Cartoon Network Friday Spotlight: Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo- “Twenty Thousand Screams Under the Sea”
Tumblr media
Scrappy-Doo remains among the most controversial additions to the Scooby-Doo franchise... Mindy Kaling’s take on Velma notwithstanding. 
If you ask the crew who worked on the franchise or Hanna-Barbera at the time, they’ll either call Scrappy the savior of the franchise or a necessary evil to keep it afloat. The fact is that ABC, who had given Scooby’s previous shows a home, were looking to not bring back the studio’s biggest cash cow of the 70′s unless some changes were made, and adding in a tough-minded nephew seemed to have done the trick, keeping Scooby around well into the 80′s. From what I can gather, kids at the time liked Scrappy, but when older fans who returned to the franchise during Cartoon Network’s heyday in the 90′s and early 2000′s got a hold of his material, he wasn’t very well received, and thus became the butt of many a joke since.
Scrappy... kind of deserves it, although not every project he was in stunk. I think that his first series was a tolerable continuation of the monster of the week format, even though he was one monster hunter too many, and he does get annoying. I have less defense for the run where it’s just him, Scooby, and Shaggy, though.
Here’s a decent episode from that first series, where the gang is resting in the beaches of Acapulco as they intend to watch a cliff diving competiton. The star diver, Tiger Morris is late, and from there the beach city is haunted by a sea beast. Who has to solve it? Three guesses, and the first two don’t count.
I generally prefer this when Scrappy isn’t a big part of it, as Lennie Weinrib’s strong New York voice grows old fast. I actually prefer Don Messick’s later take on the character, but it has its moments, and cool atmosphere with the dark sea before a reveal that makes sense.

With the conclusion of HBOMax's Velma, I want you all to line up and APOLOGIZE to Scrappy Doo
Tumblr media
For the past 30 years you've called him the worst Scooby Doo character, and now there's an ENTIRE SERIES worth of worse ones. You tell him you're sorry.

With every new unfortunate thing we learn about the new Velma series and the war crimes it does against the original characters, my partner actually pulled out his phone to look up this guy he absolutely abhors, and said in the most melancholic voice I've ever heard him use-
"Perhaps we've treated you too harshly."
Tumblr media
I may agree with him.

theres never a time where the Scooby Gang hating on Scrappy will make sense, i feel. like think about it. in-universe, what did Scrappy ever do to make them hate him that isnt what he already did when they used to like him?
literally all the jokes in modern Scooby Doo where the entire gang is like "oh we don't talk about Scrappy ¬¬" feel so meanspirited for something that just literally does not make any sense.
the ONE TIME Scrappy did something evil was because James Gunn hated him for no reason other than "he was written into the show at a time where the writing was less good", and it was in a movie that isnt even canon to the cartoons, so even that cant be a reason for the characters to hate him.
like i dunno, i might not care about Scrappy himself that much (i dont dislike him either) but what i do care about, is that the characters are basically mandated to never ever bring up a part of the series' history unless its to shit on it for absolutely no reason and act OUT OF CHARACTER at that to be mean to a character that is literally a CHILD, where the writers could instead like, write Scrappy better? the writers could bring Scrappy back and make him better as a character instead of just ragging on his existence every time they get to even aknowledge he existed.
like they brought back Flimflam, a character from a show Scrappy existed in, and a character most people also agreed SUCKED in that show and was just as if not more annoying than Scrappy.... yeeeet Flimflam was written better there, and people really liked him in that movie. and yet still, the only time they mention Scrappy in that movie is like "Hey, where's Scrappy?" and everyone answering "Who's Scrappy??" like COME ON, you FIXED FLIMFLAM and couldnt bother doing the same with the one most overhated character? so overhated, the trope that means "character everbody hates" is called THE SCRAPPY.
like come on, isnt that exaggerated levels of hate??? am i wrong on thinking this??
