Finally a DVD of its own.
Warner Brothers finally decided to break out this gem. Before this DVD set came out the ONLY offering on DVD was a dinky single episode DVD (Escape to Questworld was the episode) with no stereo track or extras of any kind. This two disk DVD set gives you 13 episodes and a bonus interview/retrospective with the show's producers. Oh yeah... full stereo audio and English subtitles (you really can't expect surround sound for a 90's cartoon).
The Real Adventures of Johnny Quest is a re-imaging of the classic 60's television. Don't expect the same kind of format that the old one had to be here. It's not really even in the same spirit as the classic series. For one in the old series it was mainly the adults (Dr. Benton Quest and Race) who did much of the problem solving and Johnny was mostly an active spectator. This time around Johnny and his friends are the ones solving the problems. The problems are also not quite the same, but then again we already have the classic series to...
Great cartoon! Please release the rest of the series.
This is a great update to the original Jonny Quest and everyone should own it. I can't wait for the rest of the series to be released!
Jonny Quest-The Best!
It has now been some years since the release of the original JQ. This was welcomed by fans as the BEST animated "sci-fi" series ever. The New Adventures are just as good as the originals (keep the evolution in technology out of the comparison and look at the quality of episode writing and content to compare).
A surprise is that the 13 episode Second season rarely (if ever) surfaces in any discussion of Jonny Quest! All S2 episodes are good (some GREAT) and worthy of release. Fans should join together to get these episodes released so we can enjoy the COMPLETE series.
Please add to Amazon reviews so we can let the studio's know demand exists for the 13 episode season 2!!!
