Editing The Jetsons (section)

==Proposed continuations and reboots==

A 1974 proposal would have created a sequel series to ''The Jetsons'', set roughly ten years after the original series. CBS rejected the proposal and it was retooled into ''[[Partridge Family 2200 A.D.]]''<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cmongethappy.com/2200/newpf2200.html|title=Partridge Family, 2200 A.D.: INTRODUCTION|website=www.cmongethappy.com|access-date=2016-04-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160610125804/http://www.cmongethappy.com/2200/newpf2200.html|archive-date=2016-06-10|url-status=live}}</ref>

[[Paramount Pictures]] first tried to film a live-action version of ''The Jetsons'' in 1985, which was to be executive produced by Gary Nardino, but failed to do so.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yD3XK2CCJKg|title=Paramount's Future- from 1985|date=8 October 2008 |publisher=YouTube|access-date=2014-06-05|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140706052450/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yD3XK2CCJKg|archive-date=2014-07-06|url-status=live}}</ref> In the late 1980s, [[Universal Pictures]] purchased the film rights for ''The Flintstones'' and ''The Jetsons'' from Hanna-Barbera Productions. The result was ''[[Jetsons: The Movie]]'', which was released in 1990. In November 2001, screenwriting duo Paul Foley and Dan Forman were brought onboard to revise a screenplay, with [[Rob Minkoff]] attached as director and [[Denise Di Novi]] as producer.<ref>{{cite magazine|url=https://variety.com/2001/film/news/jetsons-finds-rewrite-pair-1117856405/|title='Jetsons' finds rewrite pair|last=Dunkley|first=Cathy|magazine=[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]|date=November 27, 2001|access-date=April 9, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150704115500/http://variety.com/2001/film/news/jetsons-finds-rewrite-pair-1117856405/|archive-date=July 4, 2015|url-status=live}}</ref>

In May 2007, director [[Robert Rodriguez]] entered talks with [[Universal Pictures|Universal Studios]] and [[Warner Bros.]] to film a CGI adaptation of ''The Jetsons'' for a potential 2009 theatrical release, having at the time discussed directing a film adaptation of ''[[Land of the Lost (1974 TV series)|Land of the Lost]]'' with Universal. Rodriguez was uncertain which project he would pursue next, though the latest script draft for ''The Jetsons'' by Goldberg was further along in development.<ref>{{cite news|last=Kit|first=Borys|url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/news/e3i11ad0a8282fd52db145f3235c0a96b6a|title=Future or past for Rodriguez?|work=[[The Hollywood Reporter]]|date=2007-05-09|access-date=2007-07-16|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070525055030/http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/news/e3i11ad0a8282fd52db145f3235c0a96b6a|archive-date=2007-05-25|url-status=live}}</ref>
