Poll question: A very important question...
Is "ruh-roh" from Scooby-Doo or Astro?


This is my first poll and my first lounge thread. Please be kind.

10. Alas
I think the facts would show you're mistaken. No offense.

I always thought it was Astro, and believe it or not, it was the topic of a bar fight. Well, not an actual stool-over-the-head kinda fightm, but an argument.

3. I think so....
The Jetson's was a 60's show, and I think Scooby Doo was a 70s thing. I could be wrong, though.

I suppose I could google it... but it's more fun to argue without facts.

5. You and Phentex are correct. Jetsons = 1960s, Scooby = 70s.
Astro was first.

4. You need a geezer ruling here

Astro.

He predated Scooby, and "Ruh roh Reorge" was a catch phrase for young Richardo and his brothers on Saturday mornings.

12. the vote is tied...
surprisingly. To me, it was stunningly obvious that it was Astro.

I guess the Gen-X folks rule here.

15. This is a great object lesson about on-line polls...
...just because the majority says it's so don't MAKE it so. :)

16. I'm pretty sure
it was Astro. But perhaps Scooby-Doo picked it up from there.
