Richie Rich, also known as The Richie Rich Show, is an American animated comedy television series produced by Hanna-Barbera (H-B) for ABC's Saturday morning children's programming. It ran from 1980 to 1983, airing 42 episodes that spanned four seasons. Before they shorts were all brought together to form its own independent series, Richie Rich was always paired up with another series for each season; the first two seasons were paired with Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo for The Richie Richie/Scooby-Doo Show, the third season was paired with Pac-Man and The Little Rascals for The Pac-Man/Little Rascals/Richie Rich Show, and the fourth and final season was paired with Monchhichis and Little Rascals for The Monchhichis/Little Rascals/Richie Rich Show.
