100. Josie and the Pussycats

The success of the animated Archie Show was big, as it extended into music with The Archies hit song "Sugar, Sugar." This led to another Archie Comic coming to television with Josie and the Pussycats, which took pre-existing Archie Comics universe character Josie and put her into a new scenario as she formed a band -- the comic book character also reflected the change, in a bit of synergy. Hanna-Barbera produced Josie and it's an amusing show for how it so specifically combined elements from the success of The Archie Show and Hanna-Barbera's own Scooby-Doo, as Josie and her friends not only played music together, but inadvertently stumbled into mysteries they would ultimately help solve.

Despite only running for 16 episodes (not counting the amusing spin-off/continuation Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space), frequent repeats, the spunky characters and a great theme song kept Josie in the public consciousness for years to come, ultimately leading to an underrated film version in 2001.
