The Jetsons Coming to the MeTV Network; Lana Condor to Star in Netflix Comedy Series
Meet George Jetson! His boy, Elroy! You know the rest! That's right, Jane, Judy, Rosey and Astro fly into the MeTV lineup on Sunday, February 21. Head into the clouds Sunday mornings at 11:30AM | 10:30C right after The Flintstones block from 10-11:30am. The MeTV Network is proud to welcome Hanna-Barbara's futuristic family to their roster of animated gems. The Jetsons join The Flintstones, their Stone Age counterparts, on the Sunday schedule. The Jetsons originally ran in primetime for one season from 1962–63. Those 24 episodes were enough to turn the Jetsons into American icons. We stick with the Sixties classics, which introduced Jet Screamer (Howard Morris) singing "Eep, Opp, Ork, Ah-ah," not to mention Astro and Mr. Spacely. Love cartoons? Watch them seven days a week on MeTV, with Toon In With Me on weekday mornings and Saturday Morning Cartoons starting at 7AM | 6C!
Lana Condor will star in and executive produce Boo, Bitch — a live-action Netflix comedy limited series about a high school senior who, after years of playing it safe, decides to live an epic life ... only to wake up the next morning and find out she's now a ghost. More info to come. Lana has been a Netflix staple for their movies. She has starred in To All the Boys I've Loved Before and the sequel To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You in 2020 and will star in the upcoming third entry in the series, To All the Boys: Always and Forever, Lara Jean. The third film will drop on Feb. 12. Lana has also the Syfy series Deadly Class and will also appear in the upcoming HBO Max film Moonshot. Is it me or does Boo, Bitch sound sort of like the 2008 Eva Longoria movie Over Her Dead Body?
