Cross Mad Men with The Jetsons, remove the former’s depth and the latter’s world-building, and you end up with Amit Bhalla and Lucas Jansen’s new Apple TV+ series, Hello Tomorrow!
The 10-episode series is a gorgeous atomic-age confection set in a “retrofuturistic” version of the early 1960s – a Mayberry with jetpacks and hovering cars.
Robots contoured like old Frigidaires walk the dogs and work the bars while Billy Crudup’s Jack Billings, a travelling salesman, spends his days talking the residents of this automated America into buying property on the moon.
