1973 ABC Saturday Morning Cartoons Sneek Peek with Jack Burns and Avery Schreiber:
It was the 1973 ABC Saturday Morning Funtime Preview hosted by the comedy duo of Jack Burns and Avery Schreiber, two Borscht Belt comedians who looked totally lost pitching the new years Saturday morning cartoons to all the kid. There are very few programs from 1973 that have held the test of time, with the Super Friends being the most famous, but 1973 was also the year that both pop star Rick Springfield and Lassie got their own cartoons, and Yogi Bear and all the gang went all ecology crazy on the adventures of Yogi's Ark Lark. It was a real wreck of a year for cartoons, and the preview show was as bad as you possibly can imagine it. But still there's something about watching future Love Connection host Chuck Woolery as the Man of Steel that's hard not to like. That and this picture of Rick Springfield and Yogi Bear just hanging out.
The bad this is the person who uploaded this has yet to upload the second have of the program but at least you get to see Chuck Woolery as Superman!
