Shirley Jones said (https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/the-partridge-family-shirley-jones-had-some-issues-with-famous-guest-stars.html/) in her book (https://parade.com/58537/viannguyen/7-surprising-secrets-of-the-partridge-family-cast-from-shirley-joness-memoir/) that she didn't enjoy working with (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065333/trivia/?ref_=tt_dyk_trv) Dick Clark, Richard Pryor, or Ray Bogler, who played her father on the show (that is until the final season, when Jackie Coogan was recast as Shirley's dad).

On Richard Pryor (https://www.grunge.com/64584/untold-truth-richard-pryor/), Shirley said that he was high on drugs when he did his guest appearance. As for Ray Bogler, according to Shirley, he was irritable and wanting everything to be done his way. I couldn't find anything specific about what exactly Shirley didn't like about Dick Clark.
