Summary: Jonny Quest - The Complete First Season
Comment: I always watched this show as a kid. Now I still can. I didn't realize it but there was only one season. You can have every Jonny Quest adventure you watched as a kid growing up in the sixties on this DVD. I give it 5 stars. If you liked as a kid, you'll love it now.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great Nostalgic Gift
Comment: I bought this as a gift to my sister. She enjoyed the cartoon as a child and I thought it would make a great Christmas gift.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A Classic!
Comment: This made both my husband and my 4 yr old daughter smile with delight. It has been a real bonding experience for them! My husband said it is a good as he remembered as a kid.
Customer Rating:
Summary: First-Rate!
Comment: Fantastic!
To me (and countless others, no doubt), this figures as one of THE premier cartoons to emerge from that 'golden age' of Saturday morning entertainment, even in the heady company of the other Hanna-Barbara standards.
I can't think of another 'toon that was so breathlessly anticipated each week in the 60's (oh, to have had video recording capability back then), and the excitement carries through to the present day. This well-crafted & superbly illustrated series set a benchmark for quality cartoons with intelligent dialogue, perfect pacing and a right-on musical soundtrack that surely has embedded itself into every young adventurers' memory banks!
Some notable episodes include 'The Robot Spy', 'The Quetong Missile Mystery' and 'Shadow of the Condor', among others. One or two small edits/omissions in the DVD set, but seemingly nothing too dreadful....;)
As I close out my 40's, I STILL want to be Jonny Quest (would you believe, Race Bannon??).
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very Pleased
Comment: This was exactly what I wanted. It came to my house very fast. Great price!

Editorial Reviews:

Unlike the outrageous fantasy plots of cartoons that preceded it, "Jonny Quest" drew on science and detective-style logic to solve mysteries and apprehend sophisticated villains. Viewers were transported to exotic locales as Jonny's dad Dr. Benton Quest tackled each new government assignment, aided by ex-agent "Race" Bannon, the Indian boy Hadji, family bulldog Bandit...and of course, his fearless 11-year-old son Jonny (voiced by actor Tim Matheson). Now all 26 classic episodes from Year One charting the fantastic exploits of brave and brainy Jonathan Quest are available for the first time ever, digitally re-mastered on DVD in a deluxe four-disc collectors set, featuring over 11 hours of classic original TV programming and newly-added enhanced content.
