@@poweroffriendship2.0 To be fair, the Truman Show at least tried to integrate the ads as product placement rather than interrupt the viewing experience for the in-universe audience, at least during Truman's waking hours. Though I suppose maybe they also took commercial breaks during dull moments.

George Jetson and Jane Jetson's official ages are 40 and 33 respectively. Their oldest child Judy is 16, which would mean that Jane was around 16-17 when she was pregnant with her. The age difference means that George was 24 when he impregnated Jane.... OFFICIAL AGE not stated
I don't think she was lying bc in another ep judy says 16-17 is like a rational age to get married, and it's not like the joke was that she was ridiculous for thinking that bc no one reacts to it, it's considered normal in their time. I think the writers were def commentating on how in the future they expect ppl will start families younger, much like they joke abt george complaining it'd take him 30 secs to buy gas. of course it's not impossible jane was lying tho lol
@@16driver16Bare in mind that Eddie is British, so he's used to an age of consent of 16. The issues he have are basically the fact that it would have implicitly been a large relative age gap and that even if she can give consent she probably shouldn't be getting pregnant at that age.

Flying cars are honestly the most terrifying thing imaginable. People can’t drive correctly on the ground, and you expect them to suddenly do fine in the sky?! Imagine a tiny 9/11 every hour as drivers of flying cars crash into office buildings or people’s homes.
@@darrennew8211 .......you know i feel like a complete dumbass for never making the connection, hell if an actual flying car were to exist it would probably had the exact same security policies
Also the air traffic you know their be some people who will crash into each other for some reason of another and some people will fly with a damaged engine or part essentially to control the thing or fly with not working or malfunctioning display
@@ironmaster6496 Actually it's the other way around. Every kind of vehicle license land air and water requires actual demonstration of high skill except for a "regular" drivers license. Then people blame speeding and other such horseshit for all the crashes instead of not having a skill requirement in the first place (most of the deaths are low speed areas to begin with). Consequently actually all other forms of vehicle being able to go high speed is considered the goal with stick up ass attitudes about speeds only existing for motor vehicles in unskilled settings. My hatred for open highway limits and the almost pride among the majority of "drivers" as to how little skill they want to have to be able to drive has helped ensure I always kept a healthy amount of train obsession.
The dark theory of _The Jetsons Meet The Flintstones_ crossover implying that Bedrock happened to be a post-apocalyptic future makes me think that it's just _Fallout_ in disguise. If that's the reason why _The Flintstones_ celebrated Christmas in the BC era, then this went from 0 to 100 real quick.
I remember reading multiple times during the 00s about a fan theory that The Flintstones were the people doing all the base material work on the ground while the Jetsons lived in relative luxury above the cloudline. EDIT: This actually comes up in the video, l o l
The main dark thing I recall off the top of my head from the crossover was Elroy had never seen grass before, and George only knew about it from schoolbooks.
I thought the reason why they celebrated Christmas was because it was set in an alternate universe, where modern living was always a thing and Christmas just happened to have already existed at that point for some reason. After all, while it's true Christmas wasn't a thing in the BC era, the same is true in regards to caveman living like modern folk with whatever creative and crazy methods they could have come up with.
If it’s one thing I’ve learned from being a fan of Disney theme parks is the pop culture understanding of “the future” of the American 1950s/60s were more dystopian than most dystopian media and it’s wild how many people were hoping for that future. Walt Disneys original epcot plan before his death was a actual human zoo: where every residents house was on display to the theme park guests, your home was to be constantly upgraded to showcase future technology with residents being unable to object, The likelihood of voting for a Mayor or local council to represent the residents would be shady at best since the entire city would be managed by Walt, And if you refuse to work or got too old they literally kick you out.

