''The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest'' premiered on all three major [[Turner Broadcasting System]] entertainment cable channels ([[Cartoon Network]], [[TBS (American TV channel)|TBS]], and [[TNT (American TV network)|TNT]]). This Quest redux returned in the late 1990s on [[Cartoon Network]], as part of the original [[Toonami]] rotation when the block launched on March 17, 1997, and aired consistently on Toonami until September 24, 1999. It then continued to air sporadically until December 14, 2002. Almost seven years later (February 17, 2009), the first thirteen episodes of "season one" became available on DVD. Characters Jonny, Hadji, and Jessie are now older teenagers, and Dr. Quest's compound has moved from TK{{clarify|date=April 2024}} to a rocky island off the coast of Maine.

Rumors of a problem-laden production surrounded this series since 1992. When finally broadcast, it featured two different versions of its own Quest-ian universe: the first batch of episodes (referred to as the "season one" episodes) gave the team a futuristic look; while the second batch (referred to as "season two") harkened to original episodes from the 1960s. Several "season one" - and a few "season two" - adventures in this series took place in a cyberspace realm known as "[[Questworld]]", depicted using [[3D computer graphics|3-D]] [[computer animation]]. Both "seasons" aired during the same 1996–1997 television season. The show was canceled after 52 episodes (26 of each season), and plans for a live-action movie (to debut following the series premiere) never materialized.<ref name="brandweek2">{{cite magazine |last = Lefton |first = Terry |title = Turner Relaunches 'Quest' |date=June 19, 1995 |magazine = [[Brandweek]] |volume = 36 |issue = 25}}</ref>

Dr. Zin never appeared or was mentioned in Season 1, the series instead focusing on new recurring villains Jeremiah Surd and Ezekiel Rage mostly. However, the creators felt this series failed to capture enough of the spirit of the original, so they brought Zin back<ref name=SMF>[https://books.google.com/books?id=NA7TxrK6FkcC Saturday morning fever], Timothy Burke, Kevin Burke pages 113–116</ref> (second-season, episode "Nemesis"), revealing himself very much alive to Quest, as he holds a NASA station hostage amid the launching of a new satellite.
