Wolf Rock TV - The 1984 animated musical series

Wolf Rock TV is a 1984 American animated series produced by DIC Enterprises and Dick Clark Productions, with the voice of Wolfman Jack. The series ran for seven episodes on ABC before being canceled due to low ratings. [1] Wolf Rock TV was replaced by Scary Scooby Funnies; which consisted of reruns of Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo shorts from The Richie Rich / Scooby-Doo Show (1980-1982).

The series was then syndicated in 1989 with the other animated series Kidd Video in a segment known as “The Wolf Rock Power Hour”. [2] As of 2021, copies of the series are not available to the public, although some animated films and merchandising related to the show have emerged.
