("Super Friends," they called them, instead of the Justice League. The difference tells you everything you need to know about the seventies.)

LOL!

Race should have killed that rotten little dog, though.

I could never understand something about that show. Johnny Quest's sidekick was named "Hadji" (meaning, a Muslim pilgrim), yet he was obviously a Sikh because of the turban he wore.

Johnny Quest!

Yeah man. I was a big JQ fan. It actually had pretty good plots, and kept little guys like me glued to the tube for the full 30 minutes. That is one cartoon where the writers seemed to actually care about the quality of the product.

Yea but Johnny Quest was not a Saturday morning cartoon the original whole first run was as a summer time replacement show in early or pre prime time (7PM) shows like the Flintstones where.

Johnny Quest was adult enough for the whole family to watch with the adult stuff going over the kids heads (remember Race & Jade…)

Oddly the best cartoons were always written for a mix ages audiences …The Bug Bunny and alike cartoons were originally for the movies mix ages audiences

Rocky and Bullwinkle while always for TV had tons of adult stuff in it going over the kids heads….

The best cartoon are not simple pabulum that someone thinks they need to feeds to the kitty for there own good.

There more a tasted of the adult world cut up in to little bites that a kid can digest more and more of at there own pace as they grow up till there ready to move on to the real world
