One more post and I'd be admiss if I did not mention this one: Emergency + 4. The series ran for two or three seasons on NBC and featured the voices of Randolph Mantooth as John Gage and Kevin Tighe as Roy De Soto.

Young Samson and Frankenstein Jr are two early action/adventure ones I recall watching alongside Jonny Quest. 
(The Impossibles must not've made much of an impact on me.) That was early 70's and must've been near the end of their re-run cycle because I only caught 'em a few times before they disappeared. Oddly enough I never wondered why the dog would turn into a lion.
Around the same time that I watched Underdog & Tenessee Tuxedo, I was catching a cartoon cousin of Bullwinkle's, Hoppity Hooper.

Watched all the versions of this one too.

YouTube - Emergency +4 (1973) - OPENING
I have only one of these eps on tape. I can remember back in the day watching this in my brother's room. I even learned the term "Buddy Breathing".

>Mighty Orbots
OH YEAH!!!! Second greatest cartoon ever! I remember how weird it was to see an actual ending for a cartoon series back in the day.
>no one remembers "Battle of the Planets"! Not even when I use the name "G-Force". I loved that show and no one seems to remember it existed.
ANother classic! I used to love it right until I got to the U and had a chance to see the original Japanese version. (Gatchaman) The Japanese one is a LOT better. The first series is available on disk; Rhino Video did the first 50 or so, with the American and Japanese versions of each; and ADV did the whole series, Japanese version only.
>they remember "The Snorks"
*shudder* Underwater Smurfs.
>and "Trollkins" (which doesn't even rate a Wikipedia entry),
I'm surprised someone else remebers Trollkins. It was a cross between the Smurfs, and the Dukes of Hazard. In a tree. (No, really!)
>An obscure toon that I always liked was The Mighty Hercules.
Here in Canada it wasn't obscure; Global ran it every day... pretty much forever! That theme REALLY gets stuck in your head....
....and yeah, I wanted someone to smack Newton too.

One of my earliest memories was being in a hotel room in Ventnor NJ
watching that show and eating a slice of American cheese (as babies do).
I must have been not much older than 1 (around 1972 or '73).
I liked that show when I was a baby---what did I know?
I'll tell ya somethin'---to this DAY---that theme song is one
of my greatest nostalgic songs to listen to.
