Scooby Doo was my favorite cartoon as a child. I was obsessed with it. I ranked all the episodes, figured out the syndicated order they were shown, and would look forward to it every day after school. I was crushed the day they replaced it with another show and called the TV station to complain (to no avail). Most of those classics I had not seen for many years, but with my two kids I've seen all of the re-broadcast on Cartoon Network. Updating my old childhood rankings of best Scooby Doo villains seemed like an excellent choice for my first blog ranking! Naturally, any Scooby shows post 1978 (i.e. Scrappy) are sub-par and will not be considered.
