It is a sham that it lastd so little, at least it got a sequel in the '90s

>>149297710 (OP)
Generally Hanna-Barbera is underrated when it comes to its action offerings in the 60s. Hell they even had a sort of connected universe of sorts in animation form before it was something people remotely understood.

>sequel in the '90s
Talk about a mismanaged sequel, it feels that its failure is what led HB to drop actions cartoons.

>>149297710 (OP)
This and Mighty Max were the best for adventure action cartoons.

>>149297710 (OP)
So what exactly did Dr. Quest "do"? The man was clearly loaded out the ass, he had a jet and a boat and a mansion and everything. And he kept getting invited places and honored like he was this globally important figure. What was he? Just some major super-scientist? It kind of makes sense that Venture Bros. pokes fun at the very idea of it so much, the whole thing's a bit absurd.

Based

>Best known now for being parodied by Venture Bros

>>149298316
There's also an 80s series and some movies (its lame though)

>>149298379
Yupp space ghost briefly crossing over with a few other HB action toons is pretty kewl

>>149298570
He makes lasers and shit and is smart
He's very knowledgeable about indigenous tribes, there's this one episode where he and this other guy are the only civilized people who know how to speak with these pygmies, and the other guy gets captured

>>149298570
Probably had government contracts. Race was a government agent.

>>149297710 (OP)
Cool

>>149297710 (OP)
The best.

>>149297710 (OP)
How is it still one of the best action cartoons

>>149297710 (OP)
What else Am I expected from this show?

>>149297710 (OP)
Jessie thread?

>>149298899
How dough?

>>149298570
He was the "go to" science/engineering guy for cold war 60's US Government. Race was his bodyguard to prevent him or his kid being captured. In the old Comico comic series it was his dead wife who was rich.

They had a marathon of it on boomerang yesterday, never saw it before but I really enjoyed how pulp the show was, art style was great too and the animation wasn’t that bad either for the 60’s. Hadji is such a weird character though, like I get he’s like Benton’s adopted son but why is still dressed like an Indian? Did he want that or do they just keep buying him turbans? In the Red Baron episode he prays to God with Jonny before bed

>>149297710 (OP)
Is it?

>>149306119
Yes.

>>149300313
And Harvey Birdman.

>>149307145
Cool.

>60 years later
>people still can't spell 'Jonny Quest' right

>>149305218
He only recently joined them, there's an episode that shows how. He was an orphan partly raised by a street peddler who's angle is that he talks like a 60's hepcat despite being an Indian street merchant. Hadji adopts some American culture but still prefers to dress the way he did in India because he's just used to it.

>>149308126
Exactly.

>>149304164
why are your words not blurred?

>>149297710 (OP)
So, where could I watch this, though?

Lizardman, Lizardman, and uh Lizardman.

I think it's still on Tubi too.

>>149298316
>lasted so little

>>149301735
Because it was originally made for prime time viewing, not Saturday morning. Because of that, it had fewer content restrictions. If you've seen the originals rather than the edited versions that ran on Saturday morning, you can see the difference.

>>149311272
How successful is Tubi?

>>149302609
It's more like animated pulp adventures with pair of kids and their adult guardian and super science dad.

>>149298379
>sequel
What was wrong with it?
I remember liking it a lot watching it decades ago.

>>149314584
It's not a bad show, but the weird thing is that it's basically two different JQ relaunches mashed together. "Season 1" was based off a reboot where as "Season 2" was more a continuation. Different voice casts and designs, too. What happened was the crew for the first show fell behind and production was a disaster, and the crew for the second was brought on to finish up the first season while working on their own show.
In truth there's not actually two different seasons, the last of 1 and beginning of 2 aired intertwined so some 2's have earlier premier dates than 1. Ultimately it works well enough that, besides the voice/design changes, there's not any real contradictions and Season 2 uses the Season 1 villains at times, along with using the Questworld stuff.

>>149297710 (OP)
meh

>>149300135
Yep

>90s jonny quest
>hadji is the techie
did real adventures predict the pajeet meme?

>>149314663
Johhny Quest was just a relic of the past, remember the short lived 80s season?

>>149297710 (OP)
Sure it is.

>>149314663
Yeah the quest world stuff doesn’t age well but I feel like Ezekiel Rage was a great add to the canon and the kids are aged up just enough to get some angst without going too far off the kid adventurer motif.

Jennifer Hale Jessie was also was doing it for me at a formative time.

>>149297710 (OP)
CN barely even acknowledges the show whenever they do some "remember the classic Cartoon Network shows" stuff and fucking Real Adventures might as well not even exist.