The Jane age debate is funny and all, but I think we all forget just how common and even expected it was for women to lie about their age in past decades. She was probably intended to be older but it would've "looked bad" for the era's standards (which are another can of worms on its own)

I think the #1 thing to prevent hypothetical futures from becoming dated is to avoid specific dates as much as possible. In Fahrenheit 451, the year 2021 is mentioned once but other than that, the date is kept ambiguous. The world of the book is the future from the point of view of the 1950s, sure, but still the book remains “timeless” in that the themes it presents seem to always be relevant. The topics of cens*rship and free thought were important ones in the fifties and are still important today, so it seems like they always will be. Unless you have a specific event or series of events that sets this future apart from our own, like in Fallout with the microchip not being invented and the great war.
Like imagine that too much people think in our fast development a few examples: 1 in book with facts that my father bought at end of 90s in cathegory about population they thought that nigeria would be populated by 240 or 260 milion people by 2020 when now there lives only 180 milion and it's most populated country in africa we need to say 2 space odyssey 2001 was recorded in 70s and people already thought that in 2001 we will be so expanded into space when now we can't even land again on a moon 3 in 70s there was also big panic related to massive population growth that earth will be completly overpopulated by 50 years forward when it appeard that not only we developded ideas that patched those problems but also it appeard that this population growth is much slower than they thought and that some countries that are heavily populated with big density in many places that have good economy started to decline because of many things and i think that this will happen to some african countries because of economical growth
Uplink kinda embraced it, actually. The game was set in... 2010, and considered technology to have gone _quadratically Moore's Law_ (to the point that a *60GHz CPU* is considered "slow"). When 2010 itself came around, Introversion Software was like "fuck it, game's set in the past now lol" and that was that.
I mean alt future also works. Bu simply changing one event in known history you split it off from however the future goes ‘in reality’. But there is also a time capsule element to anything that is ‘photographed’ (film/video included) everything from the capture deviced used to what actors wear are a sign of the times (for animation this includes the animation style as well). How people predicted ‘the future’ in the 60s is inherently different from how people predicted the future in the 90s as the markers of when it was filmed just aren’t timeless. Where as a book you will always invent for yourself at the time you read it.
We already have many bad drivers in regular cars, bad drivers in flying vehicles would even worse. First the crash, then gravity does its thing, landing on top of whoever/whatever happens to be below
Alternatively, flying cars are essentially just human guided missiles, which everyone has, and which can take off from everywhere. Its a lot harder to stop flying vehicles moving in 3d space from going where they aren't supposed to, and they are pretty much required to be moving faster, and carrying more energy dense fuels. It would be a security nightmare trying to make sure people don't smash into the often fairly fragile upper exteriors of buildings.
I just realized I haven't heard anyone use that line Jane stop this crazy thing in 20 years now. The last time I heard a reference to it was The Fairly odd Parents in 2004.
Im gonna be honest. I just assume Jane is lying about her age in that first episode as part of the joke. Like shes 37 or something but doesnt wanna be a number that rounds up.
About the ground point, I remember that the SCP Wiki did an interesting take on what's down there in an article about a TV remote that could move around and see stuff off-camera in other shows: they had a 50s-style nuclear family called The Jacksons living in a huge, thick cloud of pollution from all the machines above.
yeah there was smog in the sky so they had the apartment building raised further up; they also used this to change the weather around them. and as shown in the vid it seems mainly poor ppl and animals live on the ground
I've done a full history report on the video call and you missed something important. In germany in 1936 they had video phone booths, like a normal phone booth but with a black and white TV and a camera. The first ever live TV broadcast was in 1929, so the tech was barely new. The german video phone booth network expanded to over 1000km of line by 1938 but it was shut down in the 40s to be used for the war.
I didn't know that. I thought the first videophones were installed in 1984 by the German Telekom. AFAIK ISDN was developed specifically for the 64kbit circuits required for video. Oddly video calls didn't become popular until 2003 with Skype, even though the SIP protocol had existed for years at the time and allowed telephone and video calls between the internet and the plain old phone system. To think that the only science fiction element about video calls was the colour…

