Jabberjaw (Running Underwater) is a Cartoon Network Groovie. It's a late 90s update of the Hanna-Barbera series Jabberjaw, with music performed by the ska band Pain.
This music video provides examples of:
- Abhorrent Admirer: The villainous eel that kidnaps Shelly does so because he becomes smitten with her when he sees her performing on stage.
- Damsel in Distress: Shelly is kidnapped by the evil eel.
- Demoted to Extra: Biff, Shelly, and Jabberjaw are the only members who get prominent roles in the short, making Clam and Bubbles this.
- Non-Mammalian Hair: Jabberjaw now has a brown goatee, despite being a shark.
- Self-Deprecation "Me and my friends get no respect! What does Scooby do that we neglect? We be puttin' all our foes in check, but me and my friends get no respect!"
- Setting Update: Jabberjaw And The Neptunes are updated from 1970s teens to late 1990s/early 2000s teens. More specifically, they're a part of a ska band.
- Shout-Out: Jabberjaw recreates the famous Jaws poster.
- Tank-Top Tomboy: The short's iteration of Shelly wears a white tank-top, and is noticeably more tomboyish than she was in the original Jabberjaw series.
