Norville "Shaggy" Rogers is a member of Mystery Incorporated and a character of the Scooby-Doo animated franchise. His voice was originated by Casey Kasem.

He is the owner and best friend of their team's mascot: Scooby-Doo, a talking Great Dane, who is the main character and the protagonist of the aforementioned Scooby-Doo franchise, making Shaggy the deuteragonist, and sometimes at times even protagonist.

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

“ I'm so scared, I wish I had a ham sandwich to calm my nerves!
― Shaggy Rogers, Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, "Hassle in the Castle" (1969) 		”

Shaggy is a tall and lanky teenager. He has whiskers on his chin, forming some kind of a goatee. His signature attire usually consists of a green V-neck shirt, brown bell-bottom pants, and black shoes. In The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo and the 80s made-for-TV films, he instead wore a red shirt and blue jeans.

Shaggy is described as something of a hippie due to his laid back personality, messy hair, and frequent use of the word "Like" in his speech. He and his dog Scooby share a nearly unstable appetite for food, as well as their tendency of goofing off. Shaggy gets extremely scared when faced with monsters or other scary scenarios, usually in display of much greater cowardice than any other character except for Scooby. Shaggy doesn't usually help out Mystery Inc. in mysteries, but is often bribed with Scooby Snacks, which temporarily cures him of his timidity.

An avid foodie, Shaggy enjoys many kinds of food, especially when it comes to fast food such as burgers, pizza, hot dogs, sandwiches, ice cream, milkshakes, french fries, and many more. As such, he tends to experiment with strange culinary combinations by using ingredients that contrast different taste qualities (usually a hotchpotch of sweet and savoury items). In some media, primarly in ones where Casey Kasem portrayed him, Shaggy is depicted as a vegetarian who doesn't eat meat. In Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island, Shaggy and Scooby justify their hunger by insisting that "Being in a constant state of terror makes us constantly hungry!"

Biography

Those Original Mysteries

In his first appearance in the episode, "What a Night for a Knight," Daphne said that Shaggy is a gymnast in school, implying that Shaggy—and by extension, the gang—are students in high school.[1]

In "A Clue for Scooby-Doo", after making Velma disgusted with a mention of chocolate-covered hot dogs, Shaggy jokingly remarked that his tastes in food were the result of his first toy being a garbage disposal.[2]

In "Decoy for a Dognapper," Shaggy is first revealed to have acquired an appetite for Scooby Snacks, when Daphne tries to bribe Scooby with one. Shaggy tries for another Scooby Snack, but Scooby blocks him and eats it for Daphne's second attempt.

SCOOB! on the Big Screen

Scoobyless Riverdale

In Velma, Norville (the real name of Shaggy) is African-American and works as a editor-in-chief for the Crystal Cove High School newspaper. He is described in the show as a "beta male," and is initially shown to have a geeky crush on Velma, much to the latter's apathy towards him. He was initially a stoner until he developed a negative stance on drugs.

Shaggy Sells Out

The Planeteers have gone undercover at a school to stop the gang war that led to one of the teachers, Mr. King, being shot, who incidentally is a friend of Gi. When Kwame says to Gi he believes Mr. King will be fine, a couple of students resemble Shaggy and Velma who are having their own conversation.[3]

In the Sabrina, the Teenage Witch episode "Unplugged," Sabrina zaps herself into Leonard's computer to remove footage of when she used her powers in the Scorch office, meeting the screensaver versions of Shaggy and Scooby in the process.

The chase through the hallway doors in Townsville Hall is a parody of chases like those in Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! The Mayor even says Shaggy's catchphrase, "Zoinks," while passing the screen inside a pink van reminiscent of the Mystery Machine.[4]

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.[5]

Looneyverse

In the film Looney Tunes: Back in Action, Scooby and Shaggy are at a restaurant with Matthew Lillard who have umbrage with his portrayal as Shaggy in Scooby-Doo. Shaggy tells Lillard he made him look like a "space cadet" and better not "goof on him" in the sequel, Scooby will offer him a Scooby Snack in a nasty way.

