Cartoon Quest was a block of mostly animated television shows that aired on the Sci Fi Channel starting in 1992. Similar to USA's Cartoon Express, it featured reruns of various older cartoons interspersed with interstitial segments; in this case, focusing on a live-action family (all clad in loincloths) exploring a strange region. During its run, the block aired every Saturday from 7:00 AM to 11:00 AM EST.{{cite web|title=Sci-Fi Cartoon Quest Promo Commercial|url=http://www.retrojunk.com/commercial/show/2366/scifi-cartoon-quest|website=Retro Junk|access-date=16 January 2016}}