I think the car stops when it’s out of gas but still floats so George Jetson secretly had a jetpack so whenever he ran out of gas he just puts the jetpack on and gets out and starts pushing it to the gas station to fill it up with gas.
This occured in one episode. The entire car has a parachute. He pushed it to an automated filling station. His face and card were photographed, and two power pills were dropped into his car.
I vaguely recall a bunch of animated movies involving WWE stars (Scooby Doo, the atrocious Surfs Up sequel) as a desperate attempt to appeal to younger viewers
I remember them raising the buildings to climb above the pollution in at least one episode. So I always thought the ground level was abandoned due to another century of pollution and climate change.
In one episode they raise the building above a storm cloud to avoid the rain. In the movie they do so to avoid pollution like you say, but sadly they then never follow up with this, so we have no idea how it affects the ground (which would be interesting to see)
Is Jane 33 or is she "33". When she says she is 33, she could mean that she is 33 with 10 years experience. I also think this video is a subtle way of Eddy saying he got a vasectomy. /s

My nan back in the 50s was married at 16 had her first at 17 and and her sixth by 25. Also I might add that there was a running joke in the 80s that woman lied about there age a lot. That might explain a few things.
My dad was 25 and my mom was two weeks shy of her 18th birthday when they first met. They concocted me a few months later, and they are still together at 65 and 57. These things happen, it wasn't considered weird back when the Jetsons were made.
Jetson future: *2hr workdays, flying cars, robot servants* Actual future: *10+hr workdays, climate apocalypse, AI is making art and the humans are the slaves*
technically flying cars do exist. over in dubai there are flying police cars and theres a website called skysurfer aircraft thats selling their product that can allow people to ride on it. honestly its amazing that technology has progressed so much.
Flying cars have been a reality since at least 1947. They just never took off because they are not very practical in practice and also because they require both a driver's licence and a pilot licence.
Actually the first real video calls were 30 years before the Jetsons in Germany during the 1936 olympics. Right along with their television experiments. Its actually not that hard to do once you have a working TV system.
I never liked thst theory of the Filtstones being on the ground. Why don't we ever see any futuristic buildings or flying cars in the sky if that's the case?

Gilligan's Island was seven white people who went on a sight-seeing tour in Hawaii in 1964. Not implausible. They did have non-whites as natives, and Walt Hazzard as an Air Force officer in one episode.
@@dansmith1661 Thurston and Lovey Howell, their haughty, aristocratic ways notwithstanding, actually mingle well with the crew (Skipper and Gilliagan), and the other passengers: "Professor" Roy Hinkley, Ginger Grant (an up and coming actress, and, unless she's been taken advantage of financially, we know she's likely been "taken advantage" of, at least on the "casting couch", with some money ofher own), and Maryanne Summers, who supposedly has a fiancé back in Kansas, so why she's in Hawaii on a cruise by herself makes no sense. In the first few episodes, when the castaways realize that rescue may be weeks if not months away (ends up quite a few years, so why nature hadn't taken its course and the "cast" of the castaways had, er...EXPANDED (along with the girls' hips)) is puzzling...) they commence to build a communal hut, and Thurston Howell is seen apply a pitch compound that the Professor had concocted.