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), arrive 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.

Like a Good Neighbour...

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

Scooby is shocked to discover that Shaggy can't eat after getting a huge bill from Mysteries Insurance, with the narrator suggesting that he should get help from State Farm.

Titans Go!

Shaggy and Scooby pop up as non-speaking cameos in the Mystery Machine next to Beast Boy and Cyborg in the T-Car during their stakeout song.[6]

Shaggy and his friends are forced by Control Freak to compete against the Teen Titans in a game of Family Feud.[7]

Mystery Inc. are guests at Warner Bros.' 100th anniversary party at their Burbank studio, where the Teen Titans are acting as security.[8]

Shaggy in the Cyber Realm of Video Games

Shaggy is a playable character in all of the Scooby-Doo video games. He's also a fighter in MultiVersus.

Development

Shaggy's template when being created was Maynard G. Krebs, a beatnik character portrayed by Bob Denver in the 1960s sitcom The Many Lives of Dobie Gillis.[9] Writer Mark Evanier believes the only similarity that remained when the character was further developed was the goatee.[10] In the intial concept for Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!—then known by its working title of Mysteries Five—Shaggy was originally called "W.W." and slated to be the brother of "Linda" (the character which would later become Velma). The brother-sister dynamic between Shaggy and Velma was dropped when the show was further developed, although shades of that may still be seen in the first episode.

Casey Kasem was initially hesitant when he was first assigned to voice Shaggy. Kasem stated that he was "hip to what hippies were about," and felt that he had never portrayed a hippie character beforehand. Kasem had wanted to voice Fred Jones, while Frank Welker wanted to portray Shaggy. Instead, the CBS network assigned Welker and Kasem to switch their roles, respectively.[11][12] Unsure of what a hippie would sound like, Kasem based his vocal style and mannerisms on those of Richard Crenna's character, Walter Denton, from the radio/television sitcom Our Miss Brooks.[13]

Shaggy's last name was first introduced in stories by Marvel Comics, and then in cartoon form in The New Scooby and Scrappy-Doo Show episode, "Wedding Bell BOOs!" His real name, Norville, was created by Tom Ruegger for A Pup Named Scooby-Doo;[14] He mentioned that he got it from comedian Oliver Norvell Hardy.[15]

When developing Be Cool, Scooby-Doo!, co-creator Jon Colton Barry rewrote Shaggy with Groucho Marx undertones.[16]

Behind the scenes

  • From 2002 to 2009, Shaggy was portrayed as a vegetarian because Casey Kasem, himself a vegetarian, demanded such a change. He originally stopped voicing the character in 1995, after being asked to voice him in a Burger King commercial, and he wouldn't return until the producers agreed to make Shaggy a vegetarian.[17][18]
    • The only other times where Kasem voiced Shaggy during his break was in some TV commercials, and a guest appearance on the Johnny Bravo episode "Bravo Dooby-Doo", which aired in 1997.
  • Some viewers of the original Scooby-Doo believed that Shaggy was a marijuana user due to his laid-back, hippie behavior and constant hunger. Casey Kasem was asked in a Newsweek interview if he had ever observed that subtext in the series, and responded "there wasn't anything like that at all," explaining, "[I] guess it's because, I don't know, it was a wholesome show from beginning to end." Kasem was not aware of the fan viewpoint until the interviewer brought it up.[12]
    • In reference to this supposed reading, the 2002 live-action Scooby-Doo film has a minor character introduce herself to Shaggy as "Mary Jane" (a slang term for marijuana), to which he responds, "Like, that is my favorite name."
      • Series creators Joe Ruby and Ken Spears recalled that they never intended for Shaggy to be a marijuana smoker, and "took umbrage" at the jokes in the film.[19]
    • In response to the urban legend, the Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law episode "Shaggy Busted" revolves around Shaggy and Scooby-Doo being arrested for recreational drug use.
    • In Velma, "Norville Rogers" frequently brings up how much he hates drugs, but becomes a drug addict right ahead in the episode "The Brains of the Operation" and aquires the "Shaggy" nickname.
  • In the 2009 Powerpuff Girls-themed documentary "Who, What, Where, How, Why... Who Cares?," Paul Rudish said that when he met Craig McCracken while at Cal Arts, he walked like Shaggy.

