Numerous successful scripted television shows made their way (https://animesuperhero.com/forums/threads/jeannie-1973-and-partridge-family-2200-a-d-1974-question.5355161/) to Saturday mornings in the mid-70s, like I Dream of Jeannie, Gilligan's Island, and Star Trek. The Partridge Family (https://web.archive.org/web/20061031125348/http://www.jumptheshark.com/p/partridgefamily.htm) got the same treatment (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partridge_Family_2200_A.D.) in 1974 (https://tuneintonight.wordpress.com/2017/03/29/partridge-family-2200-a-d-1974/), but with a catch--it's set (https://sciencefiction.com/2020/01/25/super-saturday-the-partridge-family-2200-ad-1974/) over 200 years (https://www.tvobscurities.com/2008/11/the-partridge-family-2200-ad-opening-credits/) in the future (https://www.genaradcliffe.com/home/2019/4/21/tune-in-tonight-partridge-family-2200-ad). Also, some key components in the Partridge Family (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Series/ThePartridgeFamily) universe were missing. If you see the show image (https://www.reddit.com/r/ForgottenTV/comments/1fwu0jr/partridge_family_2200_ad_19741975/), it looks awfully similar (https://www.saturdaymorningsforever.com/2016/08/partridge-family-2200-ad.html) to a venerable Hanna-Barbera series (https://www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/showthread.php?t=272787), and for good reason.

💎 As usual, I’ll share a few of my collectibles, from rare VHS tapes to promotional gems, and we’ll take a look at cartoon clips that will make you smile… and shake your head! 🤔
