Today’s V/A focus is Casey Kasem. He started out as a cartoon voice artist during the 60’s and 70’s. His most famous voice was Shaggy from the Scooby-Doo series. Then later, Casey became a famous radio DJ for shows like American Top 40 Countdown, but still sometimes voices Shaggy when a new Scooby-Doo movie or special comes out. “ZOINKS!"

Here’s a fact. Casey Kasem is a strict vegetarian and he suggested that they make Shaggy a vegetarian as well.

THE FLINTSTONES MEET ROCKULA AND FRANKENSTONE: Monty Marble

Yet another title you've mentioned that I remember seeing, and I'm sure I've got that on tape somewhere as well.

Here’s a fact. Casey Kasem is a strict vegetarian and he suggested that they make Shaggy a vegetarian as well.

Too bad that didn't work out, Shaggy eats anything that isn't locked up.

 

[Ilikemuppets]

Great that he's still dong Shaggy after all theses years!

 

[The Count]

Hmmm... One of the ones I haven't seen is Scooby Doo in Where's My Mummy? There are a few SD movies that were left out, probably because the voice actor for Shaggy was changed like The Witch's Ghost. Not sure if it was another actor voicing Shaggy in Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island, that's the rarest one of the new movies, Cartoon Network hasn't aired that one in a long while. SD and Cleopatra's Curse or The Curse of Cleopatra is also absent from your list. Don't really remember who/what Flakey Flakem was from Tiny Toons. I'm sad to know that there's a direct link between the classic Scooby Doo and that drech of Get a Clue.

Since this was basically a Scooby Doo review, there's something I've always wanted to know/ask. You know the ending of Ghoul School when the new students for next year are lined up? Who/what students were present in that final shot?

Hope to hear from you soon buddy, good job on another V/A X-Man.

I remember when I was younger. One of my favorite shows was "A Pup Named Scooby-Doo*, and I had a crush on Shaggy then. It went as far as me dreaming that I married him... Poor kid.

Here's a small and useless fact. I share the same birthday as Casey. April 27th.

I love that show! That is the only Scooby show I am a fan of. That and the weird one when it's just Scooby, Shaggy and Scrappy runny away from what appear to be real ghosts and crazy minsters and thing like that, lol!

Thank you.

And to answer your questions. I tried looking up the SD and the Curse of Cleopatra and I found it nowhere on Wikipedia or the Internet Movie Database. I believe it was actually just a book.

And there were times Casey wasn't available to voice Shaggy so in Scooby Doo on Zombie Island, Billy West voiced Shaggy. And those other Scooby Doo movies I didn't mention, Scott Innes had voiced Shaggy along with Scooby Doo.

And in Shaggy and Scooby Doo, Get a Clue, Scott Menville ended up voicing Shaggy while Casey voiced Uncle Albert for some reason.

And I don't remember the ending monsters in The Ghoul School. I'll have to watch it the next time it airs.

Wow, very cool! I've always been interested in Casey's vocal talents, and he's done a lot more different voices than I realized!

Another great focus, Xerus, and awesome fact about Casey wanting Shaggy to be a vegetarian, too, hehe. I think it's great that it was so important to him that he gave it a shot!

Thank you. Yes, Casey was famous for voicing teenagers back in the 60's and 70's. In Scooby Doo Meets Josie and the Pussycats, I did notice that Shaggy and Alexander had the same exact voices.
