40+ Nostalgic Cartoons Kids Today Are Missing Out On

Launched between 1962-1963 with a $300,000 budget per episode, The Jetsons, created by Hanna-Barbera, served as a humorous glimpse into the future as envisioned in the 60s, featuring robots, aliens, and holograms alongside George O’Hanlon and others.

Despite its brief run, The Jetsons left a significant mark, eschewing social commentary for child-friendly space adventures. The lavish spending of $300,000 per episode paved the way for future adaptations, including a 1990s film grossing $20.3 million.
