Aftermath
When The Jetsons originally aired, no title cards were present. They were only added when the series was revived in the 1980s, and the original episodes were given title cards for consistency. Notably, they all include Orbitty, who wasn't in the original series.
Behind the scenes
- Rosie was at first spelled "Rosey" for this episode and "Rosey's Boyfriend", until it was changed for subsequent episodes such as "Rosie Come Home" and Jetsons: The Movie.
- "Rosey's Boyfriend" is the only other appearance of Rosie in season one.
- Judy is fifteen in this episode.
- Jane is thirty-three in this episode.
- Elroy is six and a half in this episode.
- Janet Waldo, voice of Judy, provides audio commentary for this episode on The Jetsons: The Complete First Season DVD, which was later included on The Jetsons: The Complete Original Series Blu-ray.
Errors
- When Jane says to Judy she couldn't go swimming after school, the former has long purple sleeves.
