When that proved to be a ratings success for ABC, the network ordered more episodes that focused squarely on the antics of Scooby, Scrappy, and best friend, [[Shaggy Rogers|Shaggy]], and dropped the obvious boring side of [[Fred Jones|Fred]], [[Daphne Blake|Daphne]], and [[Velma Dinkley|Velma]] (although for the next two seasons, the title cards kept them alive in the form of silhouettes in the background). Scooby, Scrappy, and Shaggy still solved mysteries to an extent, but not in the traditional sense fans had come to expect over the last decade. Unlike what had come before, the trio ran into real vampires, witches, etc.

For the fourth and final year, Shaggy and the dogs solved cases for the [[Fearless Detective Agency]], owned by Shaggy's uncle, [[Fearless Shagaford]]. In addition, it featured another set of shorts, ''[[Scrappy & Yabba-Doo]]'', starring Scrappy who has visited his other uncle [[Yabba-Doo]] in an old western-type town called [[Tumbleweed County]]. Yabba is owned by [[Deputy Dusty]]. How these fit into the rest of the series timeline is never established.
The first season was made of sixteen episodes that were 21 minutes in length, whereas the rest of the series was made of seven minute shorts. The shorts in the second and third seasons were originally paired with ''[[Richie Rich (TV series)|Richie Rich]]'' for ''[[The Richie Rich/Scooby-Doo Show]]''.
 
The shorts of the fourth and final season were originally paired with ''The Puppy's Further Adventures'' for ''[[The Scooby & Scrappy-Doo/​Puppy Hour]]''. In these, the format was given some focus around Shaggy and the dogs solved cases for the [[Fearless Detective Agency]], owned by Shaggy's uncle, [[Fearless Shagaford]]. In addition, it featured another set of shorts, ''[[Scrappy & Yabba-Doo]]'', starring Scrappy who has visited his other uncle [[Yabba-Doo]] in an old western-type town called [[Tumbleweed County]]. Yabba is owned by [[Deputy Dusty]]. How these fit into the rest of the series timeline is never established.

Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo is an American animated supernatural/mystery comedy television series produced by Hanna-Barbera (H-B) for ABC's Saturday morning children's programming. It ran from 1979 to 1982, airing 43 episodes that spanned four seasons. It was the fourth Scooby-Doo series after Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!

What or who can save Scooby-Doo from cancelation? Scrappy-Dappy-Doo! Meet the newest member of Mystery Incorporated: Scooby-Doo's nephew, Scrappy-Doo, a puppy who's raring to fight any and all ghosts and meanies who get in his or his uncle's way.

When that proved to be a ratings success for ABC, the network ordered more episodes that focused squarely on the antics of Scooby, Scrappy, and best friend, Shaggy, and dropped the obvious boring side of Fred, Daphne, and Velma (although for the next two seasons, the title cards kept them alive in the form of silhouettes in the background). Scooby, Scrappy, and Shaggy still solved mysteries to an extent, but not in the traditional sense fans had come to expect over the last decade. Unlike what had come before, the trio ran into real vampires, witches, etc.

The first season was made of sixteen episodes that were 21 minutes in length, whereas the rest of the series was made of seven minute shorts. The shorts in the second and third seasons were originally paired with Richie Rich for The Richie Rich/Scooby-Doo Show.

The shorts of the fourth and final season were originally paired with The Puppy's Further Adventures for The Scooby & Scrappy-Doo/​Puppy Hour. In these, the format was given some focus around Shaggy and the dogs solved cases for the Fearless Detective Agency, owned by Shaggy's uncle, Fearless Shagaford. In addition, it featured another set of shorts, Scrappy & Yabba-Doo, starring Scrappy who has visited his other uncle Yabba-Doo in an old western-type town called Tumbleweed County. Yabba is owned by Deputy Dusty. How these fit into the rest of the series timeline is never established.

Cast

In popular culture

  • For series 13, episode 8 of the BBC quiz show Only Connect, host Victoria Coren Mitchell begins by saying, "Good evening. Much of the key work debunking supernatural myths was carried out in the 1970s by American paranormalogists Norville Rogers, Frederick Jones, Daphne Blake, and Velma Dinkley. And if you didn't get that reference then shame on you Only Connect fans. You probably preferred the ones with Scooby-Dum and Scrappy-Doo."
  • In the Superstore episode "Golden Globes Party," Jonah tries to convince his new girlfriend and co-worker, Kelly, that the others like her, the same way the Scooby-Doo gang liked Scrappy, but Kelly says that they hated Scrappy, and he only got to hang out with them because he was related to Scooby. At the end of the episode, she is invited to a bar by Garrett and Mateo, and when she tells Jonah, he playfully says, "Oh, see? Scrappy-Doo."
