For the 2nd straight year, Dick Clark (American Bandstand) was called on to host ABC's Saturday morning preview special in primetime. The freshman class of 1983:
Rubik, The Amazing Cube.
Monchichis.
The Littles.
Scooby & Scrappy-Doo was rechristened The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries, and would have that title for 2 seasons (1983-5).
Super Friends was actually off the air to start the season. By the time the ABC affiliate in the 518 resumed airing cartoons around Christmas, the series returned just in time.
We've reviewed all of the freshmen series, including the interstitals with Menudo.
Frank Welker is our announcer, after appearing on camera the previous year.
Didn't see this the first time. No rating.
