Charles Barkley derails TNT halftime report with 'Leroy Jetson' reference (Video)

TNT NBA analyst Charles Barkley completely derailed the TNT halftime report in the middle of Thursday night's Spurs-Warriors game with a mistaken reference to "Leroy Jetson".

Barkley was trying to make a spaceship reference when he thought of the classic cartoon series "The Jetsons". Unfortunately, he made the mistake of blurting the name "Leroy" instead of Elroy, the son's name in the show. Despite immediately correcting himself, the mistaken reference sent the show off the rails, and complete hilarity ensued.

Shaq, Ernie Johnson and Kenny Smith began to expand on the idea of what that alternative version of the Jetsons would be like, complete with a new jingle and an artist rendition of Elroy Jetson.
