Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In the opening sequence of Hanna-Barbera's 1962 cartoon "The Jetsons", what does George hand Elroy?

Answer: lunchbox and hat

The first known licensed character lunchbox was Mickey Mouse in 1935. The first licensed TV character was Hopalong Cassidy in 1950. In 2009, the top ten collectible lunch boxes included the Jetsons at number six for $1,650. (Source: Krause Pub.)
2. What is the name of Elroy's school?

Answer: Little Dipper School

One thing is certain about the Little Dipper School. Nobody there was praying for a safe landing at school. 1962 was a significant year in American education, marked by the Engel v. Vitale Supreme Court case. This finding banned public schools from offering prayer on the basis of the "Establishment Clause" of the U.S. Constitution which effectively prohibits the state from establishing a state religion. Many see 1962 as the beginning of the modern 'home schooling' movement.
3. What does Jane, his wife, do before jettisoning to the Shopping Center in the opening?

Answer: She takes George's wallet.

Penny Singleton, the voice of Jane, also played 'Blondie' in the 1940's. Singleton starred in 28 films from 1938 to 1950 as the wife of Dagwood Bumstead (played by Arthur Lake). The movies were based on the Chic Young cartoon strip "Blondie". Later, Singleton provided the voice of Jane Jetson in Hanna-Barbera's 1962-63 cartoon.
4. George, after dropping everyone at their destinations, reports to work at Spacely's Space Sprockets. Who is Spacely's principle competitor?

Answer: Cogswell's Cogs

All four possible answers are fictional enterprises. The Acme Corporation is featured in 'Looney Tunes' cartoons, especially in 'Roadrunner' episodes, when Wiley E. Coyote sends away for numerous fanciful contraptions in his never ending quest to capture the Roadrunner. Stark Industries is a Marvel Comics corporation which is owned by "Ironman". Globex is a fictional company featured in "The Simpsons".
5. What does George's space car transform to when he lands it at work?

Answer: briefcase

Interestingly, even though transforming into a briefcase is a feature of 21st century cars, there are car parks depicted everywhere. George Jetson's car was the de facto "Transformer" prototype. Transformers, from Hasbro toys, debuted in 1984 with the release of "Autobots" which transformed from robots to compact autos.
6. What are the respective hair colors of George, Jane, Judy and Elroy Jetson?

Answer: Red, Orange, White, Blonde

I remember from High School genetics talking about simple cases of probability of hair color based on Mendell's research... however "In general, dark hair is dominant over light. But as with eye color, your baby's hair can turn out to be a beautiful range of shades between your hair color and that of your partner. It depends on the colors, or pigments, you both have in your hair and how they mix. Parents with similar hair color may have a baby with a hue that's slightly different, but within their color range.

But surprise colors can certainly appear from parents with different hair colors. This usually occurs when a recessive color gene in one parent comes through and mixes with another one. So a black-haired parent carrying a recessive gene for blond hair could potentially have a blond child if that gene is expressed and mixes with a blond gene from the other parent." -Denise Porretto in "Baby Magazine"
7. When George Jetson gets home from work, he hands his briefcase to Rosie the Robot and sits in his recliner. What is the next thing to happen?

Answer: Elroy puts his slippers on him.

George's work is exhausting. He puts in two hours a day, three days a week at his office computer RUDI ("Referential Universal Differential Indexer"), where he has a single button to push. If he does well, he will be promoted to Vice President, but more often than not, he makes some kind of mistake that results in his termination - at least until the next episode.
8. "Help! Help, Jane! Stop this crazy thing!" This is the sign off following the end credits of every episode. What does George need Jane to stop?

Answer: treadmill

Walking is the kind of exercise that promotes greater fitness and improved health in workers like George Jetson who are stuck in sedentary desk jobs. Walking helps to lower cholesterol and blood pressure, and reduce the risk of diabetes. Unlike George's romp with Astro, walking generally brings about an improvement in mood. Rorry, Reorge!
9. Mel Blanc of Warner Brothers cartoon fame is the voice of Mr. Cosmo Spacely.

Answer: True

Mel Blanc was known as "the man with a thousand voices". His obituary, printed in the Los Angeles Times, July 11, 1989 read: "Among the many lines he repeatedly uttered that arguably rival those of Shakespeare in terms of familiarity, if not intellectual depth: "Eh . . . what's up, Doc?" through the lips of the wiseacre hare, Bugs Bunny; "I tawt I taw a putty tat," from the tart-tongued canary Tweety, and "SSSSSsssuffering SSSSSuccotash," courtesy of Sylvester the sloppy cat.

Not to mention Woody Woodpecker's signature laugh ("Hee, hee, heh, hah, ho.

Hee, hee, heh, hah, ho") and, of course, the stutter-strewn meanderings of Porky the wistful pig."
10. The actor who performed the voice of Elroy also provided which of the following voices?

Answer: All of them

At one point in 1962, Daws Butler was starring in three simultaneous half hour comedies, providing the voices for Yogi Bear, Quickdraw McGraw and Huckleberry Hound, along with a slew of minor characters on each show, netting him an estimated $150,000 to $200,000 per year (double what President John F. Kennedy was making for quelling the Cuban missile crisis!) The breakfast foods company Kelloggs was the sponsor of each of the shows. "Good morning, good morning, the best to you each morning - K-E-L-L-O-double G-S, Kelloggs, good for you!"
