Title: First-Rate!
Review: 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??).
