Before cartoons became for sissies.
It was the first of several Hanna-Barbera action-based adventure shows – ... – and ran on ABC in prime time on early Friday nights for one season in 1964–1965.

Man, those were the days, for a first grader.

Even Bambi was violent by today's standards.

Yeah, those were the days. They used to carry that in afternoon cartoon time when I was a kid. Lots of action and futuristic tech, but it did always seem vaguely racist.

It's pretty obvious that the beard on Dr. Benton Quest is fake.

Yes there was 1 episode where Race made remarks about skin color, but in context he was posing as a god to intimidate them. I don't recall any other incidents.
I don't mind the DVD releases addressing this, but I hear from reviewers that they have been PC'd to death and not worth buying. One day I may rent them from Netflix, if I ever subscribe.
