Ben was really good casting, a great successor to Mark Lenard.
Every day is a gift, not a given right.

Joe Ruby, the animation veteran who co-created the character of Scooby-Doo and oversaw Saturday morning children's programming at CBS and ABC, has died. He was 87.
A four-time Daytime Emmy nominee, Ruby died Wednesday at his home in the Westlake Village section of Los Angeles, his grandson Ben Ruby announced.
Ruby met Ken Spears when both were sound editors and then staff writers at the cartoon powerhouse Hanna-Barbera, and they created the supernatural kids show Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, which centered around a talking Great Dane and bowed on CBS in September 1969. All but four of the first 25 episodes were written and story-edited by them.
In the early 1970s, then-CBS president of children's programming Fred Silverman hired Ruby and Spears to supervise the network's Saturday morning cartoon lineup, and they followed the executive to ABC for similar duties in 1975. (Scooby-Doo joined that network's lineup as well.)
Two years later, ABC set up Ruby-Spears Productions as a subsidiary of Filmways, and the company launched Saturday morning animated series around such characters as Fangface, Plastic Man, Mister T and Alvin and the Chipmunks.Last edited by caj; 08-28-2020 at 07:01 AM.

This is so sad.
There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

I don't care that I didn't know him, never met him, that he was a celebrity. It still hits hard and I'm going to allow myself some tears tonight for Chadwick Boseman. He's even in my signature.
