Rockin' with Judy Jetson is a 1988 TV movie, released as a part of the "Hanna-Barbera Superstars 10" series. This is the sole film centered entirely on the The Jetsons cast.

In the film, Judy Jetson and her pals prepare for an upcoming concert by rock star Sky Rocker. Judy has written a song she hopes he'll play, but it is accidentally swapped with a secret code needed for the nefarious plot of the music-hating Felonia Funk (Ruth Buzzi). Judy, her friends, and family must stop her before she destroys all music in the universe, as well as perishes a planet of aliens known as Zoomies.


This movie includes examples of:

  • Berserk Button: The mere mention of the word "music" sends Felonia into hysterics.
  • Call-Back: The opening song (reprised elsewhere in the film) was originally heard in The Jetsons Meet the Flintstones.
  • A Day in the Limelight: This movie gives Judy a greater focus and also turns her into a Plucky Girl.
  • Never Trust a Trailer: A VHS ad consisted of clips from the Jetsons episode "A Date With Jet Screamer" rather than from this movie.
  • Running Gag: Felonia being snapped out of her hysterical, anti-music fit with a buck of water. Gets to the point where she douses herself.
  • Out of Focus: The rest of the cast plays much smaller supporting roles in the film, especially Jane and Rosie.
