Scooby-Doo Turns 50!
While this may be “Friday the 13th,” it also happens to be the 50th birthday of Scooby-Doo! Doesn’t that make you feel old?
Happy birthday, Scooby Doo!
If you want to enjoy a couple of articles that discuss the origins of the show, you can find them here “History of the Scooby-Doo Series” and here “A Behind the Scenes Look at the 50th Anniversary of Scooby-Doo”.
Meanwhile, you can enjoy a couple of videos for those who have nostalgia for Scooby-Doo!
The first is the theme song from the cartoon. Sing along with me:
While waiting for the next video, buy these delicious Scooby-Snacks!
This video attempts to stuff 22 minutes of an episode into a one-minute mystery.
And finally, did you know some of the famous people who were the voices behind the characters? Casey Kasem as Shaggy?

Oh, that’s hilarious. I had no idea we could actually buy the snacks!
