Jonny Quest: The Complete First Season is the first DVD release of the complete original 1964 Jonny Quest television series. It was released by Warner Home Video as part of the Hanna-Barbera Golden Collection.
The original series was only one season long; the 1980s series was marketed as the "second season" of the show.
The complete original series was later re-released on DVD in 2017 as part of the Hanna-Barbera Diamond Collection, which did not include any bonus material.
Description[]
Official description from the back of the DVD case:
Your Jonny-on-the-Spot Passport to Awesome Animated Adventure!
TV's first animated action-adventure series is about to take you on a breathless ride. All 26 Year-One episodes charting the fantastic exploits of brave and brainy 11-year-old Jonathan Quest are yours in a Deluxe 4-Disc Set featuring Exciting New and Vintage Bonus Materials from the Hanna-Barbera vaults. Unlike the outrageous fantasy plots of cartoons that preceded it, Jonny Quest drew on science and detective-style logic to solve mysteries and apprehend sophisticated villains. Viewers were transported to exotic locales as Jonny's dad, Dr. Benton Quest, tackled each new government assignment, aided by ex-agent "Race" Bannon, the Indian boy Hadji, family bulldog Bandit ... and of course, his fearless son Jonny.

Notes/trivia[]
- The set reuses the same end credits (from episode Pursuit of the Po-Ho) for 25 of the 26 episodes, so most of the individual episodes do not have the proper end credits.[1][3]
- Some of the episodes were modified to remove content for modern audiences, such as ethnocentric insults.[1]
