* HeyItsThatVoice:
** Elroy in the movie grows up to become '''[[Franchise/MetalGear REVOLVER OCELOT]]'''! Seriously, that's Patric Zimmerman giving the voice.
** BradGarrett (in his film debut) voices one of the Jetsons' neighbors.
** If you're a ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'' fan, chances are you might recognize Cosmic Cosmo's voice as the same singer that Mike and the Bots mercilessly mocked during the end credits of ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S08E20SpaceMutiny Space Mutiny]]'' for the fact that the song he was singing was so blatantly [[TheEighties 80's]].

* ExecutiveMeddling: Janet Waldo had already recorded her lines as Judy Jetson only to get bounced from the movie in favor of late 1980s pop star Tiffany. Waldo has said she found out shortly after the decision was made, and it was highly publicized. She was pretty upset at first, but has admitted it's become a non-issue, and doesn't hold any ill-will against anybody, not even Tiffany. On the other hand, George O'Hanlon and Creator/MelBlanc were beyond pissed off about the StuntCasting, and demanded that Waldo be reinstated, to no avail. It didn't even work out for the studio. AnimationLeadTime meant that while Tiffany was huge when they cast her, her fifteen minutes of fame were pretty much over by the time the film actually came out, causing the film to be a box office bomb.

MelBlanc (Mr Spacely) and George O'Hanlon (George) died ''during'' production, so the few unrecorded lines they had left were done by Jeff Bergman. And most infamously, Tiffany replacing Janet Waldo (Judy) after the latter had already recorded all her lines for the film.

* FranchiseKiller: Coming on the heels of the 1980s ''Jetsons'' revival (the new syndicated episodes and two TV movies), this film's disappointing box office and harsh critical reviews were apparently enough to send the franchise back into hibernation.