This got me thinking about how Meet the Robinsons future. It appears fun and whimsical and a place where they embrace the eccentricities in everyone but then when you realize how the society revolves around Cornelius and his inventions, the fact he became out of touch where he left the orphanage in disrepair and then the throwaway line about Canada getting annexed. It’s a technocratic empire!
I don't think the writers are consciously consistent with the age of the characters and the era that they are living in just like most long running cartoons, especially those being massproduced in the dark ages as well as most writers aren't that good at math like passage of time. Many things get lost in communications between the writers and the fans tries to make sense of the mess by filling the gaps that leads to unintentional implications. Or maybe there are multiple Jetsons living in different multiverses with time machines. Also the average human gestation time is 9 months so Jane could still be 18 already from the conception but the internet would still be mad regardless due to age gap.
Beats what we wound up with. Instead of living in a clean (if a bit sterile) futuristic utopia, we spent over a year hiding behind closed doors from a plague like Welcome back to the 15th century. If we'd been foretold of 9/11, war in Afghanistan, Katrina, the worst recession since the 1930s, climate change, and other joys the 21st century's given us so far, we'd have all screamed "Jane, stop this crazy thing!"
francise was to old. and i think more important...most science fiction today was grim and dark. people ecpect a judge dreed future. idiocratic or ready player one. the prediction of the jetsons would be simply to optemistic to fit for the todays market (look at Tomorrowland ( 2015)as prime example. the original idea presend a optemistic world that solve most shit. but then the stop trying to make ourer world better isloate themselfe and just watch that WE will end the world... prime example how they make a original idea grim and dark to fi with todays viewers) ... and if they make the jetsons grimm and dark... they would ruin the core of the francise...
Neither of those films did well but no surprise both movies were based on shows, at least, from 40 years ago at the time. There was no nostalgia for them by that point
Here's the thing though, I'm watching this from June 29th, 2024 and it's the day of the release. That means the deed has already been done and George's mother will pop in 1 months, thus negating the point.

Having a child as a women at 18 can be a deliberate choice made by the woman who is an adult. This is not so common nowadays, but it still happens. There’s no need to shame and judge this young parent. The partner being a few years older (say 25) makes a lot of sense; the partner needs to work to provide for the family. Saying this age gap of 7 years is “problematic” is a very contemporary and very american thing. It doesn’t have to be problematic at all. Now, a 40 year old with a 16 (or even younger!) child bride is awful of course. But there’s no need to conflate that with consenting adults of 18 and 25, and shame them for their life choices. Both starting your family young or waiting a bit have their pros and cons.
Well, it is a bit problematic. Assuming she knew George a bit before then, it would mean we have a guy out of college dating a girl who is still in high school. And not even a senior in high school. Of course, it would be a whirlwind romance, but, if treated as a normal example rather than an exception... That said, as plenty of others have said, women lying about their age is/was a pretty standard thing, and tied to the entire "don't ask a woman her age" thing, so, most likely, Jane saying her age is just another standard joke, to go along with the mother-in-law and women driver ones.
There's a chapter in "The Martian Chronicles" (1950) by Ray Bradbury called "Way in the Middle of the Air." It's about Black Americans fleeing the Jim Crow South for newly-established colonies on Mars. Kind of puts that whole "Martians go home" thing in a different light.

In the crossover film, when leaving the Flintstones era to return home, Elroy sets the time machine to go to the 'past'. Probably an animation error, but it's what's led to all the theories that the Flintstones is set after the Jetsons in some kind of post-apocalyptic future.
Them: "Oh no, the Jetsons doesn't conform to our current social norms! That's BAD!" Me: "So uh, if I don't manage to pay rent or taxes in the future, do they just throw me off into the aether? Yeah, I'd probably be the guy on the ground." Also, of all birds, the crows would probably be fine.

