Meet The Jetsons, as a live-action multi-camera sitcom this time
Of all the advancements correctly predicted by The Jetsons—space tourism, robots who do the vacuuming, video-chat technology that allows bosses to holler at their underlings—there are a few things the sci-fi sitcom failed to forecast. For example, future generation’s apparent interest in The Jetsons, or the fact that the Jetsons brand is apparently still making money for somebody. Warner Bros. has been attempting to get a Jetsons movie (not to be confused with 1990’s Jetsons: The Movie) off the ground for decades, with Kanye West, Robert Rodriguez, and Adam F. Goldberg all attached, at various times, to the quest to put George Jetson, his boy Elroy, daughter Judy, and Jane, his wife, in theaters.
