The All-New Scooby and Scrappy-Doo Show (also known as simply The New Scooby and Scrappy-Doo Show) is the sixth incarnation of the long-running Hanna-Barbera Saturday morning cartoon Scooby-Doo. It premiered on September 10, 1983 and ran for one season on ABC as a half-hour program made up of two eleven-minute short cartoons. In 1984, the name of the show was changed to The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries, with the actual show format remaining the same. The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries ran for another season on ABC.
Thirteen half-hour episodes, composed of twenty-six 11-minute episodes (two of which were double-part episodes) were produced under the New Scooby and Scrappy-Doo title in 1983., and thirteen more episodes, composed of twenty-six 11-minute episodes (six of which were double-part episodes) were produced under the The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries name in 1984.

[edit] Overview
For this incarnation of the show, Hanna-Barbera attempted to combine the most successful elements of both the original Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! format and the newer Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo format. Daphne Blake, a character from the original Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! format, was added back to the cast after a four-year absence. The plots of each episode feature her, Shaggy Rogers, Scooby-Doo, and Scrappy-Doo solved supernatural mysteries under the cover of being reporters for a teen magazine. Each half-hour program was made up of two 11-minute episodes, which would upon occasion be two parts of one half-hour long episode.
The second season of this format, broadcast as The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries in 1984, continued the same format, and, as an added bonus, included six two-part episodes featuring original Scooby-Doo characters Fred Jones and Velma Dinkley, both absent from the series for five years. It is worth noting that in the episode "Happy Birthday Scooby-Doo", Fred Jones is incorrectly identified as Fred Rogers; Rogers is Shaggy's surname. The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries theme song is performed in the style of Thriller-era Michael Jackson. The accompanying opening credits feature shots of a row of monsters dancing like the zombies in Jackson's Thriller music video.
