Scooby-Doo Goes Hollywood is indeed a 1979 animated television special featuring the Scooby-Doo gang from Hanna-Saturday Barbera’s morning cartoon series. On December 23, 1979, ABC aired it for the first time. It also is the first Scooby-Doo movie ever made.
Shaggy convinces Scooby that they really deserve much better than just being stars into whatever he considers a low-class Saturday morning show, as well as makes an attempt to throw the ball a number of possible prime-time showcases to network executive “C.J.” in this musical-based parody from both the Scooby-Doo formula as well as Hollywood in general.
Fred, Daphne, Velma, as well as Scooby’s devoted Saturday morning fan base are caught in the middle of this tragedy, and that they all persuade Scooby to return to his Saturday morning TV programme.
Inside the 1980s, Worldvision Enterprises published the special on VHS, and now it is accessible on DVD through Warner Home Video.
Scooby-Doo as well as the rest of the Mystery Inc. team have resolved far too many mysteries as well as gained such a following that they’ll have their own television programme based on their exploits in Hollywood, California. Scooby and Shaggy become weary of performing the same routine after falling into such a catapult while fleeing “The Crabby Creature of Creepy Crag” and decide towards becoming actual movie stars. They present C.J., the president of a network, a pilot movie called How Scooby Won the West, in which Sheriff Scooby and Deputy Shaggy are put through their paces by that of the obnoxious Jesse Rotten. C.J. thinks the movie is a joke as well as laughs as he tosses Shaggy and Scooby out. The crew is sad when they learn Scooby is quitting the programme, and the protest although Shaggy informs them how Scooby would become famous.
They play another movie called Scooby Days at Harold’s Drive-In, in which “the Scoob” encounters “the Groove,” a clear spoof of the Fonz, and C.J. advises that Scooby return to his own programme. Scooby rejects, later attempting to mix with celebs but failing miserably.
Fred reads the article in astonishment in the gang’s dressing room, making them all mourn Scooby and Shaggy and yearn for their return to the programme. Scooby imagines a premiere of his two new films while standing in front of a theatre. He saves a Lois Lane clone from a rocket headed towards Big City in Super Scooby, only to be blown up himself.
Scooby wears a pink dress and twirls on the mountain inside The Sound of Scooby, however as he starts to sing, he slides over a cliff into a creek.
Shaggy returns to the Chinese theatre to learn that the studio is having dog tryouts to fill Scooby’s spot on his programme. He and Scooby walk down to view the results of the tryouts, and the horrible performances make them chuckle. C.J. and the rest of the group have cooked up a ruse to get Scooby back on the programme, and they don’t even realise it. Scooby and Shaggy are shocked when C.J. employs a dog with little aptitude to play Scooby.