Legacy

In popular culture

WARNING: The following section contains content that may be seen as mature or offensive to some readers. Reader discretion is advised.
Main article: List of pop culture references to Scooby-Doo
  • In the Night Court episode "Paternity," Bull shows off his King-Seeley Scooby-Doo lunch pail (featuring Scooby and Shaggy) to Christine and Roz right after she says that kids grow up fast, or some more slowly than others in Bull's case.
  • In the Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures episode "Don't Touch That Dial," where Mighty Mouse gets sucked into a cartoon called Ring-A-Ding, Where Are You! In the cartoon, there is a Shaggy pastiche called Scuzzy, who is a pale imitation which is the intention. He is tall and talks in the same lingo, but says it in a deadpan manner. Physically, he resembles him quite closely, particularly the way his head is shaped and thin arms and legs, but is bald except for a few frazzled hairs left, along with a few frazzled chin hairs, and a tiny pot belly. He dresses cheaply, wearing a white vest, shorts with a rope acting as a belt, a medallion, and sandals.
  • In the film Slacker, a slacker talks about how Saturday morning cartoons are teaching kids bribery with Scooby-Doo, wherein Shaggy will bribe Scooby with Scooby Snacks to get what he wants. When that slacker says he'll buy the round of beers if the other slacker buys him a pack of cigarettes, the other slacker tries to turn it into an ironic Scooby Snacks bribe.
  • In the Tiny Toon Adventures episode "You Asked for It" ("Duck Out of Luck" segment), when the fighter jets target the King Kong-sized Plucky Duck, one jet shoots anything but actual missiles, such as Shaggy.
  • In Judge Dredd: The Megazine #13-15, there is a group of Sov-Block freelance enforcers (who call themselves the Spooky Doo Gang) who are hired by Chief Judge Ricky to retrieve the corpse of Elvis Presley. They drive the Mystery Machine, but the van is blue and some of the letters are flipped. Shaggy is called Shabby, acting and looking the same. He is killed in Issue #15.
  • In the Garfield and Friends episode "The Automated, Animated Adventure," Jon takes his idea for a cartoon based on Garfield to the Sprocket Animation Company, where Mr. Sprocket has his own ideas that are just to redo what others have already done such as suggesting that Garfield should expose phony ghosts with three kids every week, with Mr. Sprocket's computer displaying how it would look, with Garfield and the kids outside a spooky mansion, with Garfield in the shaky arms of a Shaggy doppelganger beside a Fred doppelganger, and one black girl with character traits of both Daphne and Velma.
  • In the film Wayne's World, Wayne and Garth are unhappy about the ending to their film, so they redo it by doing the "Scooby-Doo endinguffB" as Garth calls it. They transition back to Wayne's basement, where they unmask Benjamin to be Old Man Withers, who runs the haunted amusement park. Angered by them, he declares, "And I would have gotten away with it, too, if it hadn't been for you snooping kids!" Pleased with the outcome, Garth says to Wayne in a Scooby-like voice, "Good one, Shaggy," and Wayne replies that it was an "excellent Scooby-Doo ending."
  • In The Ben Stiller Show episode "With Colin Quinn:" Ben Stiller plays an older guy who bugs Casey Kasem and his daughter at a restaurant to do his radio and Shaggy voices. Casey reluctantly agrees to get the guy off his back, so Casey says in Shaggy's voice, "Scoob, old buddy, old friend, old pal, I could really dig a pizza."
  • In the film Billy Madison, the title character is forced to retake the first grade (along with the other eleven), being given his lunch in a Scooby-Doo lunch box and thermos for the day. The lunch box and thermos both feature Scooby, Shaggy, Velma, the Creeper, and the Mystery Machine.
  • In the film Divorcing Jack, Dan's wigged disguise gets him more attention, and is made fun of in front of a whole audience by being called Shaggy.
