Jonny Quest was awesome! Don't recall how old I was when I first saw it. I looked at the Saturday morning tv schedule grids on Wiki (I love those grids and the prime time ones, too---such great memories!) but that wasn't helpful, as JQ was either on-network when I was 5 and not a regular Saturday morning viewer, or when I was 13 and it was opposite both Jason of Star Command in the first half of the season or Shazam! in the second half, both of which I watched sporadically. I remember the closing credits best of all, but I do recall Zin's giant robot spider, and a bad guy who was on a ship that was going to explode, crying out, apparently for help, in a foreign tongue (something like bev-ah-qua, bev-ah-qua!), and I recall one of the later adventures involving Dr. Zin and an asteroid.
As the Trickster once said, "Reality is boring, that's why I change it whenever I can."
I'm just "The Man Who Viewed Too Much", and "Inner Toob" is a blog exploring and celebrating the 'reality' of an alternate universe in which everything that ever happened on TV actually takes place.
Most of my theories about the TV Universe come from thinking inside the box and thus can't be proven. But I've never been one to shy away from a tall tale.....
Remember: "The more you watch, the more you've seen!"
