This supercut of Judy Jetson freaking out over boys is too much for me to handle. It goes on FOREVER. All that chick did was freak out over boys. I made it through about a minute and a half, and I couldn’t believe that I was less than a THIRD of the way through it. What a whore.

As a lengthy and disturbing side note, I was looking to sexy this post up a little bit, so I did a Google image search for “judy jetson cosplay.” Seemed harmless enough — except my SafeSearch filter was off. And that, friends, is a terrifying but magnetic rabbit hole to go down. I have seen things, people. Things that shouldn’t happen in cartoons. I saw Judy getting double-teamed by Star Trek characters. Jane and Judy getting railed by that furry house helper thing. With a couple clicks I saw R2D2 doing Princess Leia. Tron porn? Yup. And then there’s the Disney stuff. YIKES. You can’t un-see King Triton from Disney’s The Little Mermaid fingering his butthole while ejaculating. That sh*t is DARK, man. It was like a horrible hentai car wreck that I couldn’t look away from.

So please, enjoy this tame little Judy Jetson cosplay picture — but know that it came with a price.

Smurfin’ Smurfs. Like most Americans raised on TV, I learned about the Smurfs not from the 1950s comic strip in which they first appeared, but from the Hanna-Barbera series that ran from 1981-1989 on NBC. Who could forget when Greedy Smurf got greedy or when Brainy Smurf said something smart? Not I, says everyone. But as much as the new Neil Patrick Harris-starring Smurfs movie would like you to remember otherwise: the Smurfs kind of suck, and the TV show really sucks. But! It’s not the worst series to come from Hanna-Barbera — which, to its credit, did create some great series like “The Flintstones,” “Space Ghost,” and “Johnny Bravo.” But this is the Internet, so let’s talk about the ones that sucked hardest.

Here they smurfin’ are.

I watched “The Jetsons” as a kid, but I never actually liked it. In fact, I was always bothered with the credits: George offers Jane a bill to go shopping, and she instead takes his entire wallet. I must’ve been six or seven and already thinking, “God, what a bitch.” It’s bad enough to reinforce the patriarchal stereotype that a woman needs her breadwinner’s money to spend the day shopping; it’s even worse when she revels in taking his money instead of working for it.

Uhhh… or at least that’s what I would say if I had taken a women’s studies course in college.

Anyway, this College Humor video takes this in a nice schadenfreude-y direction: George has an ex-wife, a robot mistress, bastard children, alimony, and it all culminates in drug abuse and a ruined life. Now that would have been a more accurate depiction of the future.
