A NEW LOOK AT "JONNY QUEST"

As a nine-year old when this show first aired, I couldn't wait for the next weekly installment!



And here's a little something from Cartoon Network's Boomerang along similar lines...


I'm definitely getting the series on DVD for my nephew come Christmas-time!

  1. 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.

    More great memories!
