> “The Jetsons” stands as the single most important piece of 20th century futurism.

LOL. Perhaps it's important to Americans.

I'm not sure I've seen a single episode, I certainly didn't see it when it was broadcast.

Not even that. The author’s claim is just plain over-exaggeration even to American audiences—and such a blatant one that makes me wonder if it was included solely for engagement purposes.

I don’t know, was there a more important TV series that could be considered “futurist” ?
