What Parents Need to Know
About The Jetsons
Parents need to know that this classic cartoon deals with old-fashioned family values in a futuristic setting. Although financial security and family relationships are important to the Jetson family, some of today's viewers may find the traditional male/female roles a little dated.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about technology. How does technology make the simple things in life easier? Can technology make life more complicated? Is the Jetson family too dependent on technology? What would life be like for them if they didn't have all those technological devices? Are there any "futuristic" inventions on the show that now actually exist? Which inventions would you like to see created?

I LOVE THE JETSONS.

Not that into it
I thought my kids would really like the Jetsons, but they really aren't into it. They would much rather watch the Flintstones. As far as my kids are concerned the only thing the Jetsons have going for them is the car that turns into a briefcase.
- Lives in VirginiaI rate this title iffy for age 8 and give it
Jetson's boss will sometimes smoke cigar and lose his temper. And of course his boss is all about commercialism since he runs some sort of company.

Watched when little. Why was it canceled?!

Ugh...
This show is so depressing. Female role models aside, George gets fired in almost every episode and almost seems on the brink of suicide. If MY boss was as waffley as Mr. Spacely, I'd look for a new job! Around the time i stopped watching this show, my mom (single parent) had been laid off from her job. I don't feel comfortable at all with this show!
