I couldn't stand her. I think she was supposed to be considered cute, but I always thought she was homely.
Found a later pic on an Emergency tribute site -- she got better with age, not quite homely, but no raving hunny. At least she didn't resort to the bandanna!

It really went down when they started their own "Battle of the Network Stars" type cross-character competition.
Among the worst, the 1970s Tom & Jerry cartoons (with a host who did a bad Howard Cossell type voice). Tom & Jerry as friends??? UGH!

All those Scooby-doo *movies* with Sonny and Cher, Don Knotts, the Three Stooges (not the real dudes, of course), The Harlem Globetrotters, Scooby in love with Sandy Duncan, his eyes would turn to hearts when he looked at her ...
To think kids these days only get the Power-Puff girls and Ed, Edd, and Eddy. Poor lil deprived ones ...

Sandy Duncan on a kids' cartoon as herself. Yeah, there was a career decision that did not help her or Scooby.

A reminder of how things were back in the 1970s:
They are probably all billionaires now so laugh when and where you can.

Shaggy once said, "Hey,like I'm rich biatch!"

News of the Day...
Did you guys hear that Beaver Cleaver turned 57 today?
Did you hear that Rod Stewart is gonna be a daddy again?
I have no idea who the lucky sperm recipient is....
I thought this was valid 70's news.
