Doug is a American animated sitcom that was created by Jim Jinkins and produced by Jumbo Pictures for the Nickelodeon network, as the first of their successful line of Nicktoons. Later on, the series was produced for Disney for airing on ABC's One Saturday Morning block.

Doug premiered on Nickelodeon on August 11, 1991, where it continued until December 16, 1994. In 1996, the series was picked up by The Walt Disney Company after Jinkins sold off his animation studio Jumbo Pictures to the aforementioned corporation, and the rights to the mentioned show with it. Disney ordered new episodes of Doug to be produced (renamed Brand Spanking New! Doug, and then later Disney's Doug) which was in production from 1996–1999

Several differences between the original and Disney versions exist. The Disney episodes featured a new theme song and added a younger sister, named Cleopatra Dirtbike Funnie, into 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 and a darkened skin tone for Patti Mayonnaise, and Connie Benge changed from a fat to a thin character. Less noticeable than Patti's new hairdo was the change in Doug's haircut, due to trademark considerations. The original Doug has eight hairs; Disney's Doug has nine. Other changes include Roger Klotz becoming rich, having lived poorly in a trailer park previously, the closing of the Honker Burger (a parody of the real-life In-N-Out Burger, though this would, however, be replaced by Swirly's), Mrs. Dink being the mayor (which was a change previously made during the course of the Nickelodeon series), and the Beets (a loose parody of The Beatles) breaking up. Doug's and Skeeter's clothing changed, too - Doug's t-shirt sleeves and brown shorts are extended and the lightning bolt on Skeeter's shirt became a zero, along with the colors of his clothes changing. The often mentioned but never seen Skunky Beaumont also becomes a prominent character. - Source
