Keep in mind that this Cartoon Network bumper was produced and aired around the same time as the 2002 live-action Scooby-Doo film which completely ruins Scrappy's character altogether to become even worse than he previously was. This infamous Cartoon Network bumper where he rants and holds grudges towards all the toons of the Cartoon Network on how he has been largely ignored by Cartoon Network, including the infamous scene of him making Dexter from Dexter's Laboratory cry at the end of the bumper.His voice performance by Lennie Weinrib is below average and pretty annoying with very little emotion and effort put into it, as he also speaks in an unnecessary Brooklyn accent.In fact, after the movie, he never came back in the Scooby-Doo franchise, except for brief cameos where he only exists just to reflect on how hated he has become after said movie by either having the onscreen characters hate him, have something bad happen to Scrappy for no reason whatsoever, or have Scrappy be an angry jerk to other characters, or both, thus completely downgrading this character.made him out to be in the 2002 live-action film, all because both James Gunn and Warner Bros. Scrappy may have been an obnoxious character in Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo (1979), but not to this extent of being diabolical like how writer James Gunn and Warner Bros.There was also a scene where he provided toilet humor, as he urinated on Daphne. However, his live-action version was horribly flanderized into an intentionally obnoxious and insufferable jerk with absolutely zero redeeming qualities whatsoever who holds an intense grudge against the entire gang (including his uncle Scooby) in the live-action film. He was originally an obnoxious and brave puppy with plenty of redeeming qualities in the Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo (1979) cartoon, but then he improved, where his good counterpart was a brave, kind, smarter, and only occasionally annoying puppy in the 1980s Scooby-Doo cartoons. Despite being absolutely hated, he was even made the villain in the first live action Scooby-Doo movie in order to mock his low popularity.
