Confusing lol ...

Found this online:
Arnold’s Drive-In was originally “Arthur’s Restaurant” at 1001 S. Victory Blvd., Burbank, CA, in the pilot and first (few?) episodes.

45. IIRC Al left it Arnold's when he bought it

I'm thinking here...at the start of the series Arnold's was owned by Pat Morita. He had a Japanese name in the series but assumed "Arnold" as a nickname after he found out what it would have cost to buy new signage. Then he sold it to Al Molinaro, who either figured there was no point in changing a good thing or found out what it would cost to patch the holes in the restaurant walls after changing "Arnold's" to "Al's."

(there were only 13 episodes made)

It starred Mark Valley as an American police detective a loaned to Scotland Yard, and the very beautiful Sienna Miller as his British roommate.

I loved it back in 2003 and I now own the 13 episodes, which I watch often.

If you get a chance to watch it, you should do so, imo.

Also, they did a lot of innovative stuff with the camera work and etc.
(Very creative production)

Plus, it's mostly a comedy, so it's fun to watch.

But yeah, "Spacely Space Sprockets" was the firm Jetson worked for. Why exactly you would need sprockets and cogs in space was never discussed.
