Teenage Toons: Are 4 principals better than 1? (1969)

Sabrina, The Teenage Witch means well, but magically cloning Riverdale High principal Waldo Weatherbee so he can take care of all of his business is bound to bring disaster. It doesn't help that a flu bug has sidelined a custodian and 2 teachers, leaving Miss Grundy to teach additional classes. Don't they have a budget to hire substitutes for that?

Edit, 11/13/19: Had to change the video, as Manny Mateer's account has been terminated, or so it'd appear. This copy includes the debut of Ug the "Caveman":


Someone commented on YouTube that actress Jane Webb based her Sabrina voice on Marilyn Monroe. Hmmmmmmmmm. Despite the fact that Sabrina's a platinum blonde, there is that influence, not that a lot of teenage boys back then would've noticed.

Rating: B.