  • In the Sister, Sister episode "The Audition," Mr. Matushka told the students that Casey Kasem would be a returning alumnus guest of Roosevelt High. After failing to get them to recognize Casey for his radio career, he sighed as he had to resort to using his career as the voice of Shaggy on Scooby-Doo to get their attention.
  • In the Animaniacs segment "Back in Style," the Warner siblings are loaned to a Hanna-Barbera-type studio that lets the Warner siblings "play themselves" in its cartoon Uhuru, Where Are You? In this parody, Bristly acts as a stand-in for Shaggy, who says, "Zinc," instead of "Zoinks."
  • In Chris Rice's song "Cartoons," Rice questions if Scooby and Shaggy are religious and would say "Scooby-dooby-doo-loo-yah" in place of "Hallelujah."
  • In the Student Bodies episode "Snowed In," Mags and Flash bond over Scooby-Doo by singing the theme song. When their friends come in, who are surprised the two are getting along, are asked what the nature of Scooby and Scrappy's relationship is, and why a hot girl like Daphne is hanging around a loser like Shaggy, with Romeo simply remarking that she is hot, before their friends leave them again.
  • In the Casper episode "Scaredy Boo, Where Have You Got To?," a gang of mystery solvers (featuring a boy resembling Shaggy), driving the Enigma Mobile, investigate Whipstaff Manor.
  • In the Big Wolf on Campus episode "Stalk Like an Egyptian," Dean is watching an episode of Scooby-Doo, in which he is calling out the authority who is telling Velma to stop meddling, but he tells her to continue while also calling her a "little vixen." An urgent news report then interrupts the episode, which disappoints Dean as Shaggy and Scooby were just about to find out who the "carnival phantom" was, which suggests he is watching "Bedlam in the Big Top," although perhaps the more appropriate episode would've been "Scooby-Doo and a Mummy, Too."
  • In the Arthur segment "The Rat Who Came to Dinner," Shaggy is anthropomorphized as an animal with the rest of the gang in Mr. Ratburn's favourite old show Spooky-Poo.
  • In the Timon and Pumbaa episode "Werehog of London," a fortune teller warns Timon and Pumbaa that no one is safe from the curse of the werehog, not even "those meddling teens and their pesky dog." Then the camera reveals an orange and blue van resembling The Mystery Machine that has been abandoned after it was knocked into a lamp post.
  • In the Sex and the City episode "The Big Time," Steve watches the Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! episode "Jeepers, It's the Creeper," specifically the scene wherein Scooby and Shaggy try to ditch the chick that is following Scooby, who has imprinted him as its mother. This is distracting to Miranda, who is working, so she tells him to turn it down and when he isn't cooperative, she wants him to turn it off, leading her to believe that he isn't mature enough to have a baby. During the debate, she gets frustrated with Steve, asking if they can have a discussion without Scooby-Doo, but Steve is caught up in the episode, which he says is about a ghost in a salt mine (despite that not being the case), and then fools around trying to do Shaggy's voice, saying, "But, Scoobs, what about the ghost?"
  • In the book P.E.A.C.E.: A Novel of Police Terror, two members of the Real Peace vigilante group go on TV wearing a Scooby-Doo mask and dressed as Shaggy.
  • In season 8, episode 15 of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, the £300 question is "What is the name of the cartoon dog who solves mysteries with Shaggy?"
  • In the film Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, the title characters hitchhike in a green van owned by a bunch of odd adults vaguely resembling Mystery Incorporated. The Shaggy doppelganger, referred to in the credits as "The Dude," makes fun of Fred for wearing a neckerchief, gets high from a "doobie snack" from Jay, and then wants to harvest the kidneys of Jay and Silent Bob, but this is just a dream of Jay's.
