Without a doubt, this is the DEFINITIVE story of Jonny Quest. Extremely well-done, meticulously researched and overall enjoyable. This should have been on the JQ DVD set instead of the brief featurette they showed. If this ever becomes available......
The font they used is the original Jonny Quest font created for the series logo back in 1963. Sadly, you are looking at a small and very poorly compressed YouTube file where the smaller sizes of the font break up ( like the rest of the image) and are hard to read.
I have to agree that H-B pretty much killed off the cartoon for quite some time. The stuff that was on t.v. from the early 70s to latter 80s was wretched.
True. One of the reasons was that, while in the 60s, cartoons were FUNNY, Hollywood succumbed to pressure and hired a bunch of child shrinks to script the shows. We ended up with transparent and ridiculous moral lessons and social hygiene propaganda masquerading as entertainment. The 70s and 80s were shit for TV, but good for films.
Man, they deleted part 23. . . :(

The font selection for this great documentary's texts is quite unfortunate. I wish they had used a bold grotesk.

I see, makes sence but still a bad choice. A good screen font can be read in that size.
