A storyboard for "Chefs of Steel" shows that Get a Clue may have originally had the series title a bit switched around at one point in production, as Scooby-Doo and Shaggy Get a Clue. Thanks ScoobyDooUK for suggesting this fun fact idea!

It doesn't have the same ring to it as the one they ended up with. But I can totally see how this would've been the initial title, as it's a bit odd and counterintuitive to put anyone other than Scooby in the title before him at first glance. However they would've later noticed it sounds better the other way around and so they ultimately landed on Shaggy before Scooby.

From a brand recognition standpoint, I can definitely see why they would put Scooby first since he's the star of the franchise, so it wouldn't make sense to default to putting Shaggy first. However, yeah, it doesn't really flow very nicely as a title. It sounds kinda clunky, especially if you think about how the theme song would have sounded if they switched it around.

This is interesting and I didn’t know this before. Also, this isn’t related but:when will Velma season 2 be released? Season 1 was garbage but I am just wondering when you guess it will be released? I only want to know because it is the only Scooby show we have right now. My guess is it will be released in September or October but I could be wrong.

I would say probably September or October at the earliest, but more likely probably early next year would be my guess. Season 2 is in development but hasn't been officially renewed yet, so I imagine we'll get an official announcement a few months before it comes out.

MAYBE if it was Scooby and Shaggy Get a Clue, but adding the Doo in there makes it really clunky. What we got was a good change I would say

Agreed, even "Scooby and Shaggy" sounds a tad bit clunky, tbh.

I think it sounds clunkier because SD/Shaggy are mostly referred to as 'Shaggy and Scooby' throughout the franchise anyway, so it feels more natural to say.

Hey, WWV, where did you get this from?

ScoobyDooUK bought it in an online auction. The link was taken down after the auction concluded, hence why I didn't put it here, but I did see the original link about a week before I posted it, so I can confirm it's legitimate.
