      Interesting cross-over that mostly works well

      'The Jetsons Meet the Flintstones' had an intriguing premise, taking two difficult families and putting them into different universes and meshing them together. Was a little worried as to whether the two would gel but actually it mostly works well, coming from somebody who really likes 'The Jetsons' and loves 'The Flintstones' (still one of my favourites).

      Not without its flaws by all means. To me the biggest flaw was Judy's rock star romantic subplot, that went absolutely nowhere and was practically neglected. It just felt unnecessary for it to be there in the first place when so little was done with it and like it was there solely to pad out the running time. Too many of the characters have too little screen time, some even completely wasted, and with little to do.

      Animation quality is uneven, faring better with The Jetsons, where some vibrancy and imagination can be seen, than with The Flintstones, where things look cruder and more rushed-looking.

      However, both the Jetson and Flintstone families are immensely enjoyable and are well characterised, especially Fred and George. The terrific voice cast, full of highly respected voice actors who give their all and succeed brilliantly, helps hugely. There are some nice small details as well, such as Fred being given his favourite breakfast as a way of persuasion by Wilma for a vacation.

      Writing is very amusing, perhaps borrowing a little some gags from both shows, but the humour is very true in spirit to both shows, corny but often very funny and smart (especially with The Flintstones). The story deals with the fish out of water premise in a way that's compelling and fun to watch and gives a real sense of nostalgia, which are enough to compensate for its relative predictability and one useless subplot.

      Overall, interesting and mostly works well. As far as the "Superstar 10" made for TV specials/films go, 'The Jetsons Meet the Flintstones' while not one of the best is a long way from one of the worst. 7/10 Bethany Cox

      Good one!

      I thought that the characters were really funny and all had great personalities. The animation in My opinion was crisp, clean, and really clear. Not to mention beautiful! Most of the characters in this show are like the hilarious Looney Tunes characters that we all love. in My opinion these characters are the funnies and talented ever seen. In fact, The things that goes on in this series' cartoons are in My opinion nuts which that is what makes them hilarious! There are so many to like and laugh at and the silly things they do! If you like the original Looney Tunes and animated films then I strongly recommend that you watch this movie today!

      So well done what a hit fun fun two great families meet and what an interesting time they have together

      Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm?

      I think the movie would have been even better if they had included teen-age Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm. I bet Judy would not only become fast friends with them but Penny, Wiggy and Moonrock as well as the rest of the Bedrock bunch.

      Culture shock!

      In this movie, two great Hanna-Barbera families are thrown together when Elroy Jetson accidently time warps his family to the Stone Age. Personally, I like George Jetson. He's funny, so it's easy for me to feel for him when he puts up with Mr. Spacely and the time warp. Mel Blanc can also prove he's capable of playing selfish people, but Mr. Spacely wasn't his best performance. I like Dino better.

        Elroy says he has it set for future, but a closeup of the time machine's switch shows it set to PAST. A later shot shows the switch falling from the Future position to Past.
