This show did not age well. iPhones were the final nail in the coffin so many of the inventions don't look that impressive anymore except for the flying cars. It would be much better if they put a bigger emphasis on imagination, surrealism, and impossible inventions like Jimmy Neutron, Doraemon and Dexter's Laboratory do instead of oh look a Robot is doing my chores for me what fun. This show is very boring. The characters aren't all that interesting and have one trait. George is the lazy father and he is a little bit stupid, Jane is the house wife and she is the voice of reason she doesn't really do much( I know it was the 60's but even the straight man should have silly moments.) Judy is the Average sterotypical teenage girl. She is upbeat and very thirsty, Elroy is the smart one. There is the stupid dog and there is Rosie the sassy maid. I honestly don't get the point of Rosie if she is a round what does Jane do all day when the kids are at school. The show would be better if they populated the world with more secondary characters. The show could also use some more villians just Mr.Spacely all the time gets old every member of the family should have a nemisis. The show would also be better if there was more conflict between the family. I don't want them to be out right mean to each other but real families argue from time to time. The show would be more fun if the characters were a bit more mischievous yet had good intentions. Also the jokes are sometimes corny.