Did you seriously call someone who gave birth when they were 18 a child bride? You know it doesn't take a full year to give conceive and birth a child, right? You also know that a woman in a 60s sitcom isn't necessarily going to give her *real age* right?
at the 9:00 point about them trying to retcon their age different then backpedalling,, nothing stops George being in college in his mid-twenties. or taking a few years into it instead of rushing at that. when I did college here, a few took 10 years to finish (that, to be fair, is the time limit), and some focused on working and ended up not finishing at all but did count as students until then.
It has always disturbed me how in the Jetsons, everyone lives so high above the ground. Why? Like what is so horribly wrong with the planets' surface that no one lives down there?!
It’s polluted. Also p much everyone has flying vehicles and anti-gravity belts and such by then anyhow so they prolly figured it’s better to live up high
Or it could be the situation where I forget how old I am because I hit my 30s and now have to do math to figure it out. Having a step kid who is 17 also doesn't help
I think you're reading far too much into the race thing, to be completely honest. Consider the context of the show. This was BEFORE the civil rights movement. Including a character that looked different than the rest would have been a controversial distraction away from everything else the show had to say. The show wasn't predicting that there wouldn't be black people. It was just showing scenes that didn't have any in them, without asserting anything about whether or not they exist.
That was a joke a driver told me one day. We used to swap racist jokes about our respective races, so he'd tell black jokes I'd tell white jokes. Anyhow he told me this one. Him: "Hey, Williams... How many black people are in the Jetsons..." Me: "Uhm... There's... Holy shit I don't... There's none!" Him: "See? Future's looking up already."
My favorite part of the Jetsons video call technology was the "answering machine" seen when George had to convince Jane he was working late. A cardboard cutout of George propped up in front of the camera and a record player that would automatically play the same message over and over when she called.
BUT WAIT A MINUTE! We already saw that one kid in school was watching The Flintstones on his watch. When The Jetsons met The Flintstones could they have been traveling through... TELEVISION?!?!
13:55, you could also argue that the increase in number and dependency of cars, flying or otherwise, makes being a pedestrian increasingly dangerous, and that in this future, only the poor walk. There doesn’t seem to be many alternatives to driving available for most residents of the jetsons.
As a Brazilian, the random "hello" by Graham Bell amuses me more than it should. (From stories about Bell and his invention not catching any attention until his friend Emperor Pedro the Magnificent spotted him and suddenly everyone was "who's this handsome gentleman who's on first name basis with the Emperor?")
Overanalyzing the Jetsons is a fruitless enterprise, at best. Why? Because nothing was really cannon or logical, it was just a fun show with not fixed reality. Kind of like The Little Rascals. Hey! That would a been a great cross-over episode, "The Jetsons meet The Little Rascals".

Actually it's the other way around. Every kind of vehicle license land air and water requires actual demonstration of high skill except for a "regular" drivers license. Then people blame speeding and other such horseshit for all the crashes instead of not having a skill requirement in the first place (most of the deaths are low speed areas to begin with). Consequently actually all other forms of vehicle being able to go high speed is considered the goal with stick up ass attitudes about speeds only existing for motor vehicles in unskilled settings. My hatred for open highway limits and the almost pride among the majority of "drivers" as to how little skill they want to have to be able to drive has helped ensure I always kept a healthy amount of train obsession.

After all, while it's true Christmas wasn't a thing in the BC era, the same is true in regards to caveman living like modern folk with whatever creative and crazy methods they could have come up with.
If it’s one thing I’ve learned from being a fan of Disney theme parks is the pop culture understanding of “the future” of the American 1950s/60s were more dystopian than most dystopian media and it’s wild how many people were hoping for that future. Walt Disneys original epcot plan before his death was a actual human zoo: where every residents house was on display to the theme park guests, your home was to be constantly upgraded to showcase future technology with residents being unable to object, The likelihood of voting for a Mayor or local council to represent the residents would be shady at best since the entire city would be managed by Walt, And if you refuse to work or got too old they literally kick you out.
Mmm creepy

The Jane age debate is funny and all, but I think we all forget just how common and even expected it was for women to lie about their age in past decades. She was probably intended to be older but it would've "looked bad" for the era's standards (which are another can of worms on its own)
First certain women can find they’re weight embarrassing, now they’re age?!

