What’s New Scooby-Doo?, maked its Cartoon Network debut on Friday, March 28, 2003, on Cartoon Network, after an extensive run on the KidsWB Network. The series finally brought those “meddling kids” of Mystery, Inc. to the 21^st Century.  Everyone’s favorite Great Dane and his intrepid cohorts – Shaggy, Velma, Daphne and Fred – stumble upon a new batch of creature-related mysteries in these prime time comic adventures.

     Traveling to exotic locales, the gang finds themselves knee-deep in a whole new slew of capers, cases and creepy crime scenes.  This time, they are aided by an arsenal of Internet-age gizmos and gadgets — from laptop computers and PDAs to mobile communicators and GPS systems.  Now ghouls and goons face a tougher time than ever trying to get away with their ghastly goings-on. 

     Fred, the leader of the group, updates his wardrobe with an open-collared shirt and sweater in place of his classic orange ascot.  Bespectacled Velma remains the brains behind the operation while Daphne brings her unique style and flair to the cases.  Shaggy’s huge appetite and skepticism keeps the mood light and occasionally helps solve a case.  Finally, Scooby-Doo adds his unerring canine instinct to spot trouble…and run in the opposite direction.

     “Scooby-Doo has been a staple of Cartoon Network’s programming for many years, and we think the return of this pooch will add new punch to our prime time lineup,” said Jim Samples, executive vice president and general manager of Cartoon Network.  “What’s New Scooby-Doo? is a fresh and fun series that will please cartoon fans young and old.” 

     The all-new animated series stays true to the classic elements that have made Scooby a beloved animated icon for more than 30 years, while amping up the mystery, suspense and comedy.  What's New Scooby-Doo? includes all-new romp tunes along with a suspenseful music track providing a distinctive backdrop to the sleuthing adventures.  What's New Scooby-Doo? is produced by Warner Bros. Animation under the creative supervision of producers Chuck Sheetz, Ed Scharlach, Jim Krieg and George Doty IV.

     What's New Scooby Doo? is currently in its second season and airing on both Kids WB and Cartoon Network.
