Say I found the reasons why people hate Scrappy and I want you to figure out how these problems can be solved:

- He had too many lines. He usually had more dialogue in his cartoons than Scooby and Shaggy combined, which was a bad idea since those characters were much more established with fans.

- He told too many jokes. Not only did he have too many lines, but most of them were one-line "zingers." Worse than this was the fact the most of them just were not very funny. Fans do not like unfunny.

- He was a scene hog. In his cartoons, Scrappy just had to be in every scene. Moreover, he often ended up saving the day (which had been Scooby-Doo's role, althrough Scrappy always credited his uncle for the heroics regardless).

- Scooby-Doo fans hate that Scrappy’s energetic puppy personality completely overshadowed the rest of the characters. It doesn’t help that the plot of any Scrappy episode involves preventing him going totally aggro on the monster of the day.