I think the #1 thing to prevent hypothetical futures from becoming dated is to avoid specific dates as much as possible. In Fahrenheit 451, the year 2021 is mentioned once but other than that, the date is kept ambiguous. The world of the book is the future from the point of view of the 1950s, sure, but still the book remains “timeless” in that the themes it presents seem to always be relevant. The topics of cens*rship and free thought were important ones in the fifties and are still important today, so it seems like they always will be.
Unless you have a specific event or series of events that sets this future apart from our own, like in Fallout with the microchip not being invented and the great war.
Like imagine that too much people think in our fast development a few examples:
1 in book with facts that my father bought at end of 90s in cathegory about population they thought that nigeria would be populated by 240 or 260 milion people by 2020 when now there lives only 180 milion and it's most populated country in africa we need to say
2 space odyssey 2001 was recorded in 70s and people already thought that in 2001 we will be so expanded into space when now we can't even land again on a moon
3 in 70s there was also big panic related to massive population growth that earth will be completly overpopulated by 50 years forward when it appeard that not only we developded ideas that patched those problems but also it appeard that this population growth is much slower than they thought and that some countries that are heavily populated with big density in many places that have good economy started to decline because of many things and i think that this will happen to some african countries because of economical growth
Uplink kinda embraced it, actually. The game was set in... 2010, and considered technology to have gone _quadratically Moore's Law_ (to the point that a *60GHz CPU* is considered "slow"). When 2010 itself came around, Introversion Software was like "fuck it, game's set in the past now lol" and that was that.
Literally just censored yourself and kinda made the book’s point more relatable.
@@carsoncas5355 woosh? Cant tell if you got the joke sry
I mean alt future also works. Bu simply changing one event in known history you split it off from however the future goes ‘in reality’.
But there is also a time capsule element to anything that is ‘photographed’ (film/video included) everything from the capture deviced used to what actors wear are a sign of the times (for animation this includes the animation style as well). How people predicted ‘the future’ in the 60s is inherently different from how people predicted the future in the 90s as the markers of when it was filmed just aren’t timeless. Where as a book you will always invent for yourself at the time you read it.
We already have many bad drivers in regular cars, bad drivers in flying vehicles would even worse. First the crash, then gravity does its thing, landing on top of whoever/whatever happens to be below
well sheeple are idiots. i had to vote "no" on speed increase not becuase of me but becuase of other peaople :/.
Alternatively, flying cars are essentially just human guided missiles, which everyone has, and which can take off from everywhere. Its a lot harder to stop flying vehicles moving in 3d space from going where they aren't supposed to, and they are pretty much required to be moving faster, and carrying more energy dense fuels. It would be a security nightmare trying to make sure people don't smash into the often fairly fragile upper exteriors of buildings.

About the ground point, I remember that the SCP Wiki did an interesting take on what's down there in an article about a TV remote that could move around and see stuff off-camera in other shows: they had a 50s-style nuclear family called The Jacksons living in a huge, thick cloud of pollution from all the machines above.

I've done a full history report on the video call and you missed something important. In germany in 1936 they had video phone booths, like a normal phone booth but with a black and white TV and a camera. The first ever live TV broadcast was in 1929, so the tech was barely new. The german video phone booth network expanded to over 1000km of line by 1938 but it was shut down in the 40s to be used for the war.
I didn't know that. I thought the first videophones were installed in 1984 by the German Telekom. AFAIK ISDN was developed specifically for the 64kbit circuits required for video.
Oddly video calls didn't become popular until 2003 with Skype, even though the SIP protocol had existed for years at the time and allowed telephone and video calls between the internet and the plain old phone system.
To think that the only science fiction element about video calls was the colour…
Never would I expect Jet Lag the Game and Jessie Gender to both be mentioned in an Eddache video. Nebula is the wildest collab project hands down.
And it's tv so we just imagined the off camera, off stage stuff was still there and overlooked it lack of presence.

