=== ''The New Scooby-Doo Movies'' ===
In the fall of 1972, new one-hour episodes under the title ''[[The New Scooby-Doo Movies]]'' were created; each episode featuring a real or fictitious guest star helping the gang solve mysteries, including characters from other Hanna-Barbera series such as ''[[Harlem Globetrotters (TV series)|Harlem Globetrotters]]'', ''[[Josie and the Pussycats (TV series)|Josie and the Pussycats]]'' and ''[[Speed Buggy]]'', the comic book characters [[Batman]] and [[Robin (comics)|Robin]] (adapted into their own Hanna-Barbera series, ''[[Super Friends]]'', a year later), and celebrities such as [[Sandy Duncan]], [[The Addams Family]], [[Cass Elliot]], [[Phyllis Diller]], [[Don Knotts]] and [[The Three Stooges]]. Hanna-Barbera musical director [[Hoyt Curtin]] composed a new theme song for this series, and Curtin's theme remained in use for much of ''Scooby-Doo's'' original broadcast run. After two seasons and 24 episodes of the ''New Movies'' format from 1972 to 1973, CBS began airing reruns of the original ''Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!'' series until its option on the series expired in 1976.<ref name="STUEP1" />
