The Fairly Odd Coaster is a Junior Wooden roller coaster located at Kings Island.

It was originally named "Scooby Doo" when the park opened in 1972 as part of "The Happy Land of Hanna Barbara". Since then, it has gone through a few changes, but the layout of the coaster has remained the same. It was renamed to "The Beastie" to coincide with the opening of The Beast and received some theming at the entrance. It was renamed as "Fairly Odd Coaster" and rethemed to the "Fairly Oddparents" to match with the Nickelodeon Universe overhaul in 2006.
