Production

Be Cool, Scooby-Doo! was announced in March 2014, along with other reboots of Warner Bros. classics, such as The Tom and Jerry Show and Wabbit.^[10]Sam Register, promoted to president of Warner Bros. Animation and Warner Digital Series a month prior, is its supervising producer.^[11] The animation direction is performed by Shaunt Nigoghossian,^[12] with Richard Lee overseeing art direction.^[13] Episodes run for a half-hour.^[9]

The twelfth series in the Scooby-Doo franchise, the show was previewed in an article from a Comic-Con edition of TV Guide,^[14] writing that it would be less dark than its previous incarnation, Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated. Zac Moncrief, a producer, called it "a more comedic ensemble", with character traits extracted from the original 1969 series. This decision nulled the romantic subplots present in Mystery Incorporated. Scooby-Doo has limited dialogue. Meanwhile, Fred has upgraded the Mystery Machine with modern appliances.^[15]

In addition, the series employs redesigned character models for the gang, retaining their original clothes, with a few design tweaks. Moncrief described this as a "simplistic, edgy design to match the comedic styling of this latest version." However, he denied it as "a campy or meta version" of Scooby-Doo.^[15]

This marks the first Scooby-Doo television series not to feature Casey Kasem in any capacity; Kasem, who voiced Shaggy from 1969 to 2009, retired from voice acting due to declining health during the production of Mystery Incorporated (in which he portrayed Shaggy's father) and died on June 15, 2014. Kasem's death leaves Frank Welker as the only surviving original cast member still with the franchise. It is also the first series since A Pup Named Scooby-Doo where Velma is voiced by an actress other than Mindy Cohn, marking the debut of Kate Micucci as the character's voice actress.

Broadcast

Be Cool, Scooby-Doo! made its worldwide debut on October 4, 2015, on Boomerang in the United Kingdom and Ireland^[16][17] and premiered on Teletoon in Canada on October 8.^[18] The series premiered on Boomerang in Australia on December 28.^[19] The series also aired in 2019 on e.tv.
