Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated is an American-British animated supernatural comedy television series created by Tony Cervone, Spike Brandt, and Mitch Watson. It was produced by Warner Bros. Animation for Cartoon Network. It ran from 2010 to 2013, airing 52 episodes that spanned two seasons. It is the eleventh Scooby-Doo series after Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!
More mature than other Scooby-Doo series, Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated tells the tale of Mystery Incorporated unraveling a 20-year-old mystery involving the disappearances of teenagers much like themselves. The closer they get to discovering what led to their disappearances, the more dangerous the investigation becomes, as solving this mystery isn't about exposing the shady dealings of a real estate agent, but a supernatural presence hidden beneath their hometown of Crystal Cove long ago.
Production
Development
The series may never have been given a chance if it weren't for the fact that Warner Bros. Animation and Cartoon Network weren't able to secure the rights with Amblin in developing a cartoon series based on the 1985 film The Goonies from which Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated is a retooling of.
Music
The theme song was written and performed by Matthew Sweet. The music was composed by Robert J. Kral, and was edited by Christine Luethje.

In popular culture
- 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.
- The name of the Ben 10: Omniverse episode "Mystery, Incorporeal," which has several references to the franchise in general.
- In the Ben 10 reboot episode "Scared Silly," Happy Harbor was known as the most haunted town on the East Coast, an allusion to Crystal Cove being known as the most haunted place on Earth.
- At the end of the episode of the Supernatural episode "Scoobynatural," it is revealed that the pawn shop in which Jay is arrested is situated in Crystal Cove.
- The Young Justice episode "First Impression" has several tributes, which include Brooklyn, Maine being known for its summer tourism the same as Crystal Cove being known for its haunted tourism, while Sheriff Maguire and Mayor Thomas Tompkins resemble (and the former also sounding like) Sheriff Stone and Mayor Jones, with Mayor Tompkins having a similar relationship with his daughter, Tommi, for snooping where she doesn't belong, as well as sharing a first name, mirroring Mayor Jones and Fred. Also, common to this series, along with other series, is when Intergang is caught when pretending to be aliens, member Whisper utters the line, "And we would've scored big time, if you heroes hadn't gotten in our way!"
