Shaggy is a lanky, Caucasian teenaged male; he is fairly light for his age—even [[Velma Dinkley]] can pick him up with her own hands. He seems to have a very long neck. He usually wears a green V-neck shirt, brown bell-bottom pants, and black platforms, but he is sometimes seen in a red v-neck shirt and blue-colored pants. He also has whiskers on his chin. During his time as a werewolf, his irises are bluish green.<ref>''[[Scooby-Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf]]'', television film.</ref>

Both Shaggy and [[Scooby-Doo]] have nearly insatiable appetites, as well as tendencies towards goofing off and cowardice. But [[Scooby Snacks]] usually satisfy them. Due to these similarities, Shaggy typically treats Scooby as a normal person rather than his pet. Shaggy uses his catch phrase "''Zoinks!''" whenever he's surprised or scared, which is frequently. He is sometimes encouraged by [[Shaggy Snacks]]. Although Shaggy enjoys a variety of food, he has been a vegetarian for much of his life.

[[Casey Kasem]] played Shaggy for a time where he was portrayed as a vegetarian, by request of Kasem, who is a vegan. In the past, Shaggy had a tendency to overeat and eat anything he could. Kasem disagreed with this portrayal, and in 1995 he walked out on the role when Shaggy and Scooby-Doo were to be portrayed in a Burger King commercial. He also did this because the producers of Scooby Doo would not turn Shaggy into a vegan, which Kasem is. Therefore he quit, later to rejoin the crew when they allowed Shaggy to be a vegan, only ten years later, in the series ''[[What's New, Scooby-Doo?]]''.

This article is about the original incarnation of Shaggy Rogers. For other incarnations, see Shaggy Rogers (disambiguation).

“ Did he just call me a hippy? ”

—Shaggy, Big Top Scooby-Doo!

Norville[1] "Shaggy" Rogers[2] is a member of Mystery Inc., and the owner and best friend of their team's mascot: Scooby-Doo, a talking Great Dane.

Physical appearance

For a full list of what Shaggy wears, see Shaggy's outfits and disguises.

Shaggy is a lanky, teenage male; he is fairly light for his age—even Velma Dinkley can pick him up with her own hands. He seems to have a very long neck. He also has whiskers on his chin, forming somewhat of a goatee. During his time as a werewolf, his irises are bluish green.[3]

He usually wears a green V-neck shirt, brown bell-bottom pants, and black platforms, in a red v-neck shirt and blue-colored pants. He has infrequently changed his outfit, from simply switching the colors of his outfit, with a t-shirt and blue pants, to an entire wardrobe change when at Albert Shaggleford's mansion, by wearing a white t-shirt with a dark green stripe and sleeves, an orange long-sleeved undershirt, lighter green cargo pants, and black and white sneakers.

Personality

Shaggy is something of a hippy due to his generally laid back persona, his hair, clothes, and his inappropriate use of slipping in the word "Like" in his speech. Even though throughout the years, he's tried to be the average teen, he's still stuck being labelled as a hippy.

He and Scooby-Doo have nearly insatiable appetites, as well as tendencies towards goofing off and cowardice. Due to these similarities, Shaggy typically treats Scooby as a normal person rather than his pet. Shaggy uses his catch phrase "Zoinks!" whenever he's surprised or scared, which is frequently. Most of the time whenever he's scared, he'd rather save himself and wouldn't help others, but is sometimes encouraged by either Scooby Snacks or his own personal Shaggy Snacks, or Scooby's disappointment in his attitude. Despite this, he would occasionally brag about his bravery and enjoys the attention. During his time at his Uncle Albert's mansion, he had to uncharacteristically summon a large amount of courage and bravery to repeatedly to stop Dr. Phineus Phibes's attempts at global domination, endangering innocent people's lives, and locating the missing Dr. Shaggleford, who had gone into hiding due to his arch-rival Dr. Phibes.

Although Shaggy enjoys a variety of food, he briefly took a stance as a vegetarian.

Skills and abilities

Although usually considered a coward, Shaggy often proves useful in ferreting out the "monsters" and "ghosts" that are usually at the heart of the gang's mysteries, sometimes inadvertently, and sometimes by reluctantly acting as "live bait" for a trap, providing a necessary distraction for their eventual capture. Shaggy also has disguise and ventriloquism skills, as well as being athletic, which often helps the gang; in the episode What a Night for a Knight, Daphne says that he is the best gymnast in school, and he has also mentioned that he ran track. He has even dressed up as Daphne and Scooby on at least one occasion (usually for Halloween or something similar.) He is even capable of doing certain vocal impressions, from the Ghost of Redbeard (Go Away Ghost Ship) to even a train in a tunnel (Mine Your Own Business). He is also able to fly a plane, however he got lost and flew to the Himalayas instead of Hawaii. (To All the Ghouls I've Loved Before)

Shaggy also has an enormous appetite, being able to eat in tremendously large quantities at a time.

Family and relatives

For a complete list of Shaggy's family members, look here. For other relatives, look here.

Romantic interests

There have been instances where Shaggy has noticed and gained the attention from the opposite sex over the years.

Occupation

Being only an amateur sleuth doesn't pay the bills, so Shaggy has had to find a source of income (and sometimes a profession if the gang decide to part ways for a while), and has taken on a variety of different jobs through his life. This is a list of them:

Behind the scenes

The inspiration for the character came from Maynard G. Krebs, a hippy character played by Bob Denver in the early 1960s sitcom The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis.[4] His surname was first published in stories by Marvel Comics, then became validated in cartoon form in the The New Scooby and Scrappy Doo Show episode Wedding Bell Boos!

His real name, Norville, was created by Tom Ruegger for A Pup Named Scooby-Doo.[5] The name came from Oliver Norvell Hardy.[6]

Voices of Shaggy

Casey Kasem played Shaggy for a time where he was portrayed as a vegetarian, by request of Kasem, who is a vegan. In the past, Shaggy had a tendency to overeat and eat anything he could. Kasem disagreed with this portrayal, and in 1995 he walked out on the role when Shaggy and Scooby-Doo were to be portrayed in a Burger King commercial. He also did this because the producers of Scooby Doo would not turn Shaggy into a vegan, which Kasem is. Therefore he quit, later to rejoin the crew when they allowed Shaggy to be a vegan, only ten years later, in the series What's New, Scooby-Doo?

On a series of Peter Pan Records read-along book-and-audio sets from the late 1970s, Duncan Robertson voiced Shaggy, while the other cast members of the show reprised their roles for the records.

Scott Innes and Billy West briefly took over the role in several of the direct-to-video films produced in the late 1990s and early 2000s. From 2006-2008, Scott Menville voiced Shaggy in the TV series Shaggy & Scooby-Doo Get a Clue!, while Kasem voiced Albert Shaggleford in guest spots. From 2010, Matthew Lillard had been selected to voice Shaggy Rogers, having previously played the role in the 2002 and 2004 live-action films.