  • In The Office episode "Merger," David gets in trouble for suggesting that Jennifer should take drugs to make her calmer, going into a joke about getting food for her because she has the munchies like Shaggy eating all those Scooby Snacks for the same reason, "dooby dooby doo" was code for a joint, and saying "Raggy" in a poor attempt to sound like Scooby.
  • In the ¡Mucha Lucha! episode "Mask-Away," Rikochet gets scared by Bueno Girl rustling around in the bushes, which makes him scream, "Zoinks," and jump into the arms of his dog, Masked Dog.
  • In the video game Final Fantasy X-2, Prophet, who is a pastiche of Shaggy, is one of the potential culprits depending on what path you go on in the Mi'ihen Highroad Mystery subquest. When caught, he says, "That's right. Like, it was me. And I would've gotten away with it, too, if it hadn't been for you meddling kids!" When Rin strikes him down for holding a gun at him and his friends, Prophet cries out, "Zoinks!"
  • In the film Freddy vs. Jason, Gibb, Kia, and Lori play a verbal game of "Marry, Fuck, Kill," with the former proposing Fred, Scooby, and Shaggy. Kia and Lori rightly refuse to answer her question.
  • In the film Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie: Pyramid of Light, Tristan yells, "Zoinks," when seeing the mummies.
  • In "Chapter 20" of the Star Wars: Clone Wars series developed by Genndy Tartakovsky, the young nervous Jedi was a parody of Shaggy, as revealed by Tartakovsky in the audio commentary for the episode. John DiMaggio voiced the character. Tartakovsky wanted his voice to be higher, but found it to be too goofy to be mixed in with the serious tone he was going for. While unnamed in the episode (he was credited as "Padawan"), the official Star Wars website would later identify him as Sha'a Gi.
  • In the Danny Phantom episode "The Million Dollar Ghost," one of the members of Groovy Gang is called a hippy called Andy, acting as an analog of Shaggy. Andy's catchphrase is "Jinkiers" and he owns the group's tiger mascot, Scaredy Cat, who he bribes with Kitty Krunch to get things done.
  • In The Venture Bros. episode of "¡Viva los Muertos!," Sonny is a composite of 1970s serial killer David "Son of Sam" Berkowitz and Shaggy. Sonny believes his dog, Groovy, can talk to him, which makes him look paranoid as Groovy will only talk to him, which may be a result of the prescription pills that his leader, Ted (a parody of Ted Bundy), bribes him with by referring to them as "Groovy treats."
  • In the South Park episode "Hell on Earth 2006," Satan gives himself a Sweet 16 birthday party on Earth, which he dubs "Hell on Earth 2006," where the guests are supposed to dress in costumes, with two attendees dressed like Shaggy and Scooby.
  • In the Gilmore Girls episode "Knit, People, Knit," Rory attends a 2002-themed party, where a poster of the Scooby-Doo film has been put up on a door, with Shaggy and Fred visible.
  • In the Hannah Montana episode "We Are Family - Now Get Me Some Water," Jackson, with no medical background, massages Sean's back, but only makes it worse. His reason for doing it the way he did is that he saw Scooby do it to Shaggy, who are supposed to be his cousins, instead of a cartoon as Sean pointed out.
  • In case four, "Farewell, My Turnabout," in the video game Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All, Wendy Oldbag, dressed in her astronaut suit, surprises Phoenix while he searches in Corrida's room, shouting, "Zoinks! It's the alien!!"
  • In the Yin Yang Yo! episode "Slumber Party of Doooom," characters who look and sound similar to Shaggy and Scooby are watching Yin and Yang dealing with zombies on TV, with Shaggy accusing Yin and Yang are stealing their montages while the zombies chase the twin rabbits, and then a second time when Yang gets the idea from a TV show that he can suck the zombie energy out of them, Shaggy lets out a surprised and angry, "What?!"
  • In the Torchwood book Trace Memory, Owen thought of himself as Fred, but Toshi thought he was more like Shaggy.

