''Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!'' is about the exploits of four teenagers and their Great Dane named [[Scooby-Doo (character)|Scooby-Doo]] who usually happen to walk into a mystery usually involving the exaggerated crime of a criminal (who can be anything between a real-estate developer or jewel thief), who tries to cover up his misdeeds by dressing up as a ghoulish monster. Clues are left in its wake, which the kids (dubbed [[Mystery Incorporated]] in later incarnations) find and put together, leading to the discovery of who the culprit is, which the local authorities are unable to do themselves. A large part of the premise of the series is the bungling of Scooby and his owner, [[Shaggy Rogers]], who inevitably run into and accidentally capture the monster in one of [[Fred Jones]]'s intricately devised traps, despite trying to do everything to avoid it. | ''Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!'' is about the exploits of four teenagers and their Great Dane named [[Scooby-Doo (character)|Scooby-Doo]] who usually happen to walk into a mystery usually involving the exaggerated crime of a criminal (who can be anything between a real-estate developer or jewel thief), who tries to cover up his misdeeds by dressing up as a ghoulish monster.

Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! is an American animated mystery comedy TV series produced by Hanna-Barbera (H-B) for CBS' Saturday morning children's programming. It ran from 1969 to 1970, airing 25 episodes, although the name was brought back by ABC for eight episodes in 1978, although these are usually better known for being part of The Scooby-Doo Show. The series proved to be a hit and has since been rerun on Cartoon Network and Boomerang, and spawned several spin-offs, TV specials, and films.
Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! is about the exploits of four teenagers and their Great Dane named Scooby-Doo who usually happen to walk into a mystery usually involving the exaggerated crime of a criminal (who can be anything between a real-estate developer or jewel thief), who tries to cover up his misdeeds by dressing up as a ghoulish monster. Clues are left in its wake, which the kids (dubbed Mystery Incorporated in later incarnations) find and put together, leading to the discovery of who the culprit is, which the local authorities are unable to do themselves. A large part of the premise of the series is the bungling of Scooby and his owner, Shaggy Rogers, who inevitably run into and accidentally capture the monster in one of Fred Jones's intricately devised traps, despite trying to do everything to avoid it.
The entire series has been released on both DVD and Blu-ray Disc.
