The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest is an American animated television series produced by Hanna-Barbera Cartoons and broadcast on Cartoon Network from August 26, 1996, to April 16, 1997. A continuation of Jonny Quest and The New Adventures of Jonny Quest, it features teenage adventurers Jonny Quest, Hadji Singh, and Jessie Bannon as they investigate strange phenomena, legends, and mysteries in exotic locales. Action also takes place in the virtual realm of QuestWorld, a three- dimensional cyberspace domain rendered with computer animation. Hanna- Barbera dismissed creator Peter Lawrence in 1996. John Eng and Cosmo Anzilotti completed Lawrence's work; David Lipman, Davis Doi, and Larry Houston wrote new episodes with reworked character designs akin to those of classic Quest. Turner supported the show through a massive marketing campaign with 33 licensees. Real Adventures debuted with a wide release on Cartoon Network, TBS, and TNT, airing 21 times per week. The series failed to gain high ratings with its target demographics, leading to its cancellation. (Full article...).
