The Jetsons and The Flintstones are similar, but yet they have many differences. They are both shows that watched by many. While many may like one show better there are a majority that like them both. In my opinion I think the Jetsons are better but I still like The Flintstones too.
The Differences
The Jetsons
The Jetsons lived in the future up in space. There are flying cars and machines that make breakfast, lunch, and dinner in under five minutes. The kids travel to school by tube and sit in hovering desks. Traveling tubes are similar to elevators but go in more directions than up and down. that took you from one destination to the next. Picture sitting at the bank and you put your money in the machine and it goes from your car into the

Spacely, makes gears for anything that needs gears. Mr. Spacely is a small man with a huge temper often yelling at George for small things. He cares a great deal about making lots and lots of money.
The Flintstones
The Flintstones live in prehistoric times (Stone Age). They used their feet to ¨drive¨ their car that was built out of sticks, cement and animal skin. Their house looked somewhat like a cave with a chimney. Everything from curtains to clothes to carpet, was animal skin. They were also often surrounded by dinosaurs even worked with them! Even though they lived in the stone age they were still up to date in the technology because they had a tv.
Compared to The Jetsons the The Flintstones where a blue collar family. Fred Flintstone worked at Slate Rock and Gravel Company as a bronto crane operator. Fred worked on top of a dinosaurs's . Moving a pulley-like system to raise the dinosaurs head up and down, moving rocks from one place to another. Mr. Slate was Fred Flintstone's boss just like George Jetson Mr. Slate would often get on Fred Flintstone’s case. He was a slender man who wore glasses and yelled for because he “Likes to ruin people's

In The Jetsons the daughter is around fifteen and the son around five or six. In The Flintstones their kids are toddlers. The son in The Jetsons is usually playing some type of sport and the daughter going to hang-out with her friends or going shopping a lot.
In both shows you can also notice they have a tv. In the 50’s and early 60’s was when tv’s first became popular. It seemed as if they were trying to pitch the idea of tv’s to people. Even though very few can tell The Jetsons aired in color but most tv’s could only be seen in black and white. As seeing that we are on the topic of trying to sell ideas The Flintstones would smoke Winston Cigarettes in order to get people to buy them.
Both shows also had pets that were to act as dogs. The Jetsons had a dog named Astro and The Flintstones had a purple dinosaur named Deeno that acted like a dog. The dog in The Jetsons could talk unlike Deeno, which he couldn’t. The dogs were mostly well trained on account of they sometimes would annoy the fathers/husbands. The families seemed to really enjoy their pets.
My Opinion is The Jetsons are better because first I think they have more color and idea than The
Living in the Paleolithic age must have extremely difficult. I just read the book Maroo of the Winter Caves , by Ann Turnbell. This book tells about Maroo and her family, This book tells a lot about how life was like back then. It's mainly about Maroo and her family having to travel from the winter caves, back to the autumn hunting grounds.While they try to travel back, they get into many obstacles that they have to over come, Mainly trying to overcome time and nature. Our life is extremely different today, then Maroo's life thousands of years ago, Some of these differences are the shelter we inhabit, the clothing we wear,
Firstly, there is a difference in time periods. Matty’s story is in the 1790s, while Lisa’s story was futuristic. There is also a difference in character. They both seem rebellious, but it seems Matty would not boss around a community, but Lisa would. “Because Glenbard is MINE. It belongs to ME. And I’m not letting anybody take it from me.” –Lisa, The Girl Who Owned a City. Finally, Matty seems a more caring person than Lisa. Lisa seems more concerned about the welfare of a community than the happiness and freedom of each individual person.
The Andy Griffith Show and I love Lucy have been two of the most watched shows in the history of television aired on CBS. I Love Lucy was a scripted sitcom recorded in front of a live studio audience with multiple cameras to give it better comic energy. It took place in an apartment in New York and her husband was an upcoming Cuban American who sung in a band. Although this was a black and white film, Lucy and Ricardo had colorful personalities. Lucy was always dressed nicely and Ricardo was always in a suit or business like attire. The house was always spotless as she was a housewife and an excellent mother later on. Lucy had a way of getting into trouble but Ricky somehow managed to get them out. She also displayed some traits that women were stereotyped for such as not showing or looking your age, being careless with money, and other secretive things. Ricardo on the other hand was the total opposite of Lucy which in the end balanced out their relationship. He has more patience than most and when he gets extremely mad, he would speak reall...
The early 1960s saw the expansion of television. The television had become a common household
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (2007) women’s labor force participation raised from 33.9% in 1950 to 57.5% in 1990. The TV shows Married with Children and Roseanne are similar and different in the way they portray that statistic through their gender roles. Married with Children shows the more traditional type of gender roles, while Roseanne shows gender roles that were not as common in past decades. Both shows exemplify gender roles that were common and rare compared to decades prior. The TV shows, Married with Children and Roseanne are similar and different because of the gender roles each television show displays.
In the last fifty years television has evolved tremendously, especially sitcoms. For example, in 1969 The Brady Bunch aired a show that featured two broken families coming together to form a seemingly ‘perfect’ blended one. The television show emphasized the importance of appreciating your loved ones, as well as surmounting challenges that teenagers face in everyday life. In 2009, the perhaps ‘modern’ Brady Bunch aired on ABC, Modern Family. This show focuses on three families, and highlights non-traditional families, illustrating that there is no ‘perfect’ family. In the forty nine year gap between the two programs, social and cultural issues such as gay marriage, adoption, and multicultural marriages have made
In the early fifties, young people watched TV more hours than they went to school, a trend which has not changed greatly since that time. What was portrayed on television became accepted as normal. Shows like What's a My Line debut on CBS, Your Hit Parade premieres on NBC in 1950. In April of 1950 5,343,000 TV sets are in American Homes. In May of 1950, 103 TV Stations in 60 cities were operating. In September 7,535,000 TV sets in USA. In October there were 8,000,000 TV sets.

