A 60's Cartoon.... WITH BALLS!

[@maureencora1]

Don't Forget the 1967 "Herculiods"

[@michaelsimpson208]

The best thing about the series is EVERY VILLAIN GETS KILLED OFF!

[@Doctor4101]

Michael Simpson except for Dr. Zin.

[@LowellLucasJr.]

@@Doctor4101 yep he was too smart to be killed off.

[@michaeldreibelbis9529]

Dr. Sin was the ultimate villain... and, in true to pulp style... would always find a way to come back...

[@LowellLucasJr.]

Like to add Heidji was one of the few if not earliest minorities depicted in animation as a main character. Also, Doug was against making Dr. Zin a stereotypical ' evil asian' character and was the only recurring character in the original series.

[@maureencora1]

1964 Jonny Quest is the Best.

[@KendrickHarrisKenfinity]

It's awesome to venture into the unique facts and behind the scenes history of our globetrotting famy team. Keep it up and stay safe!

[@PairOfKoopas]

They also made a Parody in Fairly OddParents "Channel Chasers"

[@michaeldreibelbis9529]

Think I saw “The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest” twice. Horrible. Couldn’t hold a candle to the original...

[@theresecallahan8548]

You forgot to mention that the clip seen during the closing credits was part of the Jack Armstrong pilot film. Also, that Jade was one of the very few female characters seen in the first iteration, and that "Mystery Of The Lizard Men" is the only episode from which Hadji was absent.

[@jackbusby9602]

Very good. And speaking of Jade, it blew my mind one day when I was watching episode 4, "Pursuit of the Poho", and when sweet Drena Hartman said something like, "He's outback trying to wash off those berry stains." and I thought I recognized the voice of the sultry Jade. Drena and Jade were voiced by the same person. (I've never really researched that. Are my ears right?)

[@aquarianage3953]

Great trivia for one of my childhood favorites! THANKS FOR SHARING!

[@macktruk13]

You didn't say anything about the characters or the milieu but just gave us a chronology. Kinda disappointing. Not even a mention of Tim Matheson. This one is kind of a toss off. Nice discussion of Wildey and Bickenbach (sp.?)

[@Loremastrful]

Its worth noting the made for TV movie where we actually meet Jonny's mother before the parents' curse catches up with the Quest family. And Jade, Race Bannon's on-again, off-again partner/rival/love interest.

[@LowellLucasJr.]

Only thing I hated about that was Jade looked Asian in the 1964 show while she was a redhead in that movie. Dang it HB you had 1 job to do!

[@charlesintune]

Jade, as in secret agent Jezebel Jade working for Dr. Zin from the amazing comic FUTURE QUEST (2015)?

[@fad23]

I am a big fan of the Comico series. btw, pronounced Coh-meek-oh.

[@thomasthomas2418]

Boy! They really "fleshed out" Jade for that comic cover! Look where Jonny's eyes are focused....

[@donholt2025]

you have a dirty mind! I know it looks like he's staring at her, but if you look close you can tell he's looking at something past her.

[@D_Vice88]

now you have to do venture brothers

[@bbordelon2]

Would of been incredible if a real live action movie/series of a 12 year old Jonny could of been completed to fruition. CGI could be used only with the monsters and machines, not the humans. Seems like it would of been a winner to me.

[@borbetomagus]

I would have thought some mention of Tim Matheson would have been included -- /watch?v=KUscxcCNCzQ

[@sharnetteclarke1991]

Jonny

[@jalenikezeue4114]

I am going to be Honest I didn’t know anything about Johnny’s quest up in Tie this point the only reason I was So Familiar with The Show is because of the 1996 version

[@maureencora1]

1964 J.Q. was Hanna-Barbera Greatest Series. and the 1990s J.Q. Episode "Under Sea Urgency" was Like the 1964 version.

[@josiaharaki7310]

Doesn't Venture Bros straight up Call "Action Johnny" Mr. Quest several times and credit him as "Johnny Quest" as well? According to the wiki, Action Johnny was originally a thinly veiled spoof of Johnny Quest, but the writers found out Cartoon Network actually owned the rights to the show and started overtly making Action Johnny a grown up Johnny Quest, but got told to cut back on it due to fears they'd tarnish the brand before an apparent Reboot

[@jackbusby9602]

In my humble opinion, if it "ain't" from the original 26 episodes, it "ain't" Jonny Quest.

[@danielnepal19]

I watched it in the 90s and they had created a matrix type world called the quest world, shit was badass

[@judsongaiden9878]

It's pronounced "WILL-dee."

[@Warhawk24]

First

[@gregorblack5557]

Future Quest rooocks

[@charlesintune]

It was amazing I keep rereading it

[@thatguygeorge1005]

Am I the only one here who's 18 years old and likes the original more than the others?

[@kennethjohnson9370]

No I am 65 and I knew it was going to be a great cartoons I saw it premiere in 1964 a classic for ever

[@Darkelfable1]

GO TEAM VENTURE!

[@tolfan4438]

Wow there's a video on KZbin they have a drug out to Uber 2 hours and it doesn't cover any more information than what you got plugged into 4 minutes great video you got here

[@DCMarvelMultiverse]

Eh, I prefer Toby Danger. LOL.

[@Cinci-silverback-513]

Why did he need round the clock security

[@fiore4379]

0:10 "aDvEnTuRe" boi

[@dianaAthemiscyra]

What happened to Johnny's mother?

[@deacondavis5098]

dianaAthemiscyra His Mother was killed.

[@ericlopez9107]

Dr. Benton and Race Bannon were lovers, but they could not disclose that in the 60's!!!

[@Nightman221k]

Jonny and Hadji having two dads is pretty much their normal situation. Race is the caregiver and fun parent and Benton was the money-making breadwinner.
