Fred "Freddy/Freddie" Jones is the leader of Mystery Incorporated and a character in the Scooby-Doo animated franchise. His voice was originated by Frank Welker.

Throughout the years, Hanna-Barbera, Cartoon Network, and Warner Bros. Animation, as well as book and video game publishers, have conceived several incarnations, which don't always fit together because new writers have come on board and disregarded what has come before or there has been a complete reboot, but the general concept has been the same, except for DC Comics and Max's radically altered Scooby Apocalypse and Velma, respectively.

Character description

Fred is a teenager with blonde hair and a broad physique. His uniform consists of a white sweater over a blue shirt, blue pants, and brown shoes. His most famous attribute is his orange ascot. Alternatively in A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, he instead wears black sneakers and has a white sweater with orange stripes on his sleeves. In What's New, Scooby-Doo?, he traded his ascot for a white sweater with blue stripes.

Throughout the years, Fred's role as the leader of Mystery Inc. has largely been the same. He usually takes the lead in solving mysteries and mostly accompanies Daphne with him; sometimes with Velma also, and other times without her. He is seen constructing various Rube Goldberg-type traps for villains, which Scooby-Doo and/or Shaggy often set off by mistake and allow the villain to be captured the other way. Although a nice guy, Fred can get pretty bossy at times, forcing Shaggy and Scooby to take part in getting the villain despite their fears and/or better judgment. Fred was originally level-headed and confident in his earlier appearances, though this has been shaken up in other incarnations of his character.

As a child in A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, Fred is the polar opposite of his older self, being less intelligent, more hyperactive and superstitious. He frequently gets picked on by bully Red Herring, and is always the one to accuse him on many accounts of a mystery. He is a subscriber to the National Exaggerator magazine, believing in "real" monsters and making up some wild conspiracies.

Fred's interests include traps, solving mysteries, martial arts, wrestling, and weightlifting; a recurring joke in What's New, Scooby-Doo? is that he would boast about bench pressing 220.

Biography

Scoobyless Riverdale

Fred is portrayed as a shallow, spoiled jerk with misogynist tendencies, claiming he can't remember Velma's name because he blatantly thinks that she's unattractive.

Fred Sells Out

The gang gets help from State Farm agent Lucy Rodas after the Mystery Machine gets knocked into a ditch by the Creeper.

Rob reads some text from Timmy, the Internet, finding a show to replace Rob's eternal nemesis Gumball that would be something akin to Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, with a Great Dane and his "kooky friends" who solve mysteries in a van, but then the kids would have to switch to another channel to watch that.

Looneyverse

In the Duck Dodgers episode "Surf the Stars," During the surfing montage where Duck Dodgers and the Crusher run by in various outfits, Mystery Inc. briefly runs by the screen.

In the Warner Bros. ServerVerse in Space Jam: A New Legacy, the gang (based on their SCOOB! designs), arrives at the basketball game between the Tune Squad and the Goon Squad in the Mystery Machine, then watch from outside the van. Mystery Inc., like all the other IPs, has no particular preference and just reacts to whatever is happening.

• 

Titans Go!

Fred and his friends are forced by Control Freak to compete against the Teen Titans in a game of Family Feud.

Mystery Inc. are guests at Warner Bros.' 100th anniversary party at their Burbank studio, where the Teen Titans are acting as security.

Fred in the Cyber Realm of Video Games

Fred is a playable character in Scooby-Doo! Mystery of the Fun Park Phantom, Scooby-Doo! First Frights, and Scooby-Doo! and the Spooky Swamp.

Development

Fred's template was the title character of the radio show Jack Armstrong, All-American Boy, with a bit of Dobie Gillis from the 1960s sitcom The Many Lives of Dobie Gillis.

Fred went through three different names before Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! aired. He began as Geoff, then Harvey, then Ronnie in storyboards, until Fred Silverman, then head of CBS' children's programming, recommended his own name.

When developing Be Cool, Scooby-Doo!, co-creator Jon Colton Barry patterned Fred on Gene Wilder's character Frederick Frankenstein from the 1974 film Young Frankenstein.

Behind the scenes

• Despite popular belief that Fred has no catchphrase, it is suggested in most appearances that his catchphrases are something similar to "Another mystery solved", "Let's split up" and "Looks like we have a(nother) mystery on our hands". Despite this, he does not have a catchphrase when suprised like with the other Mystery Inc. members (e.g. "Zoinks!", "Jinkies!", and "Jeepers!").
  • Fred shamefully admits not having it at one point in Scooby-Doo! and the Samurai Sword, when the rest of the gang say their unique phrases.
  • More recently, Fred would occasionally say "Hold the phone!" when he finds an important discovery.

• "Episode Five" (series 2): On The Jerry Springer Show, Shaggy is one of the guests because his friends think he is in love with Scooby. Velma says that when they split up, she and Daphne go with Fred, but Shaggy goes with Scooby. Springer also refers to the van, making their situation even more questionable. Scooby gives a couple of affirmative grunts. He wraps it up quickly with a final thought that Shaggy would've gotten away with it, too, if it wasn't for his pesky friends.
• "Episode Three" (series 5): In response to Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within using cartoon characters instead of real actors, Hollywood actors have taken to do the same. A segue with an element of The New Scooby-Doo Movies theme song, reveals that Russell Crowe and John Gielgud have taken on the roles of Shaggy and Scooby, respectively, in a case at an abandoned fairground haunted by Mr. Johnson to keep people away from the gold mine. Despite playing Shaggy, Crowe still has shaken his previous role of Maximus Decimus Meridius from Gladiator (a recurring gag on Dead Ringers), and when he responds to Velma, he paraphrases Maximus's famous quote, "My name is Maximus Decimus Shaggimus. Owner of a cowardly dog [Scooby], friend to a suspiciously gay-looking man [Fred]. And I would've had my vengeance, but I was, like, really scared. Zoinks!"
• "Episode Two" (series 15): Mystery Incorporated (namely, Shaggy, Scooby, Fred, and Velma) investigates a murder at the Britain's Got Talent studio, which Shaggy says is scarier than the abandoned fun fair, abandoned haunted house, and disused slaughterhouse combined. He then gets scared by the sight of a "creature with a totally expressionless face, which Fred says is only Amanda Holden, one of the judges. Fred says at this point in the adventure, they'd meet a kindly, old janitor. Just then, Simon Cowell pops up. Fred uses this as an opportunity to ask Cowell about how tricking Britain into voting for Matisse, the Border Collie, when the best tricks were done by a stunt double, but Cowell retorts that it was easy when Britain has got nothing better to do on a Saturday night. Revealed as the evil genius that he is, Cowell responds with the classic line, "And I would've gotten away with it too, if it wasn't for you pesky kids, and Ofcom."

Mr. Montgomery's lawyer argues that their prior criminal activities for "meddling" on several occasions meant that they were looking for trouble and implicated that Mr. Montgomery was innocent.
