'''''Clue Club''''' was a [[Hanna-Barbera]] cartoon that was an expy in largest part of ''[[Scooby-Doo (animation)|Scooby Doo]]'' in that it entailed a group of four kids tapping into crimes and mysteries that the local law enforcement seemingly can't solve themselves.
The group consists of Larry, the team leader; Pepper, the show's eye candy; D.D., a Velma [[Expy]] in a deerstalker cap but nowhere near as smart, and Dotty, the youngest member of the group and the team's troubleshooter. There are two dogs as well--Woofer (a bloodhound with a bravado complex) and Wimper (a basset who knows better). These two dogs can talk plain English to each other and other animals, just not humans. Sheriff Bagley is the baffled flatfoot who sees the Clue Club as more nosy than helpful but he takes his cap off to them when the crime is solved.
''Clue Club'' aired on [[CBS]] starting on August 14, 1976 (replacing ''Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!'', which moved to [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] a month later). After a season, the episodes were chopped down to ten minutes and used as a feature on ''The Skatebirds'', rebilled as ''Woofer & Wimper: Dog Detectives''. At mid-season, ''[[The Robonic Stooges]]'' (another ''Skatebirds'' feature) was given its own time period (retitled ''The Three Robonic Stooges'') and took ''Woofer & Wimper'' with them. In 1979, ''Clue Club'' returned to CBS, airing on Sunday mornings.
