Scooby snacks were first available

September 13, 1969


Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! made its CBS network debut on this date.

Velma’s famous line, “My glasses, I can’t see without them!” was not originally scripted for the show. During a table read for the voice artists, Velma’s voice-over actress Nicole Jaffe, who was near-sighted as well, lost her glasses and uttered a variation of what became Velma’s famous catchphrase. The writers liked the line so much that Velma losing her glasses became one of the show’s trademark gags.
