Synopsis:

 


 
Following the successful run of Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, The New Scooby-Doo Movies was the first of many reincarnations of the lovable talking hound. To boost the already increasing popularity of the series, each episode of The New Scooby-Doo Movies featured a guest star, ranging from celebrities like Sonny and Cher and Monkees frontman Davy Jones to characters from other Hanna-Barbara cartoons like Josie and the Pussycats and Speed Buggy. The show's format stayed basically the same, the most notable change being the length of each episode extended from thirty minutes to a full hour. Scooby and the gang still found themselves foiling the schemes of bad guys in rubber suits and masks, but this time around the guest stars would help out and were another source of comedic inspiration. The new series ran for two original seasons on CBS, and had a long life in syndication.

There has been a lot of confusion surrounding the official titles of the episodes, due to the fact that no on-screen titles were given for this series. Instead of a credit that would read: "Wednesday Is Missing," a still picture was displayed with narration by Casey Kasem stating: "Today Scooby-Doo meets The Addams Family." This was particularly confusing with characters like the Harlem Globetrotters and Batman who appeared multiple times. Episodes with guests that appeared only once were commonly referred to as "Scooby-Doo Meets . . ."
