The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest [Animated Series]
The old Hanna Barbera cartoon adventure series Jonny Quest was given a new coat of paint -- and infinitely better animation -- in this daily, half-hour cable-TV offering, co-produced by Japan's Pacific Animation and several Korean cartoon firms. The basic characters -- spunky teenager Jonny Quest, his scientist dad Benton Quest, his muscular teacher-guardian Race Bannon, his mystical best pal (and now adoptive brother) Hadji, and his little dog Bandit -- remained intact, as did the original series' globetrotting-adventurer premise. This time around, however, there was whole new cast of voiceover actors, including (during the first season, at least) J.D. Roth as Jonny and George Segal as his dad. Also, there was a typically '90s emphasis on computer technology; in fact, Dr. Quest was now described as a "computer genius," ready and willing to use the vast resources of his Quest Foundation, and the limitless opportunities afforded him by his new virtual-reality domain Questworld, to battle the forces of evil. The scripters also broadened the appeal of the series by adding a strong, positive female character, Jessie Bannon, the teenaged daughter of Race Bannon (whose estranged spouse Estella Velasquez also showed up on occasion). Premiering August 26, 1996 and running until April 16, 1997, the 52 episodes of The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest were first-run simulatenously on three different Ted Turner-controlled cable services: TBS, TNT, and The Cartoon Network. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

On Bitter Celebrity Custody Battles...Alpha said "To Cybersleuth. What makes Denise Richards any better than Charlie Sheen??? She didn't go to college either. And two minutes after her good friend separated from her husband Denise started dating him. (Bon Jovi) She has obvioulsy made some really far out remarks to slam Sheen of which many could never be proven. She lost her temper at some photographers and threw laptops off a balcony at a theater. They hit two women below. One in her 80's and one in her 90's. Fortunately they were not harmed. There are two sides to every story. "

On Bitter Celebrity Custody Battles...Cybersleuth said "Charlie Sheen and Denise need to suck it up and do what's best for the child they jointly brought into this world. However, since Denise has been and still is the main caregiver of the children (like most moms), her priority is with the children's best care and support, as it should be. Why all the fighting? For custody? No way should Charlie get any custody. He has serious addictive issues that need professional counseling. And, he will likely never get past these issues that make him feel somehow happier. Charlie, it's all a quick fix scheme to bolster your ego and self-esteem that never works in the long run. Has Charlie been to college or developed his brain and emotional boundaries beyond the next eye-candy woman in his life? He doesn't seem like a happy man at all. And what woman in her right frame of mind would marry a man while he's fighting for custody? Who needs the stress of that scenario? Pass."

On Oprah's Love Couch Confessionals...Cybersleuth said "Katie must not be as together as she sometimes portrays. How she's stayed with him this long is unimaginable. Frankly, Tom Cruise is not what Hollywood is paid to make him look like. He's so NOT handsome and his antics are embarrassing and suspiciously phony. He creeps me out. Suri is a beautiful child but I have my doubts about her paternity. Regardless, I am so through with hearing about how much her clothing costs (enough to feed many hungry people, if these two were the least bit altruistic)and the bratty behaviors she is developing as the little princess complex takes over. She's going to be a mess when she gets older, thinking people are in her life to cater to her every whim. Personally, I can't until the day Katie tells Tom the marriage is over and she's done with him."

On Oprah's Love Couch Confessionals...Cybersleuth said "How does one keep a family of five in a NYC apartment? I can't imagine not being able to go out my back door to walk on the beach or play with the dogs on the grassy lawn. Or, walk to a friends house next door. Do they have a house somewhere else in NY that is not in the city?"

Cybersleuth said "Time away from each other is what's likely needed for Angelina and Brad. Angelina is on the mommy track and Brad is on the making money for his growing family track. Jen is really an instigator of problems in this marriage with her continued texting during his time away from Angelina. Shame on Jen for being a home wrecker. However, it takes two to play that game and Brad is just as guilty for becoming further involved with Jen, even if she's just a friend. We all know how those kinds of relationships develop. Brad needs to do some soul searching and growing up. Angelina is strong enough to survive on her own and I hope she gets involved in the Foster Parenting Program in her state. She could be a great spokesperson once she sets her mind to it. And Angelina, eat a hamburger, girl. If you are too thin and wasting away yourself, those kids will suffer, too. A healthy, happy mommy is so much better than an emaciated, stressed out mommy. Let Brad go if he needs to. You can't hold on to someone who's intent on self destruction. "
