From Comics to Toons: Pot Luck (The Archie & Sabrina Hour, 1977)

 Archie, Sabrina, and the rest of the gang have plans for a big event, but Jughead (Howard Morris) mistakenly customizes Mr. Weatherbee's car, and that forces a change. Chili replaces chicken on the menu, and when Sabrina (Jane Webb) borrows her aunts' cauldron, she doesn't realize there's a curse attached!

We're finally going to meet Carlos (Jose Flores, ex-Ark II), a short-lived addition to the gang.

Here's "Pot Luck":


Flores was not the only actor to transition to cartoons while at Filmation. In fact, this series was his only other credit. Ty Henderson, who co-starred on Space Academy this same season, made the switch the following season to co-star in Superstretch & Micro Woman, part of Tarzan & The Super 7.

Rating: B.
