I think what made Scrappy a much more tolerable character later on (note this is based on my memory of stuff I havent seen in years) was he was a contributing member of the trio. He was generally more of a problem solver or at least tried to be. My experience with his earlier incarnation was this loudmouth that went on and on about how tough he or Scooby was, caused far more problems than he ever solved, and is never ever called out on it.

So from what I can tell, people don't really hate Scrappy himself, they hate what Scrappy represents: The old atmosphere and stories being replaced with 1970s-era "lolrandom" humor, and over half the cast being essentially gutted. And since this tonal shift happened almost immediately after Scrappy was introduced, he basically became the focal point of criticism. Which kinda sucks, because his character had a golden opportunity to be a breath of fresh air for the series. But instead, he ended up being the symbol of everything that was wrong with Scooby-Doo at the time. So in other words, Scrappy is the very definition of wasted potential.

[@supermariof0521]

@@supermariof0521 Sure, why not? :D

[@supermariof0521]

@@NegativeDumpster Okay bruh. Buckle up cause its a bit lengthy, but its just a summary of the first act, and how it comes together. TITLE: "Scrappy" STUDIO: Warner Bros. Animation DISTRIBUTOR: Warner Bros. Pictures PLOT: Its business as usual for Mystery Inc, as we see them investigating an abandoned police station and setting up one of Fred's signature traps to lure and unmask their latest monster. Unfortunately for those meddling kids, the monster they were after had other plans and had managed to mysteriously rig the trap to capture Mystery Inc. in an attempt to frame them for the crime the monster itself committed. Soon word gets out that Scooby and the gang are all behind bars and awaiting trial. Now society knows that something shaddy is going on, but anyone who tried to testify on the gang's behalf would be charged with tampering with a law enforcement investigation. If the gang could not be proven innocent within 3 days, they would be behind bars for good. So unfortunately this is one mystery that the gang can't exactly crack, given that their behind bars, and the Mystery Machine has been impounded. At the same time all this went down, we are introduced to our title character for the next 85 minutes, Scooby Doo's hyperactive nephew, Scrappy Doo. Who's currently living at a pizzeria, where his mother, Ruby Doo, works as a waitress dog, delivering pizzas to tables and even helping deliver pizza boxes to-go. Now Scrappy means well, but given his puppy power tendencies, Scrappy longs to be just as great of a mystery solving master as his Uncle Scooby. Unfortunately spending a majority of his time in a pizzeria where little to no bad guys appear, has lead to the pups imagination often getting the better of him, and him accusing most innocent people in the resturaunt of being a possible red herring, leading him to be viewed as an utter annoyance by resturaunt staff. After getting into trouble for the final time, Scrappy gets put in the dog house til he can learn to behave. Despite Ruby trying to reason with Scrappy, and maybe offer a way to channel all that puppy power energy in a way to get it under control, Scrappy laments that not only is he bored of being cooped up in a pizzeria all day, but also how he wants to carry on the same legacy as his Uncle Scooby, and make him proud. He constantly brags about how he supposedly isn't adraid of anything, but weither he wants to admit it or not, there is one fear he does have, that he'll have to come to terms with eventually. That being, the fear of letting his Uncle Scooby down. Scrappy knows that Scooby is as cowardly as he is hungy, but despite being a big fat coward, Scooby Doo manages to pull through and have himself a scooby snack and that's a straight up fact. But the idea of letting his uncle down by being as vulnerable as any other dog is something that Scrappy refuses to let happen at all costs. However things quickly get going when Scrappy sees a news broadcast showcasing that Mystery Inc. is behind bars and how law enforcement seems to be rigging the case to convict those meddling kids. Scrappy of course suspects shaddy practices within law enforcement and the court procedure, and decides he wants to prove the gang innocent. Not because he wants to get some respect, but simply because he knows the Scooby gang are innocent and he refuses to let them be wronged by the law. However he knows that he can't do this on his own, and soon meets a woman named Marcie Fleach (who was originally a recurring character from 2010's "Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated"), who adopted the nickname, "Hot Dog Water". She was also a friend of Mystery Inc, and had been trying to do some undercover detective work to find the culprit who framed Mystery Inc because he/she had a long standaing personal beef with them. After a bit of back and forth, the two decide to team up and head off on a road trip across the state, with Marcie basically playing straight man to Scrappy's "Puppy Power" antics, as they set of to find and unmask the culprit and clear Scooby and the gang's good names.

You raised a good point in that there is some charm to Scrappy with his affection for Scoob. When they tone him down in this upcoming material he's downright inoffensive. 99 episodes of filler fluff...poor soul.

From the sound of things, Scrappy being added to the cast did cause problems upsetting the group dynamic, but more than anything it was the sheer fundamental decline in writing quality from fatigued writers and abandoning of the original premise that only exhausterbated his sudden addition to the show. Kind of makes me wonder what series where he was in but the writers were actually bringing their A-game would have gone.

[@andrejg4136]

However, where I truly appreciated Scrappy's presence was the Scooby/Scrappy movies. Like "Ghoul School" and "Reluctant Werewolf"..

Then everything only got worse and worse. The issue isn't Scrappy-Doo, it's how Scrappy-Doo was handled by the creators going onwards that was the issue.

