Hanna-Barbera's 1970s originality is at work here, recycling the formats of JOSIE & THE PUSSYCATS and SCOOBY-DOO, with newly named characters living in the year 2076, a rock band named The Neptunes. Drawing on the mid '70s shark-mania of JAWS, the main character is Jabberjaw, a talking great white shark and The Neptunes' drummer. Frank Welker was Jabber's voice, an impersonation of Jerry 'Curly' Howard; the shark's personality drew on the characterization of Rodney Dangerfield.
Unless the city of Aquahama agrees to his blackmail demands, Dr. Lo will destroy it with his giant Gorgon dragon. Enroute to the city for a concert, the Neptunes are caught up in Lo's scheme and it's up to Jabberjaw to stop the monster.
