Oh man, check out this blast from the past found in kerrytoonz‘s Flickr photostream:

“This ad is from TV Guide that was for a preview show that aired the Friday before the Saturday morning fall lineup, and featured Hanna-Barbera cartoons Super Friends, and Scooby and Scrappy Doo. The show was filmed at a theme park, which I believe was Magic Mountain and had Scooby Doo in a costume and Weird Al Yankovic as the host.” — kerrytoonz

ABC Saturday Morning Cartoon Preview ad, 1984 on Flickr.

Wow, I remember Turbo Teen and Dragon’s Lair (I used to love the video game).   Wolfman Jack had a cartoon series?!?  Huh.  And interesting to note, Weird Al is wearing one sequined glove like MJ for “no apparent reason”.  heh.
