Team Quest, headed by internationally respected scientist Benton Quest, is Earth’s only hope. When the good doctor becomes Zin’s captive, the stakes – and the action quotient – grow higher. Enter Jonny Quest, Dr. Quest’s bright, excitable, imaginative and heroic young son, ex-special agent Race Bannon, Jonny’s child genius friends Hadji and Jessie (Race’s daughter), their robotic pal 4-DAC and bulldog Bandit to complete the job of vermin extermination before it’s too late.

Cast: Arnold Stang, Allen Jenkins, Maurice Gosfield (VOICES)

Release Date: September 17, 2024

A Review By: Kevin Lovell

Disc Rating: 7/10

Synopsis:

In the tradition of great screen con men – one of the few with a visible tail – Top Cat holds a top spot in the hearts of classic animation fans. The second of Hanna-Barbera’s prime-time network animated sitcoms, TOP CAT debuted on ABC television on Wednesday, September 27, 1961. The series only ran for one season at night, but continued to be popular through a mix of continued Saturday morning network reruns and syndication for more than two decades thereafter. Arnold Stang provided the voice of the smooth-talking New York City cat, known as T.C. to his gang of cohorts Benny the Ball, Choo-Choo, Spook, The Brain and Fancy Fancy. These cats were always on the make toward a big score or swindle. And the bothersome – and ever exasperated – Officer Dibble, (voiced by legendary character actor Allen Jenkins) is relentlessly on Top Cat’s case (although always one step behind). This 4-disc Blu-ray set contains all 30 original episodes, newly remastered in 1080p HD from 4K scans off the original camera negatives, with the series offering top-shelf entertainment for fans. More than 60 years after it debuted, Top Cat continues to be a comic delight of animated fun for audiences of all ages.
