Astro and the Space Mutts

Astro and the Space Mutts is a Hanna - Barbera cartoon.

Background
Astro and his friends and leader Space Ace would have numerous adventures in space.

Production
Astro and the Space Mutts is spun off of The Jetsons and is the only spin off. Astro would return to Skypad Apartments for new episodes of The Jetsons in 1985. The Jetsons universe expanded by including character appearances such as Rosie, Laser Jack, Skata - Hara, Orbitty, RUDI, and UNIBLAB.

Astro and the Space Mutts is a segment of Space Stars which was not shown on Cartoon Network. Instead, they took segments from numerous cartoons and grouped them together under new titles such as Super Adventures.

Additionally, when aired as Space Stars, the announcer often referred to it as "Space Ace, Astro, and the Space Mutts", "Astro, Space Ace, and The Space Mutts", and even "Space Ace and the Space Mutts". A completely unrelated Space Ace character from Saturday Supercade was produced which Super Adventures picked up also. Since Cartoon Network omitted the original credits, it caused confusion between the two cartoons.
