Has anybody seen the intro from the 1978 season of Laff-A-Lympics? (as in the package show as a whole). The DVDs/Warner's current video masters use the 1977 intro, but use the 1978 credits for some reason, which of course has a small amount of unique animation that would have also been found in the intro. I don't think season 2's full opening has ever surfaced.

The 1977 is the one that says "Scooby's All Star Laff-a-Lympics" and the 1978 is the one that's just "Laff-a-Lympics" and has Snagglepuss doing a voiceover, right? If so, then I've seen the original 1978 on Boomerang reruns. |

If so, then I've seen the original 1978 on Boomerang reruns. I know which one you mean. That one seems to be the standard short intro for the Laff-A-Lympics segment/episode of the block itself. I could be mistaken, but I think it was also used for syndication. Dynomutt Dog Wonder also opened with a short, 30 second intro in the original ABC run when it was packaged with The Scooby-Doo Show: Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels also has a short, 30 second standalone intro. By Scooby's All Stars, I mean the intro for the whole programming block that would've included Laff-A-Lympics, Captain Caveman, and season 3 of The Scooby-Doo Show in '78:  |

Some of those package show intros and bumpers are pretty rare to find copies of nowadays. Back then some network executives liked the idea that the show itself was a package brand instead of just building bumps at the network to label it as such. Most of those group intros were retired as most of which were broken down into their individual half hour parts for their airings in syndication and cable where a lot of us younger viewers (well younger than the original airings that is) first saw them.
This is one I don't think i've ever seen either. And for some reason that's never really been solved the Turner masters seem to use the single laff-a-lympics intro for all the episodes while the vault masters seem to use the Scooby's All Star Laff-a-lympics intro on all the episodes.
