The third season of Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! consists of 16 episodes that originally aired on ABC from September 9, 1978, to December 23, 1978
. This season is distinct from the first two seasons, which aired in 1969 and 1970 on CBS. The third season was produced nearly a decade later and is often considered different in tone and style compared to the original two seasons
. Notably, the third season episodes were originally part of The Scooby-Doo Show and were later rebranded as season 3 of Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! for DVD releases and syndication. This rebranding has caused some confusion, as many fans regard only the first two seasons as the "true" Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! series
. Some episode titles from season 3 include:
- "Watch Out! The Willawaw!"
- "Creepy Tangle in the Bermuda Triangle"
- "A Scary Night with a Snow Beast Fright"
- "To Switch a Witch"
- "The Tar Monster"
- "Jeepers, It's the Jaguaro"
- "The Creepy Creature of Vulture's Claw"
- "The Diabolical Disc Demon"
- "The Warlock of Wimbledon"
Season 3 is available for purchase on platforms like Prime Video and DVD, and it has been aired in various syndication blocks, but it was not originally aired on Cartoon Network as part of the classic lineup
. In summary, Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! season 3 aired in 1978 on ABC, is actually episodes from The Scooby-Doo Show rebranded, and differs in style from the original 1969-70 seasons
