The Scooby & Scrappy-Doo/Puppy Hour The Scooby & Scrappy-Doo/Puppy Hour The Scooby & Scrappy-Doo/Puppy Hour is a 60-minute Saturday morning animated package show co-produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions and Ruby-Spears Enterprises and broadcast on ABC from September 25, 1982 to December 18, 1982. The show contained segments of "Scooby-Doo & Scrappy-Doo" (Hanna-Barbera), "Scrappy & Yabba-Doo" (Hanna-Barbera) and "The Puppy's New Adventures" (Ruby-Spears). The first half-hour consisted of a 7-minute "Scrappy & Yabba-Doo" episode placed between two 7-minute "Scooby-Doo & Scrappy-Doo" episodes followed by a 30-minute episode of "The Puppy's New Adventures" in the second half-hour. The Scooby/Scrappy-related shorts were written, storyboarded and voiced at Hanna-Barbera, but
Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! plans to create a non-violent Saturday morning program that would appease the parent watch groups that had protested the superhero-based programs of the mid-1960s. Originally titled "Mysteries Five", and later "Who's S-S-Scared?", "Scooby Doo, Where Are You!" underwent a number of changes from script to screen (the most significant being the downplaying of the musical group angle borrowed from "The Archie Show"). However, the basic concept—four teenagers (Fred, Daphne, Velma, and Shaggy) and a cowardly, clumsy Great Dane (Scooby-Doo) solving supernatural-related mysteries—was always in place. "Scooby-Doo" creators Joe Ruby and Ken Spears served as the story supervisors on the series.