  • In the December 1, 2009 episode of Wheel of Fortune, the jackpot round was "Fictional Characters" for $800 with the hidden words forming "Shaggy & Scooby-Doo," guessed correctly by Scott. Host Pat Sajak congratulated him and made an awkward dog sound of "OROOROROROO," which was supposed to be an impression of Scooby.
  • In the Smallville episode "Abandoned," Lois said to Shelby that he was Scooby to Clark's Shaggy.
  • In the Psych episode "In Plain Fright," a haunted house, amusement park, and a comment Lassiter makes about how kids should be scared of the law instead of adults in costumes, after uncovering a dead guy, leads Shawn to argue that they've got "bona fide Scooby-Doo case". This is followed by Shawn wanting Gus to say, "Zoinks," who refuses, but says, "Jinkies," instead. The park's vice president comes in to tell them he knows who murdered the man, to which a satisfied Shawn wants the vice president to tell all the doubters and "Scooby-Don'ts" (referring to Lassiter) of the murderer, who then reveals to him that it was a ghost. Shawn, not having expected to hear that, says, "Zoinks."
  • At the beginning of the sixth episode of Becoming Human, Adam lists Shaggy and Scooby as a great crime-fighting duo due to their chemistry.
  • In the Castle episode "Demons," when Esposito asks Beckett why she let Ryan chase ghosts with Castle, she believes they may be good for each other, stating, "Maybe Shaggy'll keep Scooby out of trouble."
  • In The Cleveland Show episode "Nightmare on Grace Street," Cleveland and Rallo are forced to put an end to their feud by staying in a spooky mansion at night on Halloween. Rallo says it's nice, but Cleveland responded that it "seemed a little Scooby-Doo." He then says "Zoinks" like Shaggy, and jumps on Rallo like Scooby would jump on Scooby, with appropriate sound effects. Rallo then feeds him a dog biscuit, with Cleveland responding in a happy Scooby-like tone.
  • In the The Mentalist episode "Pink Tops," as the Concepcions' daughter is seen watching the TV, audio is heard from the Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated episode "In Fear of the Phantom," specifically when Shaggy is trying to get Scooby to talk to him, otherwise they'll have to find new best friends, which Scooby agrees to.
  • In the So Random! episode "Cole & Dylan Sprouse," Scooby and Shaggy are jailed for 20 years in the "Sally Jensen, Kid Lawyer" sketch, for being irresponsible cartoon role models for a young girl who after losing her bike, stole her neighbor's Great Dane, took her mother's minivan, and fed the dog Scooby Bites the whole time which leads to a "big Scooby doo-doo" in the back seat. While behind bars, Shaggy insists, "Like, zoinks, man, it wasn't our fault the dog couldn't hold it." Jensen, who doesn't believe them, harasses Scooby and Shaggy from the other side and informs them they'll be away for 20 years (140 in dog years), which scares Scooby into Shaggy's arms.
  • In the Plastic Man short "Super Hero Sketch Artist," the old woman describes to Plastic Man that her mugger looked "shaggy," which causes Plastic Man to morph into Shaggy, with an accompanying sound bite of a goofy laugh that sounds like Matthew Lillard's take on the character.
  • In the New Teen Titans short "Turn Back the Clock," Mad Mod turns back time altering the appearances of the Teen Titans with each passing decade, with the 70s making them look like Mystery Inc.; Cyborg is Shaggy, who uses "like" inappropriately in a sentence.
  • In the film Dark Shadows, the vampire called Barnabas Collins watches the Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! episode "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Werewolf" on Victoria's TV during his treatment, calling it a "very silly play." The scene in question is of all the gang being alarmed by their realization of there being a werewolf on the loose.
  • Floyd is a parody of Shaggy in the independent horror film Saturday Morning Massacre (later retitled Saturday Morning Mystery). Floyd is written as a drug user, the owner of a dog called Hamlet (Scooby), and the ex-boyfriend of Nancy (Velma).
  • In the Suburgatory episode "The Witch of East Chatswin," on a Halloween night, Tessa and Lisa dress as Daphne and Velma, respectively, while Malik and Ryan both go as Fred, which causes an argument between the two, with Malik feeling offended that Ryan expects him to go as Shaggy, unless he was expected to go as Scooby. Despite the trouble, Malik does change his costume to Shaggy.
  • Tofu the pony is a parody of Shaggy in My Little Pony: Micro-Series #3, with a similar hairstyle, a goatee, and t-shirt.

