This was the second attempt to create an animated series based on the Bond franchise.

The series never came to fruition.^[2]

Eon Productions later began developing what would become James Bond Jr. The show was produced by Murakami-Wolf-Swenson and MGM Television, and debuted on 16 September 1991, with a total of 65 half-hour episodes produced.

James Bond Jr. was fully sanctioned by, and produced in association with, Danjaq
