Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The Adventures of Marco Polo, Jr. is, as if you haven't guessed, geared for children. This Australian animated cartoon feature relates the exploits of an Italian lad who is descended from the legendary Far East explorer Marco Polo. The emphasis is on comedy, so it's advisable not to become too anxious during the more danger-filled moments. The voice cast includes singer Bobby Rydell and comedian Arnold Stang. The Adventures of Marco Polo Jr. received its widest American exposure over the Showtime Cable Network in 1983 and 1984.
