Sci-Fi History: The Jetsons (1962)


Hanna-Barbera followed up The Flintsones with a space age version of the prehistoric show. The original show ran from 1962-1987. It was set in 2062 and featured high-rise apartments, robots, flying cars, 20 hour work week, and an automated world. The theme song became a hit in the 60s and many people longed for the tech. Around 2000, many people wondered aloud where the flying cars were.
