The Richie Rich/Scooby-Doo Show is a 60-minute Saturday morning animated package show produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions and broadcast on ABC from November 8, 1980, to November 7, 1981. The program contained segments of Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo and Richie Rich . [1] The Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo shorts represents the sixth show in which Scooby-Doo appears. [2] This was the only Hanna-Barbera package series for which Scooby-Doo was given second billing and was also notable for Richie Rich's debut in animation. [3]
