You Haven't Made it Unless You Were a Guest Star on Scooby-Doo

I've had the song "Pretty Mary Sunlight" stuck in my head for weeks now.  I only know this song from watching Scooby-Doo as a kid.  Remember the season (I think the name was changed to ("The New Scooby-Doo Movies") when the gang had famous guest stars join their capers?  Don Knotts, Sandy Duncan, Sonny and Cher, Mama Cass, Davy Jones from the Monkees, and Jerry Reed!  The Jerry Reed episode included him singing "Pretty Mary Sunlight."

I've been listening to old TV soundtracks again (The Brady Bunch, Partridge Family, etc.) to appease my inner-child, and I must have summoned this song from the deep creases of my aging gray matter.  I remember dancing around (when no one else was looking) the family room to "Pretty Mary Sunlight" whenever that particular episode aired.  It was kooky!  So, for all of you Gen Xers out there, click play and relive it with me!

My inner child wants to see the Don Knots and Phyllis Diller episodes, plus the one w/Josie and Pussycats. I think my adult self would be equally curious about the Mama Cass episode. Actually, I'd be curious to see any of the ones w/guest stars really.

Well Ariel, as a matter of fact, I remember those episodes myself. I think I did find the Mama Cass episode on youtube. I'll see what I can find. That season is available on a DVD boxed set from Amazon (I think I put a link to it on the post)!
