Originally aired from 1964 to 1965, two seasons 26 episodes. Only 26!? There were some more episodes made for syndication in the mid 80's, not as good IMO. There were two made for TV animated films. And the series was revived in 1996-1997 with a 52 episode run called "The real Adventures of Jonny Quest". Inspired by the radio and comics series, who hasn't enjoyed this classic show that had such an effect on pop culture?

The original show was created and designed by Doug Wildey Though you'll be hard pressed to find that in the credits of the show, Hanna Barbera were kind of shits about that sort of thing, giving credit where it's due. If you like Birdman and the galaxy Trio, The Herculoids or Space Ghost then you'll enjoy this too. If it looks a bit violent that's because it was. They were always running afoul of censors on this show.

Pretty weird that the show had very good ratings but was cancelled anyway. Due to budget concerns mostly. Although later it also became a big money maker in syndication. Bad call cancelling that.

This should be an easy one. What's the name of the child actor that plays Agent Zero M in the final commercial?
