I watched the first season and a bit.
Does it actually have an "ending"?

For some reason everybody sounds like they're in a cartoon and in all fairnes the show also plays out that way, like Rick & Morty and Gravity Falls. A little too retarded to be really good, but it did have plenty of laughs throughout the seasons.

Yes and no. It has KIND of an ending they must have pulled outa their ass at the last minute. An ending with a cliffhanger, so I don't know what they were thinking. My guess is that John C. McGinley wanted out after season 3 and the director thought they could go on without him. But no, the show got cancelled.

Servant Season 1 4/10

Now I'm certain M. Night is an alien who has no clue how humans are human.

Wouldn't call this show horror. Heck, I'm not even sure there is a bad guy in it or if there is I have no idea who that would be. Nobody does anything really bad. It's just M. Night weird.

War of the Worlds -

Apparently there are two recent foreign made War of the Worlds TV shows. The one I'm watching is on EPIX channel. It's only 8 episodes. I have a few more left. I'll post final thoughts then.

Nice!!! loved Jonny Quest cartoons! The opening (1964) (intro music with the clips) is really a masterpiece.

So how are the eps hitting ya as an adult? I usually find "you can never go back" to the enjoyment you had as a kid seeing something, but sometimes gain a new appreciation.

I was just looking a some Amazon reviews... with at least "Jonny Quest - The Complete First Season" Golden Collection, not sure what company produced and is selling this, but reviewers are writing:

"I'm so tired of all this "PC" crap! The "Pursuit of the Po Ho" has some of the dialog removed, The lines "ignorant savages" and "heathen monkeys". In the episode of "Monsters in the Monastary" the line "Uh-oh. Here comes the Oriental Express" is deleted. All you see is Jonny's mouth move. "

"I once bought the set of DVDs and was horrified at all the edits. Apparently the studio brass decided to "scrub them clean" of anything politically incorrect for the packaged sets sold in bookstores with expensive coffee."

I guess I got lucky, Sculpt...just watched "Pursuit of the Po-Ho" the other night and those phrases were all in there, along with "Devils".
I remember really liking JQ in Kindergarten/first Grade with "Turn The Terrible" (Giant pterodactyl shown in the credits), although being frightened by some episodes, especially the Mummy, The Invisible Monster and the old Nazi. Found some VHS's
in the 90's at my local video store and found they still held up.
In Adult hindsight, I would have to admit the show is pretty racist -all the Villains , for the most part, are Asian, African or Latino, along with a smattering of Slavic as well. Must remember The Cold War was quite intense during that time and Vietnam was beginning to heat up. Also, despite technology available, the World was still a larger place than it is now.

Lots of Cool gadgetry, especially the Flight packs and "Race" is a true Bad-Ass! One thing for sure, I would leave "Bandit" in a kennel; he's truly more of a hindrance than a help. Reminds Me a lot of Spritle and Chim-Chim from SPEED RACER.
LOVED SR in Fourth Grade, but unlike JQ, it has not aged well
