When CN was playing SDWAY "Jeepers it's the Creeper" this afternoon; in the barn dance scene, I notice a girl who looked just like Daphne prototype Kelly.
You can see the prototypes of all four kids here:

She had on purple, and looks alot like Daphne, but without the barrette, and more of a blonde color. I said "could those actually be the prototypes in there?" I rewinded, and sure enough, I see a guy in a reddish-orange button down shirt who looks just like WW, Shaggy's prototype! (completely different; basically opposite look from the eventual "Shaggy"). I then look for the other two characters, and one or two of the other guys looked like they could be Ronnie (who looks like Alan from Josie), but the hair was dark, and there was no ascot. You did not have any other girls with long hair like Linda, but there was another who looked kind of like Velma with the same tyoe fof hair and glasses, and others who could have been Linda with shorter hai, but you really don't get a good or long enough glimpse of them.

This is interesting, and something everyobody has missed, if it is true (but then how many have seen this picture of the prototypes)?

You know the characters that eventully became Shaggy and Velma were brother and sister. Originally Shaggy and Velma were going to be siblings.

The girl in the lower right Linda, looks like Sharon from the SDWAY episode "What The Hex Is Going On Here". The next time I see the episode, I might look at it different, thinking that girl might have been part of the Mystery Inc. gang. Though I always thought Sharon was almost exactly like Daphne, had a rich family and danger prone. We didn't need two danger prone heiresses.
