I had to bite on the Knight Rider Blu ray set. Sorely tempted by A-Team, but resisted. Airwolf - hell no.

George Jetson worked for Spacely Sprockets, their biggest competitor was Cogswell's Cogs. Recently it dawned on me, that Spacely Sprockets was just a USAID NGO money laundry operation. There aren't any sprockets in Jet propulsion, or quantum particle acceleration. But there are Cogs.
Our childhoods were a sham and we were rooting for the wrong entrepreneur on the Jetsons.

Watch an old "Astro Boy" cartoon that was made in the 1960s and set in the year 2000. It had flying cars, conscious robots, and living on the moon.

That's so old it's actually written in English as opposed to some language agnostic hieroglyphics.

The year is 1972. The RAND corporation proposes building a cross-country networks of maglev trains in vacuum sealed tunnels to carry passengers and freight at 14,000 mph kilometers beneath the surface of the Earth.
We used to dream.

I remember when we went camping, my mother has my dad hook up our 13" TV to the motorhome's generator to watch this or ELSE!

Hyperloop before there was hyperloop.
also, remember a movie called Genesis II (with Mariette Hartley and two belly buttons) about a future with underground MagLev Trains that still ran, but surfaced into a primitive survival dystopian hellscape.

That was the first of three pilots. Planet Earth was the second. Strange New World was the third. All were declined.
Then a fourth, more drastic remake was done..and became a syndicated series with Kevin Sorbo. That was Andromeda.

I asked AI. It would take a minimum of 414 miles at 3g to accelerate a person to 14,000 mph. And it would be very uncomfortable even if you weren't injured by that great weight of 3g of acceleration.
Then there's another 414 miles to slow down.

Airplanes work just fine. I can get to LA or Aruba in 4 hours from Chicago. I don't know, that's not bad. 2 hours to NYC or Denver. Could knock the time down to an hour coast to coast if people didn't care about the sound barrier noise. Reason why I'll probably never cross an ocean. I also don't care to.

The second season sucked except for the "Vorvon" episode - that was pretty twisted.
The first season had Erin Grey in sewn-in skin-tight gear. Some pretty good and some LOL corny episodes.

First season was best. Jamie Lee Curtis was in one episode.
Second season I liked Mark Lenard's two part episode. And I remember the satyr episode.

My wife found a smaller red version of this at one of the thrift places. I'll use that when I hang with by boomer buddies.

This is 1940's tech. A Willy's Jeep from WWII could be unpacked from a create and reassembled in around 4 minutes.
