SCOOBY DOOBY DOO WHERE ARE U Pictures, Images and Photos
Scooby-Doo is a long-running American animated series produced for Saturday morning television in several different versions from 1969 to the present. The original series, Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, was created for Hanna-Barbera Productions by writers Joe Ruby and Ken Spears, CBS executive Fred Silverman, and character designer Iwao Takamoto. Hanna-Barbara produced numerous spin-offs and related works until being absorbed in 1997 into Warner Bros. Animation, which has handled production since then. Although the format of the show and the cast (and ages) of characters have varied significantly over the years, the most familiar versions of the show feature a talking dog named Scooby-Doo and four twenty-five-year-olds: Fred "Freddie" Jones, Daphne Blake, Velma Dinkley, and Norville "Shaggy" Rogers. Shaggy’s voice is provided by Top 40 DJ Casey Kasem. Scooby’s speech patterns closely resembled an earlier cartoon dog, Astro from The Jetsons. These five characters (officially collectively known as "Mystery, Inc.", but never referred to as such in the original series) drive around in the Mystery Machine van (a kind of a psychedelic Deadhead mobile), solving mysteries by exposing seemingly otherworldly ghosts and monsters as flesh and blood crooks, with the young investigators discovering that the criminal had used costumes, latex masks and special effects to frighten or deceive witnesses. That puts the series squarely in the old tradition of the "impossible crime" mystery (made famous by such writers as John Dickson Carr). Later versions of Scooby-Doo featured different variations on the show's supernatural theme, and include characters such as Scooby's cousin Scooby-Dum and nephew Scrappy-Doo in addition to or instead of some of the original characters. Scooby-Doo was originally broadcast on CBS from 1969 to 1976, when it moved to ABC. ABC aired the show until canceling it in 1986, and presented a spin-off, A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, from 1988 until 1991, which featured the characters as children. The WB Network's Kids' WB programming block, later created an updated version of the series called What's New Scooby Doo? which ran from 2002 to 2006. The most recent Scooby-Doo series, Shaggy & Scooby-Doo Get a Clue!, ran from 2006 to 2008 on The CW network. Repeats of the series are broadcast frequently on the Cartoon Network and Boomerang in the United States and other countries.

The cache container is a micro, but larger than a 35mm and contains a log only so BYOP. Please replace the container as found so as to protect the integrity of the find for the next cachers to come along.
