On-point predictions To 1960s audiences, the Jetsons’ videophone - a big piece of hardware whose staticky screen gives way to an image of the person trying to reach you - seemed like a dream. Read on to see what “The Jetsons” got right about the future - and what it got hilariously wrong. “We still speak about the future in Jetsons terms,” said Jared Bahir Browsh, author of the 2021 book “Hanna-Barbera: A History.” “A show that originally ran for one season had such an impact on the way we see our culture and our lives.” (“The Jetsons” actually came out in two chunks: its original ’60s run was only 24 episodes, and then a reboot in 1985 gave it another 50.) So why are we still stuck on the ground waiting for our jetpacks? And why, all these years later, do we still hold a slightly corny, old-school animated sitcom up as a beacon of what could be? That means we’re supposed to be only 40 years away from the Jetsons’ world of Rosie the Robot, toothbrushing machines and apartment buildings high above the clouds. While George is having his first birthday, the show itself is about to celebrate its 60th: it debuted on Sept. The button-pushing, flying-car-riding, iconic future man entered the galaxy on July 31, 2022, according to “The Jetsons” canon. Get ready to meet George Jetson - because he’s about to be born.
