The Scooby-Doo Show is an American animated mystery comedy series. The title of the series is an umbrella term for episodes of the third incarnation of Hanna-Barbera's Scooby-Doo franchise. A total of 40 episodes ran for three seasons, from 1976 to 1978, on ABC, marking the first Scooby Doo series to appear on the channel. Sixteen episodes aired as segments of The Scooby-Doo/Dynomutt Hour in 1976, while eight aired as part of Scooby's All-Star Laff-A-Lympics in 1977. A final set of sixteen episodes came out in 1978, with ten running individually under the Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! name and the remaining six as segments of Scooby's All-Stars.
Despite the yearly changes in how they were broadcast, the 1976–1978 stretch of Scooby-Doo episodes represents, at three seasons, the longest-running format of the original show before the addition of Scrappy-Doo. The episodes from all of the three seasons have been rerun under the title The Scooby-Doo Show since 1980; these Scooby episodes did not originally air under this title. The credits on these syndicated versions all feature a 1976 copyright date, even though seasons two and three were originally produced in 1977 and 1978.
Outside the United States, reruns aired on CBBC in the United Kingdom until 2015. Like many animated series created by Hanna-Barbera in the 1970s, the show contained a laugh track created by the studio.
Overview
Scooby-Doo creators Joe Ruby and Ken Spears, started working at ABC for Fred Silverman as production supervisors for the Saturday morning lineup, they were both involved in the development and production of the 1976–1977 and the 1977–1978 episodes (in 1977, they formed their animation studio, Ruby-Spears Productions, as a competitor to Hanna-Barbera).[1]

Home media
The first season was released on DVD by Warner Home Video (via Hanna-Barbera and Warner Bros. Family Entertainment) with the Dynomutt episodes they originally aired with as The Scooby-Doo/Dynomutt Hour: The Complete Series on March 7, 2006. The second season has not been released in a set, but some episodes have appeared on DVD. This leaves only four of the eight episodes in season two that ran as part of Scooby's All-Star Laff-a-Lympics as the only episodes that have not yet been released on DVD from this 40-episode incarnation. The third season was released on DVD as Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! - The Complete Third Season from Warner Home Video, H-B Cartoons, and WBFE on April 10, 2007.[2] Although, only ten of those originally aired under the title Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! in their initial run, and none of the third season was presented under the Where are You! title for 28 years following their broadcast debuts (the cartoons on the DVD set still feature the syndicated Scooby-Doo Show opening and closing credits).[3]
All 40 Scooby-Doo Show episodes are available for purchase and download from the iTunes Store and Amazon, as either individual episodes or a season set. The first two seasons are grouped under The Scooby-Doo Show, while the third season is listed under Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!
