    For me it's the Jetsons.

    Anyone remember them?

    Very on the ball too about what the future would be like a bit like Star Trek in ways.
    It would be so cool if it got both a film and a live action T V series.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    I remember a cartoon from years ago called Legend of the Dragon. It was a kind've martial arts/Kung fu type of cartoon but had a supernatural element to it as well. I could kind've see it as a live action martial arts movie. Someone like Donnie Yen or Jet Li could play a role in a film like that.

    Here's the synopsis of how it starts.
    The show starts when the previous Golden Dragon has passed on to the afterlife and Ang and Ling Leung, seventeen-year-old fraternal twins, born in the year of the Dragon, are next in line for the Golden Dragon power band and user of its mystical abilities to defend the mortal world from evil. Ang has no belief that he will become the Golden Dragon, as Ling is the best fighter at the Dragon dojo. Ling is positive that she will become the Golden Dragon. However, when Master Chin calls upon the power of the Golden Dragon to choose who will be the next golden Dragon, it chooses Ang. Humiliated and furious, Ling storms out of the temple and is tempted by the ultimate dark and evil power of the shadow Dragon. From then on, Ang is forced to fight his own twin sister.

    Always thought Batman Beyond would have great potential, a twist on the current superhero genre. Could even bring Michael Keaton in.

    Dastardly and Muttley / Wacky Races

    I think what you're looking for is The Great Race

    Actually predates the series so probably inspired it.

    Harry Maguire maybe :P

    I dunno, I prefer cartoons to stay as cartoons tbh. But if you really wanted to twist my arm I'd be going with Thundercats, definitely has scope as a TV show for young adults.

    And me, of course. :D

    Another 1965 film. With Terry Thomas in fine form as a despicable cad.

    Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines; Or, How I Flew from London to Paris in 25 Hours 11 Minutes. By a stretch of the imagination it's Dastardly and Muttley except they aren't trying to stop the pigeon.

    It was followed up with Monte Carlo or Bust! (1969) which has it's moments.
