Agree about Jonny Q. Loved SR, too.
My recollection was that Speed Racer was on The awesome Channel 52 in the afternoons? Though, I do recall that one of the VHF channels had Speed Racer and Kimba, one after the other, on Sat mornings for a while?
Channel 52 was great. Iirc, that's the channel showed The Stooges, Addams Family, Little Rascals and things like that in the afternoons.
I may be a little older than you, I prefer pre-1971 children's shows. Literally any kind of cartoon from pre-1971 (including Jonny Q and Speed Racer), the original Gumby.
I loved the Herculoids, fwiw. And, if I had the time, I'd watch any cartoon from the 50's and earlier. I have a weird theory that if you want to see what life was like in an earlier era, watch cartoons from that era. Quite often the cartoon is based on the character doing everyday things and having mishaps. Especially the older ones.
