Do you have any fun trivia about Scooby Doo? I don't know if that's in your usual fare but I'm not a big TV head. If you don't, feel free to share anything else that interests you about any other show - I know that's excessively broad, but I just like your normal posts too!

I mentioned this one in my Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo write-up already but it's too good not to repeat.

When they were first creating the character of Scrappy-Doo they had several voice actors try out for the part, including some that were already in the cast of Scooby-Doo. One of the auditioned actors was Frank Welker, who had been Fred since the start of the franchise and has since taken over the role of Scooby himself. He didn't end up getting the role of Scrappy, but during his audition he improvised the catchphrase "Ta-da-da-ta ta-ta! Puppy power!" The studio, Hanna-Barbera, already had a good track record with improvised catchphrases, as Fred Flinstone's "Yabba-dabba-doo" had a similar origin story, so they kept the catchphrase even though they ended up giving Lennie Weinrib the role of Scrappy.

It's a very minor addition to the story but I also loved learning of Frank Welker's role in Saturday Supercade, a cartoon adaptation of various video games. In that show he played Donkey Kong Junior, whose catchphrase "Monkey muscle!" is said in exactly the same way as "Puppy power!", so he's ended up ripping off a catchphrase that he came up with in the first place!

Let's make a fun fictional character!

1- pick your favorite credit card and post the digits. That's their cyberpunk dystopia name (Visa or Mastercard is the middle name)
2- the 3 digits on the back are its pets name
3- your mother's maiden name is the family name
4- the street you lived on at 8 is their mom's first name
5- the name of your highschool best friend is the name of their goldfish

Can't wait to see more OCs around here! πŸ€—
