From Famous Classic Tales:
It's safe to say the series had found its footing again after having only produced one new episode during the 1974-5 season. There were five the next year, and Jules Verne's Journey to The Center of The Earth was the pentultimate episode of the 1976-7 season.
As you can see, this was a more faithful adaptation of Verne's classic than Filmation's 1967 Saturday morning entry for ABC. However, Professor Lindenbrook is shown here as more of the stereotypical eccentric scientist. Whether or not that was Verne's original vision, I cannot say. I never read the book.
Rating: B.
