Wow... This was unbelievably bad... Why did one of them just randomly decided to bring a duck along on their expedition?

[LadyDeirdre]

@GhostyFilms Gertrude is Lars' pet, a semi-domesticated eiderduck.

I remember watching these classic Filmation cartoons back in their populaity in the '70s. "Fantastic Voyage", "The Brady Kids", "The New Adventures of Gilligan", "Superman", "Batman & Robin", Aquaman", "Tarzan", "The Lone Ranger", "Zorro","Fat Albert & The Cosby Kids", "Star Trek", and "Shazam" were regularly watched by me or my brother growing up .

[heartofzorro]

The filmation cartoons were greatest :))

Ted Knight played Henry Rush on "Too Close for Comfort" before he died in 1986.

I loved this series as a kid back in 1967 and it hasn't lost its appeal with age. This was quality entertainment. Too bad there's nothing like it on Saturday mornings now.

Thanks a lot for posting this! Very fond memories of carving A.S. in the wall of my house as a kid.

The Icelandic character is a brutally stereotypical Scandinavian.

I love Filmation but I have never seen this before.Thanks for posting!

I remember watching this show when I was a kid. Thanx for finding it

[TammiWayKewl]

Lava surfing! Who'd have thought?

[InfiniteMushroom]

Cartoons like this were for the Gemini generation, where it was important to cultivate scientific fantasy and see realistic humans animated in character

Today's kids have only mindless serfdom to look forward to. Such cartoons with characters that look like humans doing interesting things just doesn't play out well in a stupefied mind. It would only create cognitive dissonance for today's kids to see quality entertainment and then look up and see a destitute anomic police-state all around them.

Yeah.....the dumbing down of todays youth

[ralongx]

One of the best animated series produced by Filmation (pre-He-Man) You wonder why they don't put these out on DVD. Thanks for your post.

[Titan752]

In my country I was champion this... champion that.... Jules Verne never imagined all these scenarios.....

[theematt31]

[Dachshund]

Yes, that was THE Ted Knight of future Ted Baxter ("The Mary Tyler Moore Show") fame.

[mom369222]

I loved this show when I was a kid! I used to look forward to seeing it, every saturday Morning

[lewisner]

This cartoon and Scooby Doo rocked.

[mariscao]

very good man, can you get more episodes?

[Scarletspeedster68]

Oh, correction! Pat Harrington (who played the character of Schneider on One Day At A Time) was the voice of Lars as well as Alec and Torg.

[alfredunhill]

Ted Knight was one of the voices..is this the same Ted from the Mary Tyler Moore show??? I wonder if he did the voice of Lars??

[TammiWayKewl]

Lars, Alec, and Torg were voiced by Pat Harrington, Jr., who went on to play Schneider on "One Day At A Time."

[tellusorbit]

@TammiWayKewl

And Ted Knight voiced Professor Lindenbrook and Count Saknussemm. He went on to play Ted Baxter on "The Mary Tyler Moore Show".

[Scarletspeedster68]

Where did you find this clip? I never saw this series before (which aired on ABC from 1967-1969) , but thanks for sharing this!

[hexseeker]

These cartoons were togehter with Tarzan aired in Ex-Yugoslavia in late 1980s and they were recorded from VHS. Now converted to avi and DVD formats. Also some episodes were from friends from USA (thanks lobo).

[ramza1963]
