A live-action pilot for the classic Hanna-Barbera cartoon The Jetsons has been given the green light by ABC. Written by Family Guy and Will & Grace writer, Gary Janetti, this reboot will take place in the year 2118, but few other details have been made public. Fans of the original series may be hoping that the classic theme song of the original series that begins with the line “meet George Jetson,” will remain mostly intact. For many who watched the series as children, it’s nearly impossible to even think of the show without the show’s theme song playing in our heads.
According to Entertainment Weekly, The Jetsons reboot will be executive produced by Robert Zemeckis and Jack Rapke. No word yet on who will be cast in the show’s main roles, which include George Jetson, his boy Elroy, his daughter Judy, and Jane, his wife.