This is interesting... I believe it's mostly because of his voice in English... Here in Brazil I know no one who hates Scrappy Doo, but from what I've seem, there were major changes from the English version. For example, his name was changed from Scrappy Doo to Scooby Loo, his voice sounded way more childish and didn't sound like an adult man, and when he tried to fight despite his height, they made his voice actor take some inspiration on how a puppy yaps as if they were menacing, which made him quite cute and interesting. I just learned that people from other countries hated him for some reason when I saw so many people talking baddly about him and I simply couldn't understand why. I believe this just shows how having a voice actor who has a voice that matches the character is so important to make them likeable. Edit: also, it seems like most of these episodes which were talked in this video weren't localized.

[@boogityhoo7452]

The thing about the first episode when he is introduced does make sense as to why they just act like hes been part of the gang the whole time.

After I watched a few episodes of The Scooby & Scrappy Doo show I was surprised when I realized Fred, Velma & Daphne were removed from the show I mean I knew there were Scooby-Doo incarnations where they were absent I just wasn't expecting the characters to leave the show during season 1 I thought they were removed in one of the following incarnations of Scooby-Doo that came afterwards. The show from what I've seen started out similar to the status quo of the franchise with them solving mysteries but it took a different direction and instead of them solving mysteries they just kinda get into weird wacky problems the show was fine when the whole gang was there but it feels so weird when they got removed and then randomly added Daphne but not the others. I think the fact that some of the major characters got removed is a large reason why Scrappy get's so much hate I kinda wish WB would give Scrappy another chance. One final note it's strange how Velma, Fred & Daphne were removed from the Scooby & Scrappy show but yet in episodes after their departure they weren't removed from the theme song and can still be seen in it despite not being in the show.

Kinda makes me think a clever thing to do for the shorter one's would be to have varied cat team ups. Like sometimes its Shaggy & Daphne hanging out starting shit, or Fred & Velma ETC.

I think what you said was a fair review. I think it was a little harsh, in regards to 'Scrappy doesn't need to be excited everywhere he goes' considering he IS a puppy and that's just what they do. BUT... I also didn't binge watch 99 episodes either. I've always liked Scrappy as a character, especially because of 13 Ghosts and the Ghoul School, so the hate didn't make sense to me. But, it seems to be a case of writing quality declining and people just blame it on the character as Scrappy showed up around the same time. A pity the franchise is so anti- Scrappy, because honestly with them reinventing the series every few years... Now is the perfect time to try and do their own take of something that feels like the original show, but using Scrappy's dynamic to help add some hilarity with Daphne, Fred, and Velma instead.

Interesting points I've always made, that are overlooked, such as Fred and the girls starting to be downplayed even before Scrappy was added. The addition of Scrappy and the change of format gave it a rest, and allowed them to start over with new ideas. The "Scary Scooby Funnies" were actually seasons 2 and 3 ('80,81), not season 4 ('82). This is what they were rebranded as when they were rebroadcast in '84 along with the new spisodes that season. While very far from the original show, I would say these six do have some elements of the old mystery format: Chinese Food Factory (the only phony ghost unmasked, and one of two crimefighting stories) Moonlight Madness (has the most feel of a mystery) Surprised Spies (the only other crimefighing story) A Fright At the Opera (also has the feel of a mystery) Scooby's Roots (house haunted by a ghost that's unmasked, but still real) South Seas Scare (begins a lot like a mystery)

I know I used to watch a lot of these "Scooby Doo and Scrappy Doo" episodes on Cartoon Network back in the day, but I never realized there were THAT many episodes. Seeing Shaggy and the dogs go on these crazy adventures wasn't too out of left field for me as a kid, but I may need to watch some of these episodes with fresh eyes. Hope you get a lot of rest and that the next Scooby shows will do better for you. Also, if you're looking into the "13 Ghosts" series, just be prepared for disappointment with the finale film's ending.

[@bsabruzzo]

So, I got to the sponsor and I want to put this out there: The reason people don't like Scrappy comes in three groups 1) Don't mess with my Scooby-Doo formula, 2) Poor writing on the show, and 3) Scrappy acts like a puppy and when you make a human-like being act like a puppy they go from funny and cute to annoying and awful. The first is obvious. People like to keep things as close to the same as always. So the least liked shows are often rated as The Many Ghosts of Scooby-Doo, Shaggy and Scooby-Doo Get a Clue and the Scrappy-Doo episodes. The second is self-evident. The third is difficult to understand. Why would we love puppies and watch videos of them, but not like them if they were a human that acted like a puppy. Well, describe a puppy. They follow you around and idolize their older pack leader. They think they can take on any danger. And they won't listen to their human, running after everything until you train them. Scrappy is basically an untrained puppy and Shaggy needs one of those people from the dog training shows. Scrappy idolizes Scooby, but we now can hear him say it in human speech. He is constantly talking, which is barking with words, He is ready to fight and run after everything. I say, if Scrappy were to be written better, people would like him more. But overcoming the first problem is rare and overcoming the third problem changes the character from a puppy to an older dog, which might not be too bad except a dog that's a little older but still a puppy would look too much like an adult. It would take really good writing and some suspension of disbelief to make Scrappy work.

It's fairly common for female cartoon animals to have more exaggerated human proportions/behaviors than their male counter parts. Lola Bunny comes to mind. They also tend to act more human like too. There's an episode of Looney Toons where Buggs was confused for a baby gorilla (it's just as weird in context) by a pair of wild gorillas. The mother gorilla wore a tutu and bow on her head, constantly walked upright like a human, and nagged at her husband in long strings of gibberish. In contrast, the father had no clothing, constantly walked like a real gorilla would, and growled like an animal most of the time. The more you know!