  • In the Grojband episode "Dance of the Dead," the band all shouts "Zoinks" after seeing the zombies rise, and Kon jumps into Kin's arms.
  • In the Futurama episode "Saturday Morning Fun Pit," the 31st-century incarnations of Richard Nixon and Spiro Agnew watched a cartoon called Bendee-Boo and the Mystery Crew, in which the Planet Express crew were reimagined as members of Mystery Inc., with Fry taking on the role of Shaggy. There is an inside joke about Shaggy being a stoner when Hermes asks Fry why he always has the munchies, his eyes are bloodshot, he's paranoid, and the van has a "skunky odor." Fry shrugs it off by saying, "Search me." But then follows it through with "No, don't. I'm carrying" and laughs sheepishly. As a fun factoid, Billy West, the voice of Fry, didn't have to go far in finding his inner Shaggy as he was the official voice of Shaggy in the direct-to-video film Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island.
  • In the film Bad Neighbors, two pledges are called Scooby and Shaggy when told to investigate.

Dead Ringers (radio)

  • "Episode Three" (series 1): Shaggy, Scooby, and Velma solve a confusing mystery at a deserted fairground involving a haunting by the Headless Horseman. Velma believed it was old Mr. Jamison, the caretaker, but since he was brutally murdered, she had to rethink who the culprit could be. Mohamed Al-Fayed then shows up and tells them it was Prince Philip and the CIA. "And I would've gotten away with it, too, if it wasn't for those pesky Fayeds." Shaggy uses his signature catchphrase, "Zoinks."
  • "Episode Four" (series 2): When Charlotte Green reveals that Brian Perkins has been ending other BBC Radio 4 shows, he says, "And I would've gotten away with it, too, if it hadn't been for your pesky meddling." Then in another sketch, Alistar Stewart presents a preview of the next Police Crash Bang Wallop (a parody of Police Camera Action!), in which a "brightly covered camper van," is chased by the Headless Horseman on the motorway. Shaggy screams, "Zoinks! Scoob, if Freddy doesn't get us off the M-25, we're doomed!" with a questionable whimper from Scooby.
  • "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 Six" (series 2): Prime Minister Tony Blair hires the kids (Shaggy and Velma with Scooby) to investigate who has been leaking his private memos from his office. Velma deduces that the suspect could be Mo Mowlam, Gordon Brown, Robin Cook, or Alistair Campbell, who all work in his cabinet. But after hearing all the suspects, he writes in his press release that the caretaker disguised as a pirate was trying to scare him away from the gold mine at the disused fairground.
  • "Episode Two" (series 3): Shaggy, Scooby, and Velma capture the Headless Horseman, who they believe to be the old caretaker, Mr. Jamison, but when they unmask the monster it is really Carol Smillie, host of Changing Rooms. Shaggy then thinks he's seen another apparition, but Smilie points out that it is designer Linda Barker. They were making a haunted mansion motif, which included a hidden treasure buried in the basement, and they used the Headless Horseman to scare them away. Having failed, though, Barker complains, "And we'd have got away with it, too, if it wasn't for you really, really pesky kids." Velma asks the two if they were also responsible for the wailing from the Edwardian ghost, but Carol confirms it's just another designer Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen. Shaggy says "Zoinks" three times.
