Don't worry, we're here to help you navigate the wonderfully wacky world of Scooby snacks and mystery-solving, all in order! Buckle up, because we're diving deep!
The OG Crew: Where It All Began
First up, we have the granddaddy of them all: Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! (1969-1970). This is where it all started! Think groovy tunes, ridiculously obvious clues, and monsters that were clearly just Old Man Withers in a rubber mask.
Must Read
Then, we have The New Scooby-Doo Movies (1972-1973). Each episode featured a different celebrity guest star. Batman and Robin even showed up once! Can you imagine Scooby and Shaggy teaming up with the Dark Knight?
Next, The Scooby-Doo Show (1976-1978) kept the momentum going. More mysteries, more Scooby Snacks, more Shaggy saying "Zoinks!" It's a classic for a reason!
Branching Out: New Characters, New Styles
Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo (1979-1980) introduced us to Scooby's pint-sized, overly enthusiastic nephew, Scrappy-Doo. Some loved him, some...well, let's just say he was a bit much for some of us.
The New Scooby and Scrappy-Doo Show (1983-1984) and The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo (1985) continued the adventures, with the latter featuring a more serialized format. They accidently unleashed 13 powerful ghosts, and now had to recapture them all!
Modern Mysteries: Back to Basics (Mostly)
A Pup Named Scooby-Doo (1988-1991) took us back to the gang's childhood. Velma was still the brains, Fred still loved traps, and Shaggy and Scooby were still hungry. It was adorable and hilarious!

Then came a string of direct-to-video movies. Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island (1998) is often cited as a fan favorite. It marked a return to the darker, more supernatural elements that some felt were missing.
This movie kicked off a golden age of Scooby-Doo movies! Think Scooby-Doo! and the Witch's Ghost, Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders, and so on. The gang traveled the world, encountering everything from sea monsters to cyber villains.
The 21st Century Scooby
What's New, Scooby-Doo? (2002-2006) brought the gang back to TV with updated animation and catchy theme songs. Simple Plan singing the theme song? Yes, please!
Shaggy & Scooby-Doo Get a Clue! (2006-2008) gave Shaggy superpowers! This one was definitely different, with a more comedic and over-the-top style.
Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated (2010-2013) is considered by many to be the best Scooby-Doo series in recent years. It featured a darker, more complex storyline with serialized elements and character development.
Be Cool, Scooby-Doo! (2015-2018) went for a more comedic and stylized approach, with a focus on the gang's friendships and quirky personalities.
Most recently, we have Scooby-Doo and Guess Who? (2019-2021). Celebrities are back and teaming up with Mystery Inc. to solve mysteries.
Don't forget the live-action movies like Scooby-Doo (2002) and Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed (2004)! They might not be everyone's cup of tea, but they're definitely memorable.
So there you have it, a whirlwind tour through the Scooby-Doo universe. Now go forth, binge-watch, and remember: the real monsters are the ones we create... or maybe just Old Man Withers in a rubber mask. And remember, the most important thing is to have fun!
