Do you have a handle?

Based
Agreed

The Jetsons Movie is a mess when you dig into it.

George's voice actor was in a wheelchair and blind because of a stroke

He had to have the script read to him and he repeated it

He also died from another stroke in the studio shortly after he finished his voice work

Judy's voice actor did all her voice work just to be replaced by Tiffany

Mel Blanc died during production and didn't finish of his voice work

That man has issues and I do't know how he became a superstar in the 90s.

I saw it when I was a kid and barely remember it but I don't recall it being all that bad.

one of these shows that got very popular and a cultural icon despite having had very few episodes

Is it fair to say its kinda of a cursed movie? And NO i dont meant it in that smarmy way.

Always liked Jane more than Wilma

Man, thats fucking douchey

>what went wrong?

Humanity is now in the ACTUAL 21st Century, and the future in the Jetsons got a lot of shit wrong. No cell phones no Internet. No streaming. No women’s lib.
No Peale of color.

Ren and Stimpy ruined animation and is the reason why we have retarded deep story driven garbage. I just want funny animation again.

Anybody have a pic of Dolly Parton from the show?