The houses in the summer were built out in the open so the wing would keep the bugs off the house. In the winter, the houses would be built in the forest so the wind would be kept away from the house to keep warm. Canoes would be built so they could travel and fish on the water. Snowshoes were made to keep feet warm so they could walk and travel in the snow in the winter. Toboggans were made to carry all of the supplies they had through the snow.
Television is the guide to the past present and future. It has guided the world since the early 1900’s, bringing information and entertainment right to your home. It’s incredible just how much television changed from then until now, and with it, the world. Two television shows in particular helped with the disbursement of ideas; I Love Lucy, and The Andy Griffith Show. What are these shows, what is so different about these two shows, and what ideals led to the world being the way it is today?
Despite not having an established society or economy, man in the Paleolithic Age had increasing technology. Their weapons and tools were made of wood and stone, and they had manifested the ability to control fire. The Paleolithic Age also berthed language and thus established the first historical backgrounds of modern man. Paleolithic art gives the background for the culture of the time. Depicting a society classed only by sex: Men hunted, made weaponry and tools, and fought other nomadic bands; Women gathered, made clothing, and bore children.
Then how we shop would be different because in the Jetson’s television show they have a conveyor belt at the mall. The Jetson’s show you can get off when you arrive to that store. In our society we have to drive and walk to go to the store. The Jetson’s have to not walk for that reason is they have a conveyor belt o stand on. In the Jetson’s society when someone go to the store they have videophones, where a person can order
It was not until the year 1964 when programs designed for kids were produced and aired. From the late 1940’s to the early 1970’s, local television stations shaped a golden age of children’s television that was somehow set apart from the stereotypical American broadcasting. Despite the show barely holding on to their budgets, the programs were definitely equipped with being creative and had a rich fanbase. In 1972, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) changed the regulations governing the relationship between sponsors and local programming, effectively bringing the genre to a close since the programs operated under strict budgetary constraints, a golden age of children’s television unique in American broadcasting.
