The Jetsons Animated Movie Will Be a Reality Soon

The Jetsons Movie

Deadline reports that Warner Bros. Pictures has plans to move forward with The Jetsons as a fully animated feature film. This must be one cartoon which I watched alot as a child. I use to see reruns of the same episode for god knows how many times. The Jetsons was light years ahead of it’s time.

Produced by Hanna-Barbera, the original incarnation of “The Jetsons” followed the success of the studio’s “The Flintstones,” following a nuclear family in a space age future. A primetime series, “The Jetsons” aired Sunday nights on ABC from September 23, 1962 to March 3, 1963.

Matt Lieberman has been hired to provide the screenplay.

The Jetsons is an animated sitcom produced by Hanna-Barbera, originally airing in primetime from 1962 to 1963, then later in syndication for new episodes from 1985 to 1987 as well. It was Hanna-Barbera’s Space Age counterpart to The Flintstones. Reruns can be seen frequently on Boomerang.

While the Flintstones live in a world with machines powered by birds and dinosaurs, the Jetsons live in the year 2062 in a futuristic utopia (100 years in the future at the time of the show’s debut) of elaborate robotic contraptions, aliens, holograms, and whimsical inventions. The original series comprised 24 episodes and aired on Sunday nights on ABC beginning September 23, 1962, with primetime reruns continuing through September 22, 1963. It debuted as the first program broadcast in color on ABC-TV. (Only a handful of ABC-TV stations were capable of broadcasting in color in the early 1960s.)

In contrast, The Flintstones, while always produced in color, was broadcast in black-and-white for its first two seasons. Following its primetime run, the show aired on Saturday mornings for decades, starting on ABC for the 1963–64 season and then on CBS and NBC. New episodes were produced for syndication from 1985 to 1987.