  • "Episode One" (series 5): Shaggy, Velma, and Scooby are investigating the Conservative Campaign Headquarters. Shaggy doesn't like being there because of his hippy lifestyle and their stance on cannabis, which he hides under the fake floorboards of the Mystery Machine. Scooby also partakes in Shaggy's drug use when the former says, "Scooby Scooby stoned." They find Iain Duncan Smith, who Shaggy calls the Hairless Horseman, and remove his ghastly features to discover it is really William Hague, who is out for vengeance against the Tories after not getting elected Prime Minister in the 2001 elections. Hague laments, "And I would've gotten away with it if it wasn't for those pesky voters!"
  • "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, such as Russell Crowe and John Gielgud having 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!" He then wants to celebrate with Scooby, saying, "This, like, calls for Scooby Snacks. Scooby, at my signal, unleash your tongue and wrap it around a very tall sandwich." Scooby just says, "Scooby Scooby Dooby. Scooby Dooby Dooby, Raggy."
  • "Episode Three" (series 7): Velma reads to Shaggy the violations of the new Cartoon Animal Bill of Rights for unnecessary and prolonged exposure to haunted houses, spooky fairgrounds, and white-haired caretakers called Mr. Jameson, as well as health grounds as for the past 30 years, Shaggy has only been feeding Scooby Snacks to Scooby, and mental cruelty for inflicting Scrappy-Doo. Zoinks! Shaggy's been "Scooby Scooby sued!"
  • "Episode Three" (series 9): Shaggy is afraid of their London route in the Mystery Machine, but Velma tries to reassure him it's safe, until they are informed of a £5 congestion fee for entering Central London, which makes Shaggy scream "Zoinks." at this eerie man from the funfair, but Shaggy is corrected on both accounts, as the eerie man is Mayor Livingstone, and the "funfair" is the London Eye. Velma is suspicious it's not Livingstone and his face is really a mask hiding Tony Blair, who was pretending to be Livingstone to make London more unpopular. Defeated, he groans, "And I would've gotten away with it, too, if it wasn't for you pesky young voters." Scooby cheers by saying, "Scooby-Dooby-Doo!"
  • "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. Shaggy gets terrified by Amanda Holden, who he describes as a "creature with a totally expressionless face." 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." Not quite done, Cowell reveals that Scooby being a talking dog is a trick by him, too. Shaggy had never questioned it being always as stoned as he was.
  • "Episode One" (series 17): Sara Montague, of Radio 4's Today, discovers that the Central Conservative Party has sent out Shaggy to speak on behalf of Prime Minister Theresa May, as he sounds slightly less scared than her, which Scooby adds, "Scooby true!"

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. Shaggy simply counters with his patriotic American right to have the freedom to stop bad guys. The lawyer admires Shaggy's ethics, then bribes him to think differently with a box of Scooby Snacks. He also says "Zoinks" once.
  • "Kumal Nanjiani/P!nk:" Kyle Mooney plays Fenster, a parody of Shaggy, in skit called The Hunch Bunch.
  • "Jake Gyllenhaal/Sabrina Carpenter:" In a skit called "Scooby-Doo! and the Mystery of the Shadow Phantom," Mystery Incorporated investigates the Shadow Phantom at a haunted mansion. They catch the ghost and take off the mask to reveal Old Man Franklin underneath, then Fred takes it further by ripping off the man's real face believing that to be fake as well to horrifying results. Chaos then ensues by their reactions, which includes Shaggy losing an arm, Velma losing her head, Fred shooting Daphne, and Scooby shooting Fred. In reality, this is just a commercial for Apple's new Face ID.
