THE
JETSONS WERE THE THIRD HANNA-BARBERA CARTOON TO AIR IN PRIME
TIME. SORT OF A FUTURISTIC FLINTSTONES, THE FAMILY CONSISTED
OF GEORGE JETSON THE FATHER, JANE,HIS WIFE, DAUGHTER JUDY,
HIS BOY ELROY, THEIR TALKING DOG ASTRO, & A ROBOT MAID NAMED
ROSEY. EVEN THOUGH EVERYTHING IS MADE SIMPLE BY PUSH BUTTON
CONTROL, EVERYONE SEEMS TO THINK IT'S HARD WORK. GEORGE
WORKS FOR SPACELY SPROCKETS, A COMPANY THAT MAKES.....SPROCKETS.
AS FAR AS I CAN TELL, SPROCKETS ARE GEARS. SPACLEY SPROCKETS
MAIN COMPETITION IS COGWELL COGS. THEY MAKE COGS WHICH ARE
ALSO GEARS. ALMOST EVERY SHOW, MR. SPACELY, A SHORT BALDING
CHUBBY GUY WHO HAPPENS TO BE GEORGES BOSS, FIRES GEORGE
FOR A STUPID REASON. BUT, HE ALWAYS HAS HIS JOB BACK BY
EITHER THE END OF THE EPISODE OR THE BEGINNING OF THE NEXT
ONE. MY FAVORITE CHARACTERS ARE UNIBLAB, A ROBOT WHO WAS
GEORGE'S BOSS FOR ONE EPISODE & IN ANOTHER EPISODE, HE WAS
GEORGE'S DRILL SARGEANT.
MY OTHER FAVORITE CHARACTER IS JET SCREAMER. A ROCK N ROLL
SINGER WHO JUDY WINS A DATE WITH. HE SINGS THE FAMOUS SONG
EEP-OPP-ORK-AH-AH MEANS I LOVE YOU. THE LYRICS OF THE SONG
WERE ACTUALLY CODE WORDS THAT ELROY & HIS FRIENDS MADE UP.
GEORGE SENT THEM IN TO MESS THINGS UP FOR JUDY BUT, IT BACKFIRED
ON HIM & SHE WON THE DATE. FOR THE RECORD: ASTRO'S REAL
NAME IS TRALFAZ.
