This TV movie is not set after any of the previous two Jonny Quest TV series, but a completely new continuity. This is evident that firstly, Jonny Quest's mother is alive in the beginning of the TV movie and Hadji was already living with the Quest family. In the original TV show, Hadji first met the Quest family sometime after Jonny's mother had died. Secondly, Hardrock from the 1986 TV series was never seen or refer to in this TV movie.

Jeffrey Tambor who voiced Dr. Zin in this TV movie previously did the voice of Hardrock from the previous Jonny Quest show.

Don Messick, Granville Van Dusen and Rob Paulsen reprised their roles from The New Adventures of Jonny Quest.

Meredith MacRae's final role.

The first H-B movie to be premiered on cable channels instead of primetime broadcast/syndicated channels after the Turner soldout in 1991, and the only movie to be produced and premiered on USA Network after the launch of Cartoon Network in 1992.
