Jetsons Halloween Special?

[John-Paul]

I read on some website (forgot what it was) that in either 84 or 85 that there was a Jetsons Halloween special.What was it about and how come it never aired on CN?

A Halloween special? That's news to me. All I remember was "The Jetsons Christmas Carol". (Where Astro swollows A part from A robot cat) That's about it.

Don't recall a Halloween special of the Jetsons, either. Wonder what would scare them, though... having to do actual manual labor? A world without computers? Actual nature/scenery (since we never saw the Earth's surface on the show)? Luddites? Last names that aren't bad "space" puns? :-)

There was an episode from 1985 titled "Haunted Halloween." That is probably what was being referred to.

Those are so funny that they did not think of them.

You'd think they'd have new holidays so far into the future.

They probably would, but the directors were not creative enough to just think of something like that.

Since the idea was "20th century suburban America in the future" (apparently the 21st or 22nd century at that), apparently not...

I do remember the episode playing on Cartoon Network a few times. I think it has something to do with Frankenstien and Elroy dressing as a magician and an evil magician coming to the Jetson's apartment. But that's all I can really remember.

That probably it.