If George Jetson runs out of gas in his flying car -- what happens? Does he fall or does he stay stuck in the sky?
He has a choice - go down with the car, or jump out and get eaten by a shark.
When his flying car breaks down, it does indeed get stuck in the air and they need to wait for a tow.
I think the car stops when it’s out of gas but still floats so George Jetson secretly had a jetpack so whenever he ran out of gas he just puts the jetpack on and gets out and starts pushing it to the gas station to fill it up with gas.
This occured in one episode. The entire car has a parachute.
He pushed it to an automated filling station. His face and card were photographed, and two power pills
were dropped into his car.
I vaguely recall a bunch of animated movies involving WWE stars (Scooby Doo, the atrocious Surfs Up sequel) as a desperate attempt to appeal to younger viewers
They should make an inverse to those by having WWE matches involving those same animated movie characters.
The animated crossovers of WWE are amazing
That was one of two Scooby doo episodes I watched
Scooby-doo had two at least
The Scooby Doo ones were decent, Jetsons WWE sucked l, and I haven't seen the Flintstones one, but the plot summary sounded potentially fun.
I remember them raising the buildings to climb above the pollution in at least one episode. So I always thought the ground level was abandoned due to another century of pollution and climate change.
In one episode they raise the building above a storm cloud to avoid the rain. In the movie they do so to avoid pollution like you say, but sadly they then never follow up with this, so we have no idea how it affects the ground (which would be interesting to see)
Maybe it was a wasteland in the past, but at least partially healed with time.
Is Jane 33 or is she "33". When she says she is 33, she could mean that she is 33 with 10 years experience. I also think this video is a subtle way of Eddy saying he got a vasectomy. /s

Flying cars have been a reality since at least 1947. They just never took off because they are not very practical in practice and also because they require both a driver's licence and a pilot licence.
Actually the first real video calls were 30 years before the Jetsons in Germany during the 1936 olympics. Right along with their television experiments. Its actually not that hard to do once you have a working TV system.

In the first few episodes, when the castaways realize that rescue may be weeks if not months away (ends up quite a few years, so why nature hadn't taken its course and the "cast" of the castaways had, er...EXPANDED (along with the girls' hips)) is puzzling...) they commence to build a communal hut, and Thurston Howell is seen apply a pitch compound that the Professor had concocted.

It appears fun and whimsical and a place where they embrace the eccentricities in everyone but then when you realize how the society revolves around Cornelius and his inventions, the fact he became out of touch where he left the orphanage in disrepair and then the throwaway line about Canada getting annexed. It’s a technocratic empire!
I don't think the writers are consciously consistent with the age of the characters and the era that they are living in just like most long running cartoons, especially those being massproduced in the dark ages as well as most writers aren't that good at math like passage of time. Many things get lost in communications between the writers and the fans tries to make sense of the mess by filling the gaps that leads to unintentional implications.
Or maybe there are multiple Jetsons living in different multiverses with time machines. Also the average human gestation time is 9 months so Jane could still be 18 already from the conception but the internet would still be mad regardless due to age gap.
Beats what we wound up with. Instead of living in a clean (if a bit sterile) futuristic utopia, we spent over a year hiding behind closed doors from a plague like Welcome back to the 15th century. If we'd been foretold of 9/11, war in Afghanistan, Katrina, the worst recession since the 1930s, climate change, and other joys the 21st century's given us so far, we'd have all screamed "Jane, stop this crazy thing!"

Having a child as a women at 18 can be a deliberate choice made by the woman who is an adult. This is not so common nowadays, but it still happens. There’s no need to shame and judge this young parent. The partner being a few years older (say 25) makes a lot of sense; the partner needs to work to provide for the family. Saying this age gap of 7 years is “problematic” is a very contemporary and very american thing. It doesn’t have to be problematic at all.
Now, a 40 year old with a 16 (or even younger!) child bride is awful of course. But there’s no need to conflate that with consenting adults of 18 and 25, and shame them for their life choices. Both starting your family young or waiting a bit have their pros and cons.
Well, it is a bit problematic. Assuming she knew George a bit before then, it would mean we have a guy out of college dating a girl who is still in high school. And not even a senior in high school. Of course, it would be a whirlwind romance, but, if treated as a normal example rather than an exception...
That said, as plenty of others have said, women lying about their age is/was a pretty standard thing, and tied to the entire "don't ask a woman her age" thing, so, most likely, Jane saying her age is just another standard joke, to go along with the mother-in-law and women driver ones.

