The Scooby-Doo Show is an American animated mystery comedy television series produced by Hanna-Barbera (H-B) for ABC's Saturday morning children's programming. It ran from 1976 to 1978, airing 40 episodes that spanned three seasons. It was the third Scooby-Doo series after Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!

Mystery Incorporated returns, but this time on ABC instead of CBS, which had aired the last new Scooby-Doo episode in 1973. Gone are the celebrities of the last series, with the gang back to solving mysteries in the same format as Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!

For all intents and purposes, this could be considered the last "true" Scooby-Doo series (if you didn't already think real-life celebrities weren't jumping the shark), as the next series focused its energy on the addition of Scooby-Doo's nephew, Scrappy-Doo.
