TV executive Fred Silverman said Scooby’s name was inspired by what famous singer?
Answer: Frank Sinatra ( Silverman told Emmy TV Legends how he was on a red eye flight to L.A. and couldn’t sleep. CBS had just rejected his idea of a group of teens and a dog trying to solve mysteries, so he was in the middle of coming up with new ideas. “As we’re landing, Frank Sinatra comes on [the PA], and I hear him say, ‘Scooby-doo-be-doo.’)
Winner: Tyler Kapinus of Elwood
