The show first aired in prime time in 1964. I was seven years old and it was my favorite show. I watched it when it originally aired and then through syndication. That cartoon rocked. I remember thinking "this is a grown-up cartoon". The opening credits with that theme song was awesome. Jonny Quest, his friend Hadji, his father Dr. Quest, and we can't forget the coolest Roger "Race" Bannon who always got the chick. The original show is out on DVD. I think they did a second try at the series maybe in the late 70s or 80s but it wasn't as cool as the first. They toned it down as I remember, probably to make it more 'family friendly', and like a lot of things when people try to redo something they missed the point and spirit of the original.
