Scooby Doo – Which character had the best catchphrase?
Scooby Doo has been around for decades and during that time we have all had the opportunity to meet the characters and their most common phrases. But of all the Scooby-Doo characters, who had the best catchphrase? Here they are in order from best to best, and the reasons why they ranked where they did.
6. Bosses! – Daphne
Really? Is that all you have to say Daphne? Her character used to be portrayed as the most vulnerable, often being captured or finding herself in some kind of trouble. In keeping with the fact that her character contributed very little to solving mysteries, her catchphrase contributed almost nothing to any conversation.
5. Let’s split up, gang… – Fred
Well, if nothing else the guy had a plan. Divide and conquer, right? It is true that he used this plan over and over again and it usually resulted in the capture of one or more members of the gang. But it is definitely more interesting than the “jeepers!” and it was at least an attempt to try to achieve something.
4. My glasses! -Velma
Poor Velma. The poor girl was constantly having her glasses fall off her face, leaving her fumbling in the dark in a desperate attempt to find them. Of course, this used to happen at the worst possible time. But super-intelligent Velma always had so much more to contribute than clumsy Fred and Daphne, so even when she suddenly went blind, she was more interesting than those two.
3. Scooby-Doo, where are you? -Woolly
Somehow Shaggy and Scooby, the two characters least interested in solving scary mysteries, constantly ended up in the middle of things. And when the villains got closer, it was inevitable that those two would end up losing each other. “Scooby Doo Where Are You?” usually met with a shaky response from a frightened Scooby, “here!” This memorable catchphrase conjures up vivid images of a very frightened Shaggy and Scooby.
2. I would have gotten away with it too, if it wasn’t for you nosy kids. – villain
This phrase is not attributed to a particular character, but it was frequently used and frequently quoted. It has become part of pop culture as a great catchphrase in general, not just among Scooby Doo fans. You will most likely hear this statement just as the mask the villain had been wearing has been removed to reveal who the real culprit was.
1. Scooby-Dooby-Doo! – Scooby Doo
Yes, the star character had the best catchphrase, which is very appropriate. Scooby was a loyal friend, even if he was a bit of a coward. At the end of the day, he could always be counted on to yell “Scooby-Dooby-Doo!” to mark the end of a successfully solved mystery.
