''Dynomutt'' was originally broadcast as a half-hour segment of ''The Scooby-Doo/Dynomutt Hour'' (1976–77), and a quarter-hour segment of its later expanded form ''Scooby's All-Star Laff-A-Lympics'' (1977–78); it would later be rerun and syndicated on its own from 1978 on. The cast of ''The Scooby-Doo Show'' appeared as recurring characters on ''Dynomutt'', assisting the Daring Duo in cracking their crimes. Originally distributed by Hanna-Barbera's then-parent company Taft Broadcasting, Warner Bros. Television currently holds the distribution rights to the series.

==Overview== Millionaire socialite art dealer Radley Crown (voiced by Gary Owens) and his mechanical pet dog Dynomutt (voiced by Frank Welker, who got the inspiration for the voice from the Gertrude and Heathcliff characters of Red Skelton) enjoy leisure time in their base of operations in Big City until alerted by the Falcon Flash. They then immediately dash to the Falcon's Lair (situated in Crown's penthouse), where they switch to their secret identities, the Blue Falcon and Dynomutt, Dog Wonder, respectively.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Sennett |first1=Ted |title=The Art of Hanna-Barbera: Fifty Years of Creativity |date=1989 |publisher=Studio |isbn=978-0670829781 |url=https://archive.org/details/artofhannabarber00teds/page/172/mode/2up |access-date=2 June 2020 |page=173}}</ref> The Blue Falcon and Dynomutt receive the report via TV screen from the secret GHQ of secret agent F.O.C.U.S. One (voiced by Ron Feinberg), jumps into the Falconcar and speeds into the fray against assorted evildoers.

In a coup similar to the 1960s ''Batman'' TV series, the first 10 minutes of ''Dynomutt'' ends with a cliffhanger wherein the Daring Duo, in the clutches of their foes, are subjected to a perilous fate which is resolved immediately after the commercial. Like many animated series created by Hanna-Barbera in the 1970s, the show contains a laugh track created by the studio.

The metallic dog employs a system of miniaturized transistors that allow him to extend his limbs or neck and use them to perform extraordinary feats; however, none of them ever work properly. "B.F." (as Dynomutt lovingly refers to him) is more Dynomutt's victim than his master, forever being hamstrung by the latter's insufferably clumsy mechanized mishaps, which often results in the Blue Falcon calling Dynomutt "Dog Blunder". Nevertheless, Dynomutt and the Blue Falcon, equipped with their arsenal of super gadgetry, manage to get the situation well in hand.

Three episodes had a crossover with ''Scooby-Doo''.

While the Blue Falcon and Dynomutt are on the trail of the mysterious Mr. Hyde, they encounter the Mystery, Inc. gang and Scooby-Doo (who are unaware that Mr. Hyde is a supervillain and not one of their typical "spooks"). In ''The New Scooby-Doo Movies''-fashion, they team up with the Blue Falcon and Dynomutt (who happens to be Scooby's hero) to stop Mr. Hyde, who has threatened to turn the population of the entire city into "Mr. Hydes" unless he is proclaimed mayor. Fred and the others find a clue (which turns out to be Willie the Weasel's glove), and the Blue Falcon deduces that Willie is Mr. Hyde. The Blue Falcon and Dynomutt have Mr. Hyde proclaimed mayor and pretend to turn themselves in so that Mr. Hyde will lead them to his secret lair and trick him into showing them the antidote to the Hyde formula. Willie the Weasel and his canine partner-in-crime "Snitch" manage to escape. The Blue Falcon and Dynomutt head to the Mayor's mansion to stop Hyde from retrieving his stolen loot. The Mystery, Inc. gang set up one of their infamous "Scooby traps" while the Blue Falcon and Dynomutt confront Mr. Hyde and Snitch. Dynomutt captures Snitch while the Blue Falcon and the Mystery, Inc. crew capture Willie the Weasel/Mr. Hyde.

===Appearances=== ====Television series==== * Gary Owens and Frank Welker reprise their roles of the Blue Falcon and Dynomutt in the ''Dexter's Laboratory'' episode "Dyno-Might". The Blue Falcon comes to Dexter when Dynomutt is heavily damaged during their fight with the supervillain Buzzord. Though Dexter obliges, Dynomutt destroys his laboratory, leading to Dexter deactivating Dynomutt and creating Dynomutt X-90 (also voiced by Welker), who becomes a fanatical vigilante using excessive and lethal force to deal with minor crimes such as parking violations, jaywalking, and littering. Dexter tries to help the Blue Falcon stop Dynomutt X-90, but after being cornered, Dexter reveals he built Dynomutt X-90 because he deemed the original a goofy sidekick. The Blue Falcon objects to Dexter's treatment of Dynomutt and reactivates the original Dynomutt, who helps Dexter deactivate Dynomutt X-90. * Dynomutt makes a cameo appearance in a photograph in an episode of ''Super Secret Secret Squirrel''. * The Blue Falcon appears in the ''Johnny Bravo'' episode "Johnny Makeover", voiced again by Gary Owens. * The Blue Falcon appears in ''Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law'', voiced by Maurice LaMarche.

Mystery Incorporated'' episode "Heart of Evil", respectively voiced by Troy Baker and Frank Welker. These versions were originally security guards at Quest Labs. After a robot dragon attacked Reggie, Benton Quest rebuilt him as a cyborg dog. While Dynomutt retains his personality from the original series, the Blue Falcon is depicted as a gritty and violent vigilante reminiscent of Batman in Frank Miller's ''The Dark Knight Returns''. * Dynomutt and Blue Falcon appear in the ''Scooby-Doo and Guess Who?'' episode "Scooby-Doo, Dog Wonder!", with Blue Falcon voiced by David Kaye impersonating Gary Owens while Frank Welker reprises his role as Dynomutt. * Dynomutt and Blue Falcon appear in the ''Jellystone!'' episode "Heroes and Capes", with Blue Falcon voiced by Rob Riggle.

====Films==== * Blue Falcon and Dynomutt appear in ''Scooby-Doo! Mask of the Blue Falcon'', with Welker reprising his role of Dynomutt once more. The duo was redesigned to be a film-within-a-film with two different iterations of the Blue Falcon. Owen Garrison (voiced by Jeff Bennett) is the star of the original TV series, who became embittered by Hollywood for rebooting his show as a dark and gritty film with actor Brad Adams (voiced by Diedrich Bader) in the lead role. Jack Rabble uses the identity of the Blue Falcon's arch-enemy, Mr. Hyde, to commit a daring heist before being foiled by Garrison and Scooby-Doo. * The Blue Falcon and Dynomutt appear in ''Scoob!'', respectively voiced by Mark Wahlberg and Ken Jeong.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://deadline.com/2019/04/scooby-doo-movie-scoob-ken-jeong-kiersey-clemons-join-cast-1202593116/|title=Ken Jeong & Kiersey Clemons Toon Up For Warner Bros.'
