The Jetsons is an American animated sitcom produced by Hanna-Barbera, originally airing in primetime from 1962-1963, then later as part of the weekday / weekend morning programming block called The Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera, until 1987. New episodes were produced from 1984-1987 as well.

Hanna-Barbera started season two of The Jetsons in 1985! After two more seasons, they started production on Jetsons: The Movie ( 1990 ). After watching a lot of movies and TV shows that take place in a dark, dystopic, nightmarish future, The Jetsons feels like a breath of fresh air as The Jetsons takes place in a bright, fun, utopia of a future.
