We Love Johhny Quest: A Brief History Of The Cartoon That Took The World Of Kids And Parents By Surprise 1960's-80's

Everyone knows the great Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters: Scooby Doo, The Flintstones, and Yogi Bear, just to name a few. But there's one Hanna-Barbera character that '90s kids especially love: Johnny Quest.

Johnny Quest was an animated cartoon that aired in the late '60s and early '70s. The cartoon followed the adventures of young Johnny Quest, who was always accompanied by his faithful dog, Bandit. Johnny Quest was an instant hit with kids, and quickly became a Saturday morning staple. In 1986, a new version of Johnny Quest was released, and again, kids loved it. Johnny Quest is still beloved by '90s kids and continues to be a pop culture icon.

Johnny Quest first aired in Hanna-Barbera's " Hanna-Barbera Super Network" on September 18, 1964. The show was an immediate success. The first season of the show ran for 26 episodes.

This is Doug Widely: Creator of the infamous Johnny Quest.
Some of the animated cartoons were so phenomenal that many adults became fans with their children. There is so much history here to read about that I'm suggesting you use my Wiki Bar at the top of my blog and search Johnny Quest.

I have a Jonny Quest action medley below, because you have to buy or stream the series of Johnny Quest! (Yes, it's that protected). BJ🙈🙉🙊......

We All Know Someone That Brags...But Not Like "Commander Mc Bragg" !!!! 1963

Commander McBragg is an animated cartoon series that aired in the 1960s. It features an old timer like character, Commander McBragg, a military officer who tells tall tales of his adventures and exploits. The show was produced by Total Television Productions and was shown in syndication. Each episode consisted of Commander McBragg telling a story, usually involving some sort of adventure or battle, with a moral lesson at the end. The show was aimed at a younger audience and was known for its humorous and educational content.

Commander McBragg was based after Sir C. Aubrey Smith, older English actor from the 1930s and 1940s, always to be seen in pubs and social gatherings

sipping on brandy by the fire and telling tales about himself in battle.

You know I really did like these short segment cartoons; they only use to last about 2 minutes but were great! He had colleagues, but I never heard him call them by name ("to stuck on himself") I guess. (LoL)

"Dudley-do-right" Was A Sunday Morning Cartoon Favorite of Mine 1960's

Dudley Do-Right is a Canadian cartoon character created by Jay Ward and Bill Scott. He was first introduced as a segment on The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show, an animated television series that aired on ABC and later NBC 1960.

The Dudley Do-Right character is a dim-witted but well-intentioned Mountie who always tries to do the right thing, but is constantly thwarted by the villainous Snidely Whiplash. Despite his bumbling efforts, Dudley always manages to save the day and win the heart of his sweetheart, Nell Fenwick. The Dudley Do-Right segments were known for their absurd humor and tongue-in-cheek mockery of traditional heroic figures.

Voice Over Artists

Bill Scott: Dudley Do-Right June Foray: Nell Fenwick
