Background

Doug premiered on Nickelodeon on August 11, 1991, where it ran until December 16, 1994 and in reruns until 1999, being the first Nicktoon. The creator of the show, Jim Jinkins, named the main character Doug after his godson, Doug Eckhardt.^{[citation needed]} The original version was moved to Nickelodeon's sister-station Noggin, and later to Nicktoons TV, where it ended in 2005. These seasons were produced between 1991 and 1994. In 1996, Disney produced new episodes following its acquisition of Jumbo Pictures.

These episodes aired on ABC's One Saturday Morning cartoon block from September 1996 to September 9, 2000. Several differences between the original and Disney versions exist. The Disney episodes featured a new theme song, and introduced a younger sibling in the Funnie family. Perhaps to account for time, Doug's age was changed to 12½ years old. Several other minor character changes were added, including a new haircut for Patti Mayonnaise and Connie Benge's weight reduction.
