But you're dead on about Space Ghost Coast to Coast (a brilliant brilliant show), and Sealab.
Why did they repurpose the old cartoons? Because Ted Turner bought a bunch of 60's, 70's, and 80's stock of Hanna Barbera cartoons when he started Cartoon Network, that really just sat around and played late at night.
So when Space Ghost was first starting out (well before AdultSwim) this is how the show got on, the price justification of reusing old cartoons. Because Ted Turner had already spent a small fortune buying cartoons for his network, and he didn't want to spend more.