Including a character that looked different than the rest would have been a controversial distraction away from everything else the show had to say. The show wasn't predicting that there wouldn't be black people. It was just showing scenes that didn't have any in them, without asserting anything about whether or not they exist.
That was a joke a driver told me one day. We used to swap racist jokes about our respective races, so he'd tell black jokes I'd tell white jokes.
Anyhow he told me this one.
Him: "Hey, Williams... How many black people are in the Jetsons..."
Me: "Uhm... There's... Holy shit I don't... There's none!"
Him: "See? Future's looking up already."
My favorite part of the Jetsons video call technology was the "answering machine" seen when George had to convince Jane he was working late. A cardboard cutout of George propped up in front of the camera and a record player that would automatically play the same message over and over when she called.
BUT WAIT A MINUTE! We already saw that one kid in school was watching The Flintstones on his watch. When The Jetsons met The Flintstones could they have been traveling through... TELEVISION?!?!
The most interesting thing about the 1990 Jetsons movie, is Elroy is voiced by Patric Zimmerman. His other notable role, is Revolver Ocelot.

Wait, The Jetsons was originally only on for a year? What an impact it made in such a short time!
13:55, you could also argue that the increase in number and dependency of cars, flying or otherwise, makes being a pedestrian increasingly dangerous, and that in this future, only the poor walk. There doesn’t seem to be many alternatives to driving available for most residents of the jetsons.
The magnificent far off year of 2002”

**Birdman looks at the date and it's 2004**
Okay.
As a Brazilian, the random "hello" by Graham Bell amuses me more than it should.
(From stories about Bell and his invention not catching any attention until his friend Emperor Pedro the Magnificent spotted him and suddenly everyone was "who's this handsome gentleman who's on first name basis with the Emperor?")
16:47 did anyone else think this was setting up a punchline that Eddie had another baby and was naming him George?
Overanalyzing the Jetsons is a fruitless enterprise, at best. Why? Because nothing was really cannon or logical, it was just a fun show with not fixed reality. Kind of like The Little Rascals.
Hey! That would a been a great cross-over episode, "The Jetsons meet The Little Rascals".
George Jetson to Mister Hood; "What the hell is a headache in a stomach?!",
Mister Hood; "OOhhhh, Don't ask, these children annoy me to no end, Oh, Mamma, this shall be the death of me"

Well that explains “ hooba dooba” from the Sonic Zombies videos
So you took a trip to Belgium only for this? What dedication!
3:11 eddy not you noooooooooooooo
The video call actually already existed in pre-ww2 Germany. It was invented BEFORE this show. But ww2 kind wrecked that.
19:25 As someone with experience with countless failed "TH-cam alternatives" and seen plenty of others fall by the wayside, Nebula doesn't sound worth my time. Sounds an awful lot like Vessel. Which quickly sold out to Verizon and like Blip being sold to Disney, was subsequently shut down. Those who don't learn from the mistakes of the past are doomed to repeat them.
Nebula has been around for a while now - I think I’ve been subscribed for three to four years.
@@neiltarrant7253 Zippcast somehow lasted five years in spite of being garbage the whole time and only died because some of us users realized what an absolute piece of work the site's owner was and the site's owner shut the place down because said owner was a malignant narcissist who had only been keeping the site up so the owner could get undue positive attention. It was hardly the only one run by someone so obviously not qualified to run a social media website too.
So yea, that means very little to me.
I usually try to avoid commenting before watching/finishing a video, but I'm going to indulge myself just this once: I really hope this video gets a chance to use that popular clip from "Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law"!
Edit: Hell yeah it was there!
