What happens

A Pup Named Scooby-Doo is an American animated mystery comedy television series produced by Hanna-Barbera. It is the eighth incarnation of the studio's Scooby-Doo franchise and depicts younger versions of the title character and his companions as they solve mysteries, similar to the original television series. The series was developed by Tom Ruegger and premiered on September 10, 1988, airing for four seasons on ABC and during the syndicated block The Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera until August 17, 1991. Along with most of Hanna-Barbera's production staff, Ruegger departed from the studio after the first season to create Tiny Toon Adventures for Warner Bros. Animation, and Don Lusk, a longtime animator for the Disney and Bill Melendez animation studios, took over as director. A Pup Named Scooby-Doo is the final television series in the franchise in which Don Messick portrayed Scooby-Doo before his death in 1997 and the first in which Fred Jones is voiced by someone other than Frank Welker, as the character was voiced by Carl Steven, though Welker voiced other characters in the show. Messick and Casey Kasem, who voiced Shaggy Rogers, were the only original voice actors from prior Scooby-Doo productions to reprise their roles, and both received starring credits for their work.
